Map templates can help you get a jump-start on creating a new map, and help you standardize the content of maps that you create frequently. MindManager comes with a set of commonly-used templates that appear automatically whenever you start a new map from the File tab menu. You can modify any of these templates to better suit your needs, or create your own templates.
What do you want to do?
Modify an existing map template
You can save any map you create as a Template.
Create a map with the content and formatting you want to use for the Template.
Click the File tab, click Save & Send, click Change File Type, and then click Save as MindManager Map Template.
Navigate to the location where you want to save the file, enter the File name, and then click Save.
If this is a new template, you may see the Properties Summary page where you can enter comments and other information about the template. When you click OK, the template is saved.
Make a note of this location in case you want to add the Template to the New Map dialog (it will be shown whenever you create a new map), add it to the Organizer, or send it to another user.
