Subtopics are used to provide details about their parent topic. They branch off other topics (including floating topics or a callout topics).
Add multiple levels of subtopics to provide increasingly detailed information about a topic. Then you can show information only to the desired depth using the Detail feature.
To add a subtopic below the current topic (its parent):
Select the parent topic.
Then, do any of the following:
Press Insert
Click the Insert
Topic
button pulldown and select Subtopic.
Right-click and choose Insert - Subtopic.
Click the Insert - Subtopic command.
Enter the new topic's text. (When the new topic appears on the map it remains selected so you can edit it right away.)
Hint: Use Shift+Enter to create multi-line text.
Press Enter when you are finished.
To add another subtopic at the same level (its sibling):
Select the sibling subtopic
Then, do any of the following:
Press Enter
Click the Insert
Topic toolbar button.
Right-click and choose Insert - Topic.
Click the Insert - Topic command
Enter the new topic's text. (When the new topic appears on the map it remains selected so you can edit it right away.)
Hint: Use Shift+Enter to create multi-line text.
Press Enter when you are finished.
Hint: To quickly create a new topic in front of (as the parent of) an existing topic in Map view, right-click on the topic and choose Insert - Parent Topic
Note: You can also paste text from other applications into MindManager to create topics. See Create topics by pasting text.
