Parent map part topic

SharePoint map part parent topics display the name of the map part as the topic text. You can edit this text to reflect the filter you are using, for example to change "Tasks" to "High Priority Tasks".

The source site used for this topic is displayed as Custom Properties. You can show or hide this using the Showsp_prop_hide.bmp  / Hide sp_prop_show.bmp  icon on the topic.

You can add other subtopics (besides the results topics) to this topic. These topics are not affected when the map part is refreshed.

To modify the filter used by this topic, right-click the SharePoint map topic icon sp_icon_16.png .

Results topics

SharePoint map part results topics display the name of the associated SharePoint item as the topic text. This text is read-only.

Information for each item is displayed as Custom Properties. You can show or hide these properties using the Showsp_prop_hide.bmp  / Hide sp_prop_show.bmp  icon on the topic.  You cannot edit the results topic's Custom Properties.

You can add subtopics to SharePoint results topics. These subtopics are not removed on refresh unless their parent results topic is no longer displayed (because the item no longer meets the filter criteria, or it because it was deleted in SharePoint).

Task topics

In addition to item properties and notes, task items display Priority and Percent Complete information as map markers. Task topics are the only topics that feature two-way communication with SharePoint for these attributes.

When you change either of these markers on a SharePoint task topic in MindManager, the associated task is updated in SharePoint when the parent topic is refreshed.

MindManager task Priorities 4 and 5 are mapped to SharePoint priority 3.

If you have used the MindManager Task Management options (in the Task Info pane) to designate any of your SharePoint tasks as Roll-up tasks, they will not be synced with SharePoint when the map part is refreshed.
