How to size Whiteboard in Confluence?

Rick S_

When I draw an embedded diagram in Whiteboard as part of a Confluence page, and that diagram has a "very landscape" shape, I would like to adapt the hight of the Whiteboard frame, so that the diagram "fills" the Whiteboard, instead of being a long worm, floating in an almost empty white space.

Of course, I still want to be able to work on the diagram and to adjust the Whiteboard shape accordingly.

How do I do that?

In my instance at least, it's not possible to change the size ratio of a Whiteboard that's embedded in Confluence. It always sticks to that 4:3 ratio.

Sounds like a cool feature request! I definitely tend to design my Whiteboards around this expected layout, but you're right, a more portrait aspect ratio would be way better for some designs.

Thank you, Adam,

Actually, I want to be able to set any ratio.

I would also like to do this. In my example I have embedded a whiteboard that contains a diagram consisting of a single row of flow-chart boxes. In my page (that also contains text) the whiteboard is a) huge and makes it impossible to put any text underneath the whiteboard, because the reader would miss it and b) permits scrolling, meaning that a reader could inadvertently scroll the whiteboard such that the diagram is not is not displayed.

What I need is a way to crop a diagram, and to make the embedded diagram static so that it can't be changed in the page in which it is embedded (it can be changed if you click through and edit the diagram page)

or even have the embedded whiteboard fit to its content and let the user do the spacing & alignment in his/her doc.
