1. Mind Mapping Software

4. This is a Mindmap that I made using an example from the user guide. Root "parent" node ⇑ ➹ Child Nodes ➸ ➷ Menu Bar Formatting Bar

6. Let's get you started: When you open a New map ( Command N ) you will see a blank screen with a grey ellipse "node" that says New Mindmap . Click on the "node" and begin typing, this is the "Root node." A " Child " node branches off from the " Parent " (root) node. Go to Menu Bar> Insert> New Child Node A " Sibling " node is positioned at the same level of the reference. -To create a sibling node below the active node press Enter -To create a sibling node above the active node, press Shift+Enter

7. Collapse and open information on a node by clicking the circle. Drag nodes into different postions: by placing your cursor at the end of a node, an ellipse will appear, click on the ellipse, then drag the node into any position. Highlighting nodes with clouds: Select the node(s) of your choice, go to Insert > Cloud. Change the cloud color: Select the main node of the cloud, then go to Format > Cloud color > select color

8. You can change the color of your text. Format > Node Color > Select color

9. You can change the background color of your nodes. Format > Node Background Color > Select color

10. You can change the color, width and style of the lines to your nodes. Change the look of the lines from "fork" to "bubble" shapes.

11. Just another example-
