Jan 28 Web Release: Bulk edit objects, easily identify facilitators & stay focused in Private Mode
Bulk edit objects of same type faster, easily identify facilitators, stay focused during Private Mode, and bug squashing
New Features
🎳 Bulk edit objects of the same type faster
Now, you can easily select only objects of a certain type. Simply select a group of various objects and then choose the type of object to filter by from the toolbar. No more clicking individual objects to select only one type of object. Now, you can edit all of the selected objects at once.
🔸 Quickly switch between shapes and sticky notes
Simply click on a sticky note or shape and switch it to any other sticky note type or shape from the object’s toolbar.
Enhancements
⭐️ Easily identify the facilitator with a star
We’ve added a star next to facilitators’ names on their cursor so that collaborators can easily identify who the facilitators are. Now, it’s even easier to know who to ask for help, permissions, and more.
🕹 Stay focused during Private Mode without seeing collaborators’ cursors
MURAL will now automatically hide all cursors during Private Mode to keep things truly private and help participants focus. If the cursors were being broadcasted before Private Mode started, ending Private mode will switch them back on automatically afterwards.
🔎 Find useful, relevant templates more easily
You will now see templates sorted by popularity when browsing the templates tab in the dashboard.
🎉 Celebrate is back to its original confetti
While we’ll miss the snowflakes, the party continues with MURAL’s original celebration confetti.
