MindManager comes with a set of pre-installed add-ins that extend its functionality. These software modules add commands to the MindManager ribbon, to the Microsoft Office applications ribbons (or menus), and to Microsoft Internet Explorer. Additional add-ins may be provided by Mindjet or third-party vendors.
MindManager commands that come from add-ins include:
The Microsoft Office integration features (also add buttons to the Microsoft Office applications)
Numbering topics
Sorting topics
In MindManager, these features are automatically enabled when you install MindManager, but you can subsequently disable and re-enable them in the MindManager Add-Ins options dialog
In the Microsoft Office applications and Internet Explorer, the Send to Mindjet MindManager commands come from add-ins and are automatically enabled when you install MindManager.
If you are experiencing difficulties using the Microsoft Office add-ins see Troubleshooting Office add-ins.
Transformations enable the conversion of a map to a text-based format and vice-versa. Like Add-ins, transformations add commands to the MindManager interface and appear as an integrated part of the application.
MindManager Pro provides two transformations (accessible from the Files of type: list in the Save dialog) that convert a MindManager document into a text-based outline . You can choose Outlines - Plain Text to create a text outline of your map, or Outlines - Web Page to create an HTML outline. Additional transformations may also be provided by Mindjet and by third-party vendors. You can enable or disable transformations in the MindManager Transformations options dialog.
Additional capabilities can be added to MindManager through the use of MindManager Macros. Macros differ from add-ins in that they are not separate applications: they are a set of commands that direct MindManager to perform certain actions. Macros, like add-ins can be provided by Mindjet or third-party vendors, but they can also be created using the Macro editor provided with MindManager. To add, delete, and modify macros on the Tools tab, click the Macro arrow, then click Organize Macros.
Use the Macro editor
On the Tools tab, click Macro, then click Macro Editor.
The editor comes with its own help file, accessible from the editor's main toolbar.
You can download additional macros, add-ins, and transformations from the Mindjet Web site's Solution Exchange.
On the Tools tab, in the Help group, click Online Support, then click MindManager Community.
