Using the Balsamiq macro

Once you have created a new project, the Balsamiq macro will appear on your Confluence page.

The macro looks like a plain image, but hovering it will reveal a control bar that allows you to launch the editor on the selected wireframe or review and comment in Full Screen.

Editing existing wireframes

There are two ways to open the Balsamiq editor:

  1. Click the “edit” icon from the macro control bar (as shown above).

  2. Edit the wiki page, then double-click the macro or click the "Edit" button.

Using the Balsamiq macro editor

Once you have created a new project, the Balsamiq macro editor will be accessible from the Confluence page editor. Edit the Confluence page, click the macro and press Config.

The macro editor lets you configure the views of the Balsamiq project that will be shown in the Confluence wiki page.

You can chose to show a thumbnail grid or, if you are using the single wireframe view, you can configure the initial wireframe, its size and alignment. You can also launch the Balsamiq Editor and continue to edit your project.

To add multiple views on the same project, just add more macros and select a different wireframe in the Starting Wireframe pulldown.
