What should we focus on next?
MindMup is community driven, so we’ll work on what our users want the most. For best results, please:
- Formulate ideas as work objectives (explain why, not just what/how). For example, ‘collaborate with friends remotely’ is much better than asking for ‘google realtime v2.0 integration’
- Do not submit stuff anonymously. We want to discuss your proposal with you if it gets votes, and anonymous submissions don’t allow us to do that. Ideas submitted anonymously will most likely be closed.

- underlined text
- bullet list
- numbered list
- plain text7 votesThe first version of this is now live on our main site… Here is the info http://blog.mindmup.com/p/working-with-attachments.html

had a legend to explain node color
eg:
- green for done, yellow for in progress, red for lock
- blue V1, orange V2, etc.
3 votesAngela – and others – this is actually done as part of the progress extension. If you define your own statuses using color, you can use the progress toolbar as a floating legend. see blog.mindmup.com/p/monitoring-progress.html

auto-saving every 60s
mind-map auto saves after 60s and this is very disrupting as it will not allow me to carrying on typing. I have to wait for it to finish auto-saving. The previous version where it auto-saves like google docs is much better as it would not disrupt me. How do i off auto-save????
3 voteswe have improved auto-save to be significantly less disruptive. check here for more information

Add hyperlinks to nodes/ add hyperlinks to texts ie text "Home" links to a webpage
This would allow developers to use the application and visually see the site structure.
If I had a series of pages, ie
Home page:
http://www.genetex.com/
pages on home menu:
http://www.genetex.com/Web/News/NewsList.aspx
http://www.genetex.com/Contact%20Us
about,
products
etc,..this feature would make mindmup perfect for mapping out a website layout. This would add another bit of unique value in that I feel developers need this, especially as a tool to communicate with their clients.

Ensure Google Docs Collaboration Works after Realtime API is Deprecated November 2018
Mindmup's Google drive and realtime API based collaboration are two fundamental "killer" features, without them the product loses out very substantially to competitors.
Google will pull the realtime API November 2018, after this time those documents and features will likely stop working.
https://developers.google.com/google-apps/realtime/deprecation
It's essential (imho) to the future of Mindmup that effort should be put in now to ensure this does not affect user's existing work (it still loads after this time without any changes/conversion) and that those same app features are available after the API is withdrawn.
29 votesIt’s now possible to convert maps that used realtime api to plain google files, and edit them. we also added some features to warn users about remote changes, and merging in remote changes.

Export Notes as well as Nodes to DOCX. Users can create/edit entire documents in MindMup in a visual way.
Export Notes as part of the DOCX export - that way users can create and edit complete documents or presentations in MindMup. It is much easier to organize and edit a large document in the form of a mind map. The mind map can be used as a summary (or presentation) while the exported DOCX can be used as an 'official' document (often required in academic and business situations).
3 votesthis is already supported, the feature is under exporting the outline as docx, just select to include the notes.

Have other people collaborate on the same mindmup at the same time together
When you and another person are collaborating on a mindmup together you can work simitaneously at the same time together, without having the system mess up or not work.
3 votesthis is now available to all gold users when using MindMup Cloud storage. financially, it’s not sustainable for us to offer this service to free users.
collaboration is available to free users when saving maps to Google drive (https://www.mindmup.com/tutorials/google-drive.html) but Google will remove this capability in December 2018. Check out https://www.mindmup.com/resources/google_realtime_deprecation.html for more details

attach documents from google Team drive
When I create a map within a teamDrive, I would like to be able to add documents which are also stored in this same TeamDrive.
This feature is important as we are deploying teamDrives and we try to limit the usage of personal google Drives

I'd like to be able to created unlinked objects, and connect them later.

Hi,
sorry for the late response, this was buried in the list due to just 3 votes. Collaboration features for Gold users have been supported for a while now, see https://www.mindmup.com/tutorials/mindmup-cloud.html#sharing for more information.

File list vs image previews
For me is very uncomfortable the new interface with map image previews.
Could you go back to the old list mode or add it as an option?
It would be far less chaotic for those who has several small maps: the
list with titles is easy to read in one shot.1 votewe’ve updated the page to allow you to switch back to the list.

Change font size of a node
I want to be able to make some nodes bigger, kind of like headings, so they stand out. Someone else had requested this and it was marked as "completed", but I can't find any way to change the font size of a node.

Make nodes resizable
I would like to be able to scale a node, either directly, or by assigning a style to it (as in MS Word's Heading 1, Heading 2, ... type 'styles').
I would like this so that some nodes are larger & have bigger text than others to highlight their importance.
Yes you could do that with colour, but the significance would need to be looked up in a key as colour is not as intrinsic an indicator of importance in a diagram as size is.
9 votesyou can now change the text size in individual nodes easily. here’s how: https://youtu.be/AtIYtsAvSeE
You can also resize the node by dragging the right edge
