NovaMind adds presentation templates |
||
|
NovaMind is pleased to announce the immediate availability of new presentation templates as part of the latest release of NovaMind 4 Pro and Platinum. NovaMind is frequently used for presentations and to make it easier for you to create compelling presentations, two templates have been added. The first is based on the excellent book “Beyond Bullet Points” by Cliff Atkinson ![]() Beyond Bullet Points Mind Map Template The template prompts you for the main points of your presentation so that you have a well structured presentation which takes into account the setting of the presentation, your role, the explanation of the current challenge and the desired outcome, and how to achieve that outcome. The details of how to structure your presentation in this way is explained in Cliff’s book. The second template is based on Paul J. Kelly’s excellent book “The 7-Slide Solution” ![]() The 7-Slide Solution Mind Map Template The template is set up so you can easily fill in the different portions of the presentations: Firstly engaging the audience, telling your “back story”, building the story and bringing it to the boil, then offering choices of solutions, providing resolution and setting up for a sequel. Full details are provided in Paul’s book. Both presentation templates are from well respected authors and provide a good starting point for any presentation.

NovaMind Mind Mapping Software for Windows gets PowerPoint export |
||
|
NovaMind for Windows received a significant update today with the ability to export Mind Maps directly from NovaMind to PowerPoint. This capability opens up new sharing opportunities where there is a need to brainstorm ideas using Mind Mapping techniques, and yet to share the information using more “traditional” presentation software. The files produced are the new PPTX files used by PowerPoint 2007 for Windows and PowerPoint 2008 for Mac. Here is a video of the export procedure and results:
Standard text styles are used wherever possible to make sure that when you apply a theme to your presentation in PowerPoint, the styles are applied consistently throughout the presentation. Images on the branches are transferred to the presentation, and the branch notes become speaker notes. This makes the transition from your NovaMind Mind Map to your PowerPoint presentation almost instantaneous. |
