Add documents to workspaces

Applies to MindManager used with Mindjet Connect.

When you add a document (map or file) to a workspace it is stored on the Mindjet Connect server, and is automatically available to all members of that workspace.

Add documents

You can add documents to workspaces in four ways:

  1. By creating new documents in Mindjet Connect.

  2. By saving documents from MindManager to a workspace.

  3. By importing them from your local system into a workspace.

  4. By copying, moving or sharing them from another workspace.

Maps and files you add to the workspace appear in the Documents lists of other members as new documents, with names in bolded type. When you select a document, its properties are shown below the Documents list on the Properties tab.

Maps in workspaces can automatically be viewed and edited by workspace members either separately or simultaneously, and the edits are immediately visible to anyone viewing the map.  If you wish to prevent other members from editing a map you can lock it.

Files (documents that are not maps) in workspaces can be viewed by members simultaneously, but can only be edited by one member at a time. Files always open in their associated application, and when opened for editing are automatically locked.

For more organized collaboration you can conduct an Instant Meeting.

To restrict an individual members' access to the documents in a workspace, an Owner can set an appropriate access level for each workspace member.
