Catherine, check out the 7/30 post (today’s post). I talk about how you can map markers to topics to control what is hidden before a presentation. Apply the markers, then create a power filter to either show or hide branches. This lets you quickly customize one map for a variety of different presentation purposes.

Dave, great question. I’m planning to cover this topic next.

I’d like to make text markers similar some shown in this post, specificly (Risk: Low) and (Reward: $$) and also be able group them.

For example, I want to make maps that represent learning objects. And for that I’d need metadata that would allow me to add a group Knowledge Object and items like (Title: xyz), (Description: bladie blah), etc.

Could you explain how I would do this, or how you created the text markers with fixed titles and variable content; e.g., (Risk: High).

Thanks

I’m glad you’re going to be going into this deeper. Your remarks about doing a master presentation and then having variations sounds like something I need. If you can provide a template too or tell us where to find out that would great as well.

I also want to know more about uploading a MindManager map to a web site or blog so it’s interactive. I tried following the directions and did it step-by-step but it never did work like explained on the web site or blog. I spent hours on it and finally gave up. Haven’t tried it since v.6.
