Not sure if this has been suggested but i'd like to be able to size things exactly rather than using the handles to drag and size.

Would just be useful to keep uniformity of text boxes, stickies, shapes, pictures etc...

  • Hi Cris B

    I have the similar request.

    I want to do it quickly though - that means that you can aline a specific group fo sticky notes, designs into a specific size.

  • I would like to

    • Set width or height to a specific value with an option to retain aspect ratio or proportion or even distort the image.
    • Set object to the same size of the first selected item
  • Definitely. If you've done any design work at all the inability to size objects exactly is crazy-making. Also being able to size objects exactly helps with planning board layout.

  • Agree entirely.

  • 1000% agree! It is frustrating when creating multiple process maps in Mural, as it is a more "user friendly" tool than Visio, but it doesn't have so many of the robust features I am accustomed to in Visio, like being able to resize all of the icons to an exact size (not just resize to biggest or smallest) and having it not ruin all of the connections.

  • I signed up to the community specifically to request this.

    With shapes and text boxes I'd really like to be able to change the width or height by just typing '50' or '500' - especially if I have a bunch of shapes selected at once and I just want to make them all the same size.

    I LOVE Mural, but I do feel like I end up spending too much time trying to get all the shapes to a uniform height/width etc.

  • I have to create picture-heavy mood- and research boards at the beginning of every project.

    I second BrettM proposed features:

    • Set width or height to a specific value with an option to retain aspect ratio or proportion or even distort the image.
    • Set object to the same size of the first selected item

    Please, relieve my OCD and add this! 🙏

  • Yes, number one request! Thank you!
