No "print" option like in Box Notes
There's no way to export or print the Canvas. This ability exists in Miro, so if Canvas were to offer this, we could likely cut out our Miro licenses. This ability exists today in Box Notes, so it would make sense for it to be available in Canvas as well.

Automatic Box Canvas Creation Based on Instructions to Box AI
Currently, Box Canvas provides templates, but users still need to create the content themselves each time, which can be burdensome.
To further reduce user workload, I would like to request a feature that allows Box AI to automatically generate a Box Canvas output based on user instructions.
Box AIへの指示でBox Canvasを自動作成：
現在、Box Canvasにはテンプレートが用意されているが、ユーザー自身が毎回コンテンツを作成する必要があり、負担が大きいです。
ユーザーの負担をさらに軽減するために、ユーザーの指示に基づいてBox AIが自動的にBox Canvasを出力する機能を追加してほしい。20 votes -

Need to be able to pick my own RBG colors
The color options are very limited. If I were to use this for my company's diagramming tool of choice, we would need to be able to load in our own color palette.

Lock content areas
Add the ability for the board owner to lock some content so that people cannot move it by accident. It helps when collaborating on a board with multiple users.

3rd Party Integrations and Pull Data from Other Sources
We would love to see Box Canvas have robust integration capabilities (e.g. MS Suite, Zoom, Miro, Mural, etc.) It would be great if we had the ability to pull data in from other sources (for example, MS Excel) to Box Canvas.

Export objects from Box Canvas
It has become very convenient to be able to export the entire Box Canvas as a PNG file.
However, it would be even more useful if individual objects on the Canvas could be copied and pasted into PowerPoint as separate objects.

UX is slightly different than Box Notes
Notes from left pane takes you to your notes inbox. Canvas creates a blank canvas in your default save. It would be a more congruent experience if the UX matched

Adding custom shapes to Canvas
I would like to be able to add shapes to Canvas, for example the AWS shape library to mirror the behaviour of another white boarding tool we're currently using.
This would allow us to collaborate on complex architecture diagrams using very specific shapes/icons.
Some ways this could be introduced:
-shapes available to all Canvas users
- or the ability to add templates pre-populated with custom shapes
-or the ability to upload custom shapes for the entire instance7 votes -
Height and width of sticky notes in BoxCanvas
BoxCanvas sticky notes can only be resized in a square shape.
Although you can arrange sticky notes freely on the whiteboard, it is inconvenient that you cannot make them longer just vertically or just horizontally.
Set anchor points on the sides as well so you can resize it freely.

BoxCanvasの付箋は正方形の形でしかサイズを変更できません。ホワイトボード上に付箋を自由に配置できるのに、縦にだけ長くしたり横にだけ長くしたりできないのは不便です。側面にもアンカーポイントを設定して、自由にサイズを変更できるようにしてください。6 votes -

Functional improvement of Box Canvas

Visual indicator when Box Canvas user is just a viewer, not editor
When using Canvas as a viewer, the user may try to vote on the sticky notes, or try to locate the toolbar, and think that something is broken, when in reality they are looking for features available to editors only.
We should consider adding some visual indicator of the "view only" status e.g. a banner or a badge at the top, an icon over which a user can hover over to get more info, or an icon by the cursor arrow to indicate editing is disabled.

Create content "frames" in Canvas
Add a "frame" option as a new structural element distinct from a shape. Frames would allow you to move all the content inside it, and when you zoom out on a board, the caption of the frames should display so you can easily see all the frames and what they're about.

Choosing the navigation mode (trackpad or mouse) is not evident and the navigation is not natural when you are on trackpad mode but using a mouse. Ther should be an interface explaining it is possible to change it

Box Canvas Session Time Improvements
The session duration of the Box Canvas is affected by the "Session Duration for All Users".
Therefore, in Box Canvas, if you exceed the time set for "Session Duration for All Users", you will be returned to the login page when you refresh the Box Canvas page.
To avoid this, you will need to navigate the Box Web UI or refresh the page.
I'd like to see improvements so that the session doesn't time out while editing Box Canvas.【In Japanese】

回避するためには、Box Web UIの操作やページの更新を行う必要があります。
