Saving your first Mind Map

To save your Mind Map, select the File / Save option from the menu. Choose the location to save the file. NovaMind files are saved with the filename extension nmind.

In the General Preferences pane, you can set NovaMind to save your files automatically at set intervals

When you first run NovaMind, it is set up so that it saves a backup copy of the previous version of your files with a Filename~.nmind name. If you don't want this to happen, you can turn it off in the General Preferences pane.
