You can add two types of markers to your maps - icons and tags - using commands on the Ribbon and in the Task Pane. An icon marker is a small image that gives information about a topic in a graphical, easily understood way. A tag is a brief notation that gives information by displaying the text below the topic. |

In the Task Pane, open the Map Markers group.
Use the 
and 
controls to expand and collapse marker groups.
Mindjet comes with a set of icon markers that you can use for coding your topics.
Select one or more topics.
On the Ribbon's Insert tab, click Icons and select the icon in the pull-down.
If you don't see the icon you want to use, click Organize Icon Markers to open the Task Pane. In the Task Pane Map Markers group, click on a marker in one of the Icon Markers groups.
You can assign several icons from different groups to a single topic, but you may only use one icon from each group. (Markers within the groups are mutually exclusive.) The Symbols group is an exception: You may assign more than one marker from this group to a topic.
Select the topic.
Do one of the following:
Right-click the icon, and then click Change. In the Task Pane, click on a different icon in the same group as the icon you want to change.
Click the icon on the topic to cycle through other icons in that group. Press SHIFT and click to cycle in reverse.
Right-click the marker on the topic.
Then do one of the following:
Click Remove to remove this single marker from the topic.
Click Remove All to remove all the markers from the topic.
To copy a marker, drag the marker to a different topic.
To move it, hold CTRL as you drag it.
You can create your own groups of tags to use. A group is usually a category or class, and the marker names within the group are its sub-categories.
Example:
You could create the group "Sample size"
with markers named "0-1" ,
"2-5" , "6-10" , ">10" .
These would display beneath the topics
as:
Sample
size: 0-1
Sample
size 2-5
... and so on.
In the Task Pane, open the Map Markers group.
Under Tags click Add Tag Group.
Enter the Group name.
Click Add.
You can add new tags to a new, empty group, or to an existing group.
Right-click the group name in the Task Pane's Map Markers group, and then click New Tag.
Enter the Name for the tag, and then click Add.
Repeat these steps to add more tags.
Select one or more topics.
Click on a marker in one of the Tag groups.
You can assign several tags to a single topic, from one or more groups. (Markers within groups are not mutually exclusive.)
Right-click the tag on the topic, and then click Remove. (This removes all tags.)
Select the topic, then click the tag to remove in the Markers pane.
In the Task Pane, right-click the marker you want to rename or remove.
Click Rename Tag or Delete Tag.
In the Task Pane, right-click the group name, and then click Delete Group.
In the Task Pane, right-click the group name, click Rename Group, and then enter the new name. Group names on the map will update automatically.
