Situation:
I am bringing in data from excel for a service blueprint, when doing this I copying many cells from Excel into Miro - the cells come through into Miro as sticky notes (great feature btw), I then have to convert them all to rectangles - unfortunately Miro can only convert a few columns of sticky notes at a time so I have to convert lots of small groups, this wastes a lot of time.
Idea:
When you do a paste (or paste-special) into Miro you get asked what type of 'shape' you want the cells to go into (sticky notes, rectangles, cards, stars etc).
Hi@Nick Logan , Thank you for raising this wish-list request. Can you provide more context as to why you need to import cells as shapes rather than sticky notes? Thank you!
We often want to visually represent different columns of data from an Excel into various shapes (with an option to play around with shape size & colour) during workshops.
We use sticky notes to write down all the thoughts & brain storming around that data point - but to represent that data it is best to visualise it in shapes and not get them mixed up with our notes (taken on post-its).
The visual representation through shapes helps to form a mental model for all participants: Circle = data type x (from column A); Rectangles = data type y (from Column C).
Hope this gives you some context.
Keen to know if there is a work-around that exists already.
Switch type solves this issue
