Predefined rescaling options

Related products:Fonts & Text editing

While most of the tool is pretty awesome, there is one thing that bothers me a bit.
 

Even tho the minimum and maximum zoom level are very far apart,

I find myself ending up with boards that i started at a

scale that will be too large or too small at some point.

 

As a result, I am resizing the whole content.

This will put all font sizes to sizes that are not part of the standard size set.

I think it would be great to be able to double or half the scale of a selection.

 

For now that would still create some font sizes that are not available by default.

Maybe the missing ones could be added?

Was it helpful?

It's about the only thing I think that doesn’t work well - there is something fundamentally wrong with the scaling/starting point when creating new boards that confuses everyone or creates problems, I think this needs a lot of consideration - not to lose the flexibility but perhaps some options - even the ability to set the initial scaling or perhaps lock it (so only allow zooming in for instance - sometimes you need that control and not an infinite whiteboard…

I 100% echo this. It’s the most frustrating thing about Miro. I thought the wireframe objects weren’t working until I realised that they were simply just too small to see at the scale I’d found myself at.

Similarly you end up with microscopically thin connector lines that no amount of tweaking the line thickness will make look sensible.

Being able to reset the scale would be a huge deal.

I absolutely agree, this is something that needs to be fixed.  I too found myself at a tiny scaling level where dropping new items (like an image file to upload) renders at a pixel and I cannot find it!

Resetting the scale would be massive and really help me out, I guess I would have to resize everything which is totally impractical on a complex board with weeks of work


Agree! The feature is so useful and I think not so hard to implement.
