Use of the graph reading tool in mindmanager

Mindmanager has many commands that can be used to read graphs. Some of them are dedicated graph reading commands. Some of them are not used to read graphs. However, they can help us better read or understand the graph export process. With more and more ways to read images, we will have a deeper understanding of Mind Map.

Basic Graph reading Tool

The graphic reading tools in mindmanager may dazzle us. For those who are not familiar with these graphic reading tools, you may even feel helpless-you don't know how to use it or when to use it. Here we will first introduce three commonly used image reading tools.

1. node opening and closing

Click on the graph export node to open or hide the graph branches below the node. This is the most basic tool for reading the Mind Map. Take the example chart that comes with mindmanager as an example. Place the cursor over the "-" symbol next to "tips and instances", and click it. The "-" symbol becomes the "Notice" symbol. During symbol switching, the subordinate branches of a node are in the open and closed statuses.

The status bar described in section 2.3.4 contains a "detail" command button, which can be used to expand or collapse the branch level. However, this command button is for the full graph. It is more appropriate to use the method of clicking a node when you open or close a node in a branch.

2. Branch Number

In section 2.1, we talked about the reading sequence of the Main Branches and branches of the Mind Map. In fact, it doesn't matter if you cannot remember this, because sometimes the setting of the chart is confusing. For example, for the example image "Sample-demo-making" that comes with mindmanager, beginners may not understand how to sort the main branches when opening it. But it doesn't matter. On the "format" Page, select the "numbering" command to add a number to the branch. Click the command to see that all branches are automatically numbered, as shown in Figure 2-25. Next, read the graph by number.

However, in this example, the sequence of the source image is wrong. The result is that the number we add is the opposite to that of the original serial number, but this is not a serial number error.

The band function interface has two features. The following describes the "numbering" command.

First, the ribbon function interface has many sub-Command Options. If you directly use the branch number command instead of the sub-command, the branch number will be assigned when you click it for the first time, the numbering method is the first sub-command numbering method, that is, "1, 2, 3 ......" Method ID. If you click again, the branch number is canceled. After learning about this, let's look at its sub-commands. We can also use its sub-commands to numbers and cancel numbers. The changes are more complicated.

 

 

In addition, if you select a parent branch and then use the branch number command, the branch number command takes effect only for the sub branch under the branch. If you use this command without selecting any branch, it takes effect for the first-level branch by default.

3. subscribe to the Branch Set

In mindmanager, select the "boundary shape" (range box) command on the "format" tab page to decorate the Mind Map. Of course there is nothing to do with this, but more importantly, this command is used to display the export graph, which we often ignore. When the layers and content of a map are complex, we can use it effectively.

Take the example "Sample-meeting" that comes with mindmanager as an example, as shown in Figure 2-26. Here, we draw a line for the two-level branch set in the graph, so that when we read the graph, we will focus on this range, and temporarily ignore other branches.

Potential rules for reading Images

In order to better read the mind map, it is necessary to consciously follow some reading rules when learning the Mind Map. The following table lists the potential rules for reading images.

 

 

 

The points of interest of each branch are not necessarily the same.

Even if you do your own mind map, you may not completely repeat the original thinking when you read it again. This is especially true for reading other people's mind map. One thing we can realize is that thinking is a kind of labor, and mind map is a kind of labor achievement. We need to respect the work of others or ourselves in the early stages, while respecting, the process of making a choice and then thinking is also labor. It is necessary to record the re-thinking process in the most convenient way.

L personalized branches help to recognize

The judgment, choice, recognition, or opposition in thinking is the strengthening and reproduction of thinking. The enhancement and reproduction of this kind of thinking can bring our thinking closer to perfection, and the perfection is worth cherishing. The best "treasure" for map export is memory, while MAP export is a relative system consisting of structured branches. Therefore, we classify and personalize the branches after thinking, it is also one of the tasks we can do.

L do not change the structure and content, but the contact can be changed.

In the process of reading the Mind Map, we can process the source image, but we should try our best not to change the structure and content of the source image, and wait for ourselves to have a complete mind and work for it.
