PDF & PNG Export for Canvas
When finalizing a session using visual collaboration, it's often required to export the end product to be able to share with non-Box users, and possibly to upload as attachment to other applications. A PDF (possibly PNG) export feature would be great additions.

Canvas feature improvements
After trying Canvas it looks like in order to get more use out of this compared to other open white board on the market it really does need allow more flexibility and improvements such as:
- Ability to allow GIF's for presentations.
- Allow links/ bookmark to files within box within a text box.
- Allow preview box of a video or crop a video within box to show a snippet of the video for presentation.
- Allow a preview link/ bookmark to Audio file to play.
- Currently drawn notes or shapes only allow corners to expand, it would help to add in side…

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.

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.

Consumes a lot of PC resources.
I am using BoxCanvas in low-resolution mode.
It is Windows with a core i5 CPU and 8GB memory.
I use Chrome as my browser, but it consumes a lot of CPU and memory. I would like to be able to use it comfortably without a high spec machine.8 votes -
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.

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

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.

Need to be able to click and drag to select multiple shapes
If you're only selecting a couple shapes, clicking and holding down Shift works just fine. However, if you need to move a bunch of shapes or content, the ability to click and drag to highlight multiple would be helpful.

Explain navigation mode
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

I would like to be able to create tables in Box Canvas.
I would like to be able to create tables in Box Canvas.
This is requested because if tables can be easily created like in Box Notes, they can be used more conveniently as whiteboards.Box Canvasにて表を作れるようにしてほしい。

Improve copy and paste behavior
Improve how elements are positioned when you duplicate them. For example, place a duplicated post-it in the next 'row' position, rather than overlapping the initial post-it. This would make the creation of boards for workshops much faster.

Add custom images by browsing to images already stored on Box.
Allow users to add custom images by browsing to images already stored on Box. Canvas currently only allows users to import custom images from a computer. This increases the complexity of using Canvas, decreases the value of storing media files in Box, and, makes Canvas seem more like 3rd party tool than a Box feature/function.

canvas sharing outside the organisation
Currently one of the great things about other canvas style products is to be able to share it outside the organisation and to be able to invite a guest to contribute/edit the document.
Currently the external user needs to have a box account I believe.
Also a nice to have would be the ability to copy from Miro to Canvas

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 instance1 vote -
