MindManager views

MindManager offers 4 views for working with your map. Use the commands on the View tab, in the Document Views group,  to switch between the different views:

Map View

The program starts in Map View. This is the best view for creating and editing your map and for getting the big picture of what the map covers. This view displays all the components of your map including floating topics, relationships, images and boundaries. You will probably do most of your work in this view.

Outline View

The Outline View allows you to display and edit maps using a familiar visual form: topics are listed linearly from top to bottom. This view can be a helpful reference if you are just beginning to use MindManager.

If you plan to use an outline export format, (like Word) the outline view can be used to preview the map in a linear arrangement so you can make any necessary adjustments before the export. You may also print the map outline directly from this view.

This view is more limited than Map View: It excludes certain map components (floating topics, relationships, images and boundaries).

Multimap View

The Multimap View is used to view maps that are linked together by hyperlinks. It displays preview images of the current map and all the maps that it links to. (Other linked documents are displayed as placeholders). You can choose to display only the first level maps - those directly linked to this map - or maps at the second, third, or all levels.  

In this view you can issue commands on all of the maps or on only a selected subset. Note that these maps are shown as previews: only the first map is opened unless you subsequently open the others.

Presentation Mode

This view allows you to display and navigate through the map with a minimum of distraction. It switches to a full screen view for maximum map space, hides all menus and toolbars and provides shortcuts and options to make navigation smooth.
