Layers

Related products: Navigation

Hi!

I have a case with a complex flow with multiple steps, each step is a set of sticky notes that sort or overlap. I have been copying and pasting each step. If something changes I have to change it in all the copies, though this could be easily done with layers.

 

Thank you,

Johnatan

+1 to nested frames please. If there’s an original ticket that are you are tracking, please provide the link and I’m happy to upvote it.


Just agreeing with the need for layers


I really miss the ability to have objects on layers. These layers could be switched on and off so that you could show all items that are of a certain type.

 


layers

it would be great if we can have objects that we can share across layers

 

so I document data flows, from the data source to the reporting data base and then from the reporting database to and through the reporting tool, it can get very busy with lines going to and from lots of objects.  It would be good to be able to have ETL lines on one layer and the reporting lines on another where the ‘shared’ boxes/objects were on both.


I don’t need layers but frames within frames would be so useful to help me organize multiple session or artifacts into a larger narrative or structure.


Because layer functionality is partly about sync’ing and hiding information in groups I wanted to share my updated widget sync plugin on the marketplace: https://miro.com/marketplace/carbon-copy/

It would be possible to have different shaped widgets cover various parts of your information, then reveal them by changing only one widget’s colour.

This is part of a neat new feature which behaves a little like overrides on components/symbols. We tried sync’ing groups of widgets as that would offer a degree of layer like functionality but it’s unreliable so we gave up.

Best wishes,

 The most missing feature for me are true layers and layer management.

If Miro had that we could probably drop other tools like Gliffy, draw.io, Visio, Archi and consolidate in Miro.


Layers is one features that’s holding us back from consolidating on Miro.


I’m working in design and it would be nice to have layers like in Illustrator that you can hide and work with.


Another one for layers, please.
It’s one of the things that’s stopping using MIRO for pretty much all our diagramming needs


+1 layers and layer management (ordering, hiding/displaying).


I’d love to see layers here. My thoughts on the problems this would solve

 

1 - When working with teams to create complex diagrams (e.g. process flows) I like to use dotted lines to call out text based commentary on some of the sticky notes we connect with more detail. I’d like to be able to turn this off and just see the headline flow in a clean version

2 - I’d like a private layer. A private spot for my thoughts which the rest of the team dont see. That could be who I’m thinking of assigning tasks to, answers to questions for students or just my own notes

3 - I often want to reveal things in stages, almost like an interactive presentation. That could be done similarly to powerpoint animations by assigning items to a layer and controlling how layers become visible. Think of the pub quiz when questions appear one at a time then answers linked to them

 

The main issue is we still need the functionality to link items across layers - they cant just be static. For instance my private layer should maintain connections to items in a shared layer even if the items have moved around


The need for reordering, hiding, and managing layers within a frame is super vital. Perhaps take some insight from Photoshop and other image/graphic manipulating platforms to help gather inspiration for this. 

For me, there is a tremendous need to offer the ability to adjust objects and frames by various layers well beyond “send to back” or “send to front”. 


yes +1 for layers and nested, collapsible  frames!

Any updates on layers? I feel like this should be #1 priority lol


Totally Agree !
Similarly to all design applications (Photoshop, Affinity Designer, Procreate, you name it), we need to be able to organise elements in layers. We could then :

  • Lock layers
  • Display layers at will
  • Group layers
  • Position layers above/under one another

Layers would enable us to:

  • Efficiently (and safely) lead a workshop where you make participants build over the previous step
  • Handle complex / rich linkage between elements (in a stakeholder map for instance - in BPM) and be able focus the attention on a particular group of links
  • Quickly lock / unlock elements at will,
  • Highlight the difference between 2 versions of a board (as easily as switching from Layer 1 & Layer 2).

 

Wouldn’t it be Brilliant !?


Agreed, this is a need within MIRO for complex growth of boards and to provide 3 dimensional views of states of architecture, products, systems.


Absolutely need the layers to reduce the initial complexity of my diagrams. I want to be able to show people diagram with current problems and again with solutions but, for now I need to copy the diagram and change things etc...


please, Please, PLEASE LAYERS! Too many use cases to list, in fact all mine have been described already! LOVE Miro. Don’t make me go back to Luc… “Friends don’t let friends LucidChart!”


Yea please! Sent to back / Send to front just doesn’t quite cut it for efficiency.


Was literally just speaking to someone last night about this again! This would be soooo useful and save time.


Doing research for my BA paper. Want to be able to cross reference lots of geographic points on a map. Would have been SO nice to do it with layers. One layer for each kind of data on the map.
Also, different map colors in layers.
Just came here to cheer this on.
LAYERS LAYERS LAYERS! <3


Love Miro, but must go to Draw.IO to visibly turn layers on and off 😞 for this one.
