Product Questions

I have a google sheet that I have linked in Lucid. It was working yesterday but as of today when I make changes to the google sheet it no longer updates my Lucid document. I have multiple sheets I have made and tested them in multiple new Lucid documents and they no longer update.

I'm unable to zoom in/out with my trackpad OR the scroll wheel on my mouse and instead have to manually move the slider bar each time I want to reorient my page. The mouse and trackpad both just allow me to scroll up/down on the page not in/out. Based on all of your Help Center and Community posts it seems that this shouldn't be the case and it definitely makes work within Lucidchart clunky and kind of a pain. What am I doing wrong? Please don't refer me to your "Documents Settings" help page as this doesn't answer the question. 

Sorry for asking such a basic question. Is there a way to set a "favorite settings" such that every workspace I open with starts with my preferred settings such as curved lines landscape mode with a specific X by Y size and preferred shape libraries? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I am having trouble with my Lucid. It was linked on my assignment page but unfortunately, when I clicked the link there an error on the screen will appear.This picture appears on my screen. I needed a help because my assignment is will be due next week and I haven’t started doing it.

Is there any feature that helps resize/arrange flowcharts as new info is added, so they fit on a certain paper size (8.5x11, A4, etc)?  I can manually manipulate things, but it would be nice if the software could help me adjust the flowcharts as new decision points and tasks are added, such that it still fits on the page size I need to print.

WebGL failure on Android Mobile app, cannot open documents. The app also causes failure in Chrome browser when installed. If I uninstall the app, I can open my documents normally in the Chrome browser on my phone, but after installing, I can't open documents in Chrome or in the app. I have a personal subscription.

This is VERY basic functionality that I expect in any drawing process mapping or engineering tool... to be able to align a selected set of objects to a vertical or horizontal guide.  Align to the object centers -- without considering text label as part of the object boundary.  With Visio Enteprise Architect AllClear and other tools this is easy.  It is how I clean up the diagram and make it look professional quality.   I don't see this capability in LucidChart.   After drawing in LC I would have to export (or as LC says "download") the entire file to Visio do the alignments in Visio to clean up the object layout and then re-import into LC.  This approach presents many other problems because the fidelity of import and export is not perfect so there's a lot of time-consuming cleanup. FOLLOWUP to CARSON's RESPONSE: Carson's answer simply states that Guides exist and Snap to Guide for manually moving objects not multiselect and then "Sn

I’m trying to attach an icon to my boxes in my org charts. For instance, if I meet with someone, I want to have a meeting icon, If it went well, I want a thumbs up icon. When I do this, it works but it doesn’t attach to the box so the next time change the org chart, the icon ends up somewhere else. It doesn’t give me an option to group them. Here is an example of what I want to do. Any ideas?

Our users are experiencing issues rendering Epics from Jira in Lucid Sparks.  It keeps churning indefinitely.  Oddly, it renders and loads quickly for every other issue type, but just not Epics.  There is no configuration I can change on the Jira side, so I wanted to ask if anyone in the community has experienced this. 

I want to bold a letter that represents a vector in a LaTeX equation. But when I use \bf to make it bold, it changes the letter to normal, non-slanted type. Is there a way to have letters bolded and italicized in an equation? This is what I enter: {\bf x} = \begin{bmatrix} x_1 \\ \vdots \\ x_n \end{bmatrix}.  

While working around the annoying lack of proper support of layers within presentation builder-- with pages (select the desired layers for a slide, duplicate the page, rename it to “slide-1”, go back to the original, select the desired layers for the next slide, duplicate the page, rename it to “slide-2”, etc)-- and then, trying to export the slide pages…...to PDF, I get some ghost shapes: (I don’t know where this the dark rectangle comes from or how to get rid of it)...and to PNG, the quality just fecal:(all the boxes are actually the same, and should be like the top right one) ...So, why? (I am willing to share my document with anyone willing to invest

I cannot find Layout Style that includes Spacing in my toolbox.  Is that restricted to a larger subscription?  I only see Shape Style, Employee Fields and Reporting. 

Hello all!I’m creating a HLD for a network and want to label each link (line) with text I want this text / it’s pill to be a hyperlink.   If this is not possible, is there some way to anchor an object (text box or even an invisible rectangle) which does have the hyperlink to the line / text?ie.  I want a user to be able to click the text on a line to follow a link and for the text and the link to be anchored to the line

I think it is odd to report a bug as a question, but Lucid does not have a way to report bugs any more, so this is the best I can do. This is not a question. This is a bug report.When pasting text into a shape whose size has been set, the shape changes size, shape, and location. Steps to reproduce:Add a standard shape to a drawing, e.g., a rectangle from Standard Shapes or a Process rectangle from the Flowchart shape set. Carefully and painfully adjust the size of the rectangle so it is just how you want it. Copy some text from another shape, for example a shape that is exactly the same size as the shape you just made. Paste this text into the new shape.Expected result:The text is pasted into the shape. The shape retains its carefully and painfully adjusted size. As a customer, I expect shapes to retain the size I carefully and painfully set them to. If I paste text that overflows the existing shape size
