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.

Ability to make bowed connect lines that do not go through other nodes
I very much like the connecting node lines. However, as of now it is not possible to draw them in a way that they do not go through other nodes.
Let's say you have one node on the right side of the root node and one on the left. Creating a connection line will make it go straight through the root node.
I would like to have an additional option (next to dotted, solid, and colour)
bowedthat will make this line curved, trying to avoid other nodes and instead going around them.I hope my request is clear.
Thanks…
126 votesthis is now done in mindmup 2.0, you can select a theme (view→themes) and the simple theme has bowed connectors that do not cross each other or nodes

connecting nodes to each other
WHY: sometimes I want to show a connection between other nodes than the parent/sibling/child nodes

ChromeOS MindMup App
I would like to be able to use MindMup offline on my Chromebook. I can currently install MindMup as an extension which is nice, however I have to connect to the internet to load MindMup (while it downloads the JS files I imagine) then I can continue to use it without the internet and save to local browser storage. So option to load offline would be great and perhaps save to local storage.
105 votesWe have a new chrome app for offline work – most of the features are already there and we’ll add the rest during the next few weeks: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mindmup-desktop-free-mind/eealagocaipaflcjmeapmobpmilffopi

Link between two mindmups

Remember preferable type of storage
As a rule, I keep all my mindmaps on Google Drive. But every time, I start new mindmap, I must set Drive as a place storage.
To avoid it, it is possible to remember a storage choice, from the previous mindmap.
73 voteswith mindmup 2.0 we’re building one app for each storage type, so the initial one always saves to drive. see http://blog.mindmup.com/2015/10/mindmup-20-is-now-ready.html for more info.

themed color palette in mindmup 2.0
More useful (themed) color palette in mindmup 2.0.
Current colors of the color palette are not organised. If they'd be organised like MS Office themes (e.g. dark color on top, then one color tone lighter, etc) it would be easier to color children based on the color of its parent.
Please see this http://postimg.org/image/y6soslezv/Total happiness would be if one could select different color palettes. For example when there are a lot of children.

Controlling the width of each node
Some nodes have more text inside them and would look better if the width could be adjusted as needed. Maybe something similar to the way images can be resized in microsoft word. Click and drag to the desire size.
