From YouTube: Mural: The Basics For Design Sprints

Description

A quick walkthrough of Mural's basics for Remote Design Sprint participants.

A

Hello, this is Justin Mandel, the UX manager for the package configure and monitor groups. I wanted to take a minute to walk you through how will be using mural during our design sprints. The first thing I'd like to show you is the outline you can access the outline here, toggling it on or off.

A

The outline allows you to quickly jump to an area on the mural board, using the outline will also automatically zoom the board in on the selected section. So it fills your browser window allowing you to focus on the task at hand.

A

Next I'd like to show you how to create stickies. The bread-and-butter of using mural double clicking anywhere on the board will automatically create a new three by three sticky and the color that was last selected. In this case the default yellow. You can change the properties such as color or size, using the menu.

The next thing I'd like to show you is how to copy dots for the exercises in which require you to vote, and some of the exercises we'll be working on during our design. Sprint we'll be asking you to vote on which items do you think are the best of the best to do that.

A

We've supplied a dot or a smiley as a starting point when the facilitator is ready, they'll instruct you in how many votes you're allowed at this point, you'll need to copy and paste the number of dots or Smiley's that you're allowed to an open area of your choosing, ctrl or command C to copy.

A

Ctrl or command V to paste.

A

When the facilitator is ready for you to vote, simply move these dots to the item, you want to vote on and drop them directly on.

A

Continue doing this until you're out of votes, you can always move your vote. If you change your mind, just try not to move someone else. That's by accident.

A

Speaking of finding a place to cut and paste or voting doubts, we've supplied a space on the mural board. That should be an open enough to allow the whole team room to work.

A

However, any open space on the board will do. That's it. Those are the basics. You'll need to use mural during our design sprint. If you have any questions, please feel free to post them in the design, sprint issue or directly to your facilitator. Thanks for your time and happy spreading.
