SharePoint site connections and options

 

Note: You will only have access to MindManager's SharePoint features if you are using MindManager Enterprise. If another user shares a map with you that includes SharePoint icons, those icons may be disabled.

You do not have to define a site in advance to use it - each wizard gives you the opportunity to define new sites as you need them, and automatically adds them to the list.

Options

Open SharePoint item in: determines how SharePoint items are displayed in the browser when you click the link to open the item on your map in SharePoint. Choose the mode that best suits your needs

Display SharePoint Map Part as: determines whether the map parts are initially  shown as expanded or collapsed topics.

Enable Periodic Refresh Interval: determines how often the map parts refresh automatically. Frequently refreshing a map with many SharePoint topics can slow your system's performance. If you are working with large maps, you may prefer to disable this feature and refresh your map manually.

Refresh on Map Open: automatically refreshes SharePoint topics on the map when you open it. You may prefer to disable this option when working with large maps.
