Hello
I was wondering, can I somehow change the map I have created into a text file or a table or something. In a word, something that is not an image, but a text of some sort. For some reason my boss doesn’t approve of pictures, schemes and mind maps. He says, they’re not serious enough. But I think using Mind Pad is much easier than just writing a plan. So can I transform a map into a plan?
Thank you |

I think the right thing to do here would be creating a report. With Mind Pad 2.0 you can generate a report that will contain all topics from your map. Two types of report are available – plain text and htm. Also you can tell Mind Pad how you like your report to be generated:
Mind Pad can generate a report where root frame is selected by user;
Root frame may be determined by frame style (for instance using Main style as a map root);
Finally it may check max strength (the number of links related to frame) for all frames and consider to be the root the frame with max strength.
Your report will look like a list with the hierarchy of your thought preserved. |
