Open attachments

To edit or view an attached document you must open it from within MindManager. The document will open in its associated application. It can be opened in either the standalone application or within the built-in MindManager Browser pane.

Mindjet Catalyst:
Attachments in Mindjet Catalyst workspace maps open as read-only files: You can view them but you cannot edit them.

Open an attachment

Click on the topic's attachment icon and click Open: filename where filename is the document you want to open. (If there is only one attachment it opens automatically.)

You cannot open an attachment unless it is associated with an application installed on your system that can edit and view this file type.

Use the built-in Browser

You can open attachments of supported file types in the MindManager Browser pane. Supported file types include Microsoft Office documents, text files, and any other files (such as HTML files) that can be opened by the browser. You can edit Microsoft Office attachments directly in the browser, then save them to include the changes in the map.

To use the built-in browser for attachments:

The Browser uses your system's Microsoft Internet Explorer security settings.

Attachments that cannot be viewed by the Browser will open outside of MindManager in their native applications.

Override the Use Built-in Browser for Attachments option

To open an attachment outside of MindManager when the Use Built-in Browser for Attachments option is enabled:

Open an attachment externally from the Browser window

If want to open an attachment that is displayed in the Browser externally in its native application, click the Open Outside MindManager button on the Browser toolbar.
