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.

Recognisable form in word documents (such as google docs) (Importing docs/word format recognised)
Current situation:
I write up what I want to mind map into a word document (Google docs or word), and then write up this in a mind map
Amendment:
A structure or table that mind map can recognise, be copied in and will automatically generate a mind map
Advantages:
Ideas can be written down the first time into an acceptable format, and mind map is just re expressing in a more visual way. It would save so much time, and be really awesome
Why can I not just write straight into mind map:
Safe copy in word first, more flexible…3 votes -
Basic drawing and annotation features
It would be really useful to be able to draw custom elements, shapes etc onto the background, or type annotations around nodes and lines.
An example would be, so that I can use lines to divide the map into sections, each section of which can home nodes that belong to a specific category or group.
Or to be able to create little doodles around nodes to make them more visually interesting/accessible.

Have nodes branch off in any direction including above or below parent
Currently, I can only place a child node to the left or right of its parent.
I then have to commit to branching off in that direction.
For my purposes, it would be useful to branch off in different directions including directly above or below the parent node.3 votes -
Manually bend connecting lines
Sometimes if the map is a particularly busy one with lots of connections, some of the connecting lines aren't easy to spot at a glance, as they go behind other nodes.
Sometimes this can make it look like there are connections between things that there are not.
The ability to manually bend connecting lines would mean being able to detour around nodes that are in it's path, to make the connections clearer.1 vote -
Abliity to resize Status icons + %
They are really too big, and gives % progression for "in progress"

Enhanced "Connect to another node"
Either allow "Connect to another node" to have bi-directional arrows showing mutually dependent premises, or offer a non-arrowed node connecting line.

In argument visualisation, offer orange as a third 'colour' edge for rebuttals.
An objection to an objection is a rebuttal. At the moment you simply have objections coloured red and objections to those objections also red.
In order to make the inferential structure easier to visualise you could offer rebuttals as an alternative orange-coloured edge. (This idea is borrowed from Rationale.)

Perhaps like RATIONALE (Reasoninglab) it could have basic boxes
Mindmpup could include some basic support boxes, like Rationale.
Like: common belief, case study, statistics, example, expert opinion, publication, quote, ....2 votes -

The ability to make hyperlinks open in the tab of the map instead of opening in a new tab
I'd like to have the option to open hyperlinks in the same tab as the map instead of opening a new one. I'm working on a website that uses mind maps to help people study, there are "module maps" that link to "lesson maps" that hold the course content. Whenever a link on the module maps is clicked a new tab opens. Once the user is finished with the site they can have nearly two dozen tabs of the site open, it makes for a pretty poor user experience. This is a problem with every mindmap platform I've used, I'm…

Node Type and Attributes
Great tool....
One thing that I would like to be able to do is to create my own node types and link them together. Currently we can only link one type of node, but if we could create our own node types then we could link various type of nodes together which would carry more structured information.
For example Course -> Class -> Times
And also, being able to add a list of key value pair attributes on each node. Which can allow for semi-structured data to be stored against each node.
for example, a Question node, could have attributes…

Show the keyboard shortcut when hovering over a toolbar icon
It's easier to remember the shortcuts when they're popping up every time you use features, rather than having to study a separate page of listed shortcuts.

Add basic map controls to Atlas/Archive Maps
When using the Atlas or a read-only version of a map from the archive or embed codes, can we access some basic map controls (zoom, search etc)

Optimised positioning
An option for the all the nodes to be automatically repositioned to 50% left of central node and 50% right. This would be great for maps where position does not matter as all second tier nodes share the same importance.

Insert parent node(s)
The behavior of the current insert parent node doesn't match my expectations. It adds layers to the hierarchy instead of adding another parent to the current node.
Having the ability for a map hierarchy to converge on a node from multiple parents is missing here (and in a lot of other mind mapping software). But I think it's a pretty fundamental structure. Family trees and git source control graphs come to mind.

To change the colour of text in Notes (to be better visible)
Text in the Note panel is light blue and shadow. It is very uncomfortable for eyes because of worse visibility. I suggest to change the colour of text in Notes panel (or to offer the possibility of colour´s election at least) to be better visible.
Mind mup is my lovely work tool - thank you very much!

Adjust divider between map and sidebar
The user should to be able to adjust the divider between the map and sidebar.
This should be a persistent setting if the user leaves the app and returns, hides and shows the sidebar, etc.
Double clicking the divider could restore it to the default 50/50 state.
I apologize if this feature request already exists, I couldn't find it quickly.3 votes
