Using Themes

Editing Mind Map Design Properties

Themes are an excellent way of applying a set of settings to an existing Mind Map. Depending on the settings for the particular theme, it may include items such as:

 

The background of the Mind Map, including background colors and images
The outline numbering settings for the Mind Map
The coloring mode for the Mind Map
The layout assistance mode and branch spacings
Branch styles for each level of the Mind Map starting from the Mind Map title, through the first level branches etc all the way down to as many child level branches as are set in the theme. These styles may include branch shapes, colors, line settings, fonts, etc.
Attached graphic styles for each level of the Mind Map starting from items attached to the title through attachments to all the branches.
The default branch style for new branches that are created.

 

When you create a new Mind Map using a template, you will also get the option to select a theme to apply to it. You can also apply a theme to your Mind Map at any time, but be aware it will apply the theme settings to your whole Mind Map.

 

To apply a theme, select the Map Design tab of the ribbon bar, and click on Themes, and select the theme you would like to apply. There is a live preview so you will see how the theme would look when applied.
