Prompt for Map Properties on first
save
Automatically displays the map Properties dialog for each new map, where
you can enter information about the map.
Always create a backup copy .BAK before
saving maps
When you select the option to create backup files, a backup file with the
extension .BAK is created from the previous version of the file each time
you save it. This means that if you have some sort of computer disaster
or save a map with changes you later regret, you always have the previous
version available. You can open this file in the normal Open
dialog and then save it with the proper name to restore it.
Save
AutoRecover info every x
minutes:
You can specify how often you want to save AutoRecover info. This
info is used to restore your maps if MindManager is closed abnormally
(i.e. if the power goes out or if your computer crashes). When MindManager
restarts, you can specify to restore a map or just use the previous (last
saved) version.
Default document location:
The default location for opening maps and saving your maps and exported
files.
Compression on saving:
The Compression setting is very similar to one found in common file archiving
tools (e.g. WinZip). Compression decreases file size, but can result in
files taking a longer to open, although this will only be noticeable with
large files.
Compression increases on the following continuum: Super Fast (least compression),
Fast, Normal, Maximum (most compression).
The normal setting is usually appropriate, but you may want to change this
when working with extreme document cases. For example, if your map has
a large number of big raster graphics Fast or Super Fast will be more
appropriate, since raster graphics are already compressed by jpeg/png
algorithms. On the other hand, if you have a large map (thousands of topics)
that is primarily text Maximum compression may save some disk space.
Encoding on saving:
The Encoding setting is used when integrating MindManager documents into
third-party tools that use either plain XML files or that process MMAP
archives to extract the XML content. In these cases the XML processor
may expect a certain type of encoding which can be selected here.
User interface customization:
If you reset the user interface customization, the Quick Access toolbar
and ribbon will return to their normal state the next time you start MindManager.
Save checked out documents to:
Controls where checked out documents are saved:
either locally in the Server drafts location on your system, or remotely
on the document management server.
Saving checked out documents locally speeds the save process (no waiting
for the server) and enables you to continue editing the checked-out document
locally if you are offline. All your changes are saved to the server when
you check in the document .
Opening SharePoint files:
Refresh Map Roll-ups On Open, if
enabled, automatically refreshes all map roll-ups when you open the map.
Treat UNC paths as SharePoint servers,
if enabled, checks to see if the network location you open a map from
is a SharePoint server. If it is, then MindManager offers options for
document check-out and check-in in the files > Info menu.
This check can cause a slight delay on opening documents, so if you are
not opening maps from SharePoint servers, you should disable it for best
performance.
