Open attachments

To edit or view an attached document you must open it from within MindManager. The document will open in its associated application. It can be opened in either the standalone application or within the built-in MindManager Browser pane.

Open an attachment

Do one of the following

Use the built-in Browser

You can open attachments of supported file types in the MindManager Browser pane. Supported file types include Microsoft Office documents, text files, and any other files (such as HTML files) that can be opened by the browser. You can edit Microsoft Office attachments directly in the browser, then save them to include the changes in the map.

To use the built-in browser for attachments:

Attachments that cannot be viewed by the Browser will open outside of MindManager in their native applications.

Override the Use Built-in Browser for Attachments option

To open an attachment outside of MindManager when the Use Built-in Browser for Attachments option is enabled:

Open an attachment externally from the Browser window

If want to open an attachment that is displayed in the Browser externally in its native application, click the  Open Outside MindManager button on the Browser toolbar.
