Work with HTML5 maps

What do you want to do?

The HTML5 map export option allows you to easily share the content of your maps with anyone, leveraging the rich interactive format available in MindManager.

Note that not all map elements are supported. See the HTML map feature support table for more details.

HTML5 maps open in their own windows in your preferred browser. There are two viewing modes: Standard View and Presentation View.

Exported maps using the new HTML5 format can be opened in any major browser. See Supported environments for details. Read Note

Navigate a map in Presentation View

 

Presentation View provides easy-to-use navigation controls, so your audience can focus on the diagram content. Presentations start at the top-right topic and move down through the topics on the right side of the map. If there are topics on the left side of the map, the presentation moves from the bottom-most topic on the right to the top-left topic.

For organizational charts, the presentation starts at the top. When there are multiple topics on the same level, focus starts on the right and moves left.

For flowcharts, concepts maps, and floating topics, the presentation goes in the order the topics were created.
