NovaMind 5 for Mac / Re: Presenter - Estimated Arrival... and other questions

You're welcome. I see that I sounded a bit defensive. Sorry about that. It's of course only natural for people to ask when something will be available  ;)

NovaMind 5 for Mac / Re: Presenter - Estimated Arrival... and other questions
« on: April 29, 2012, 09:56:39 am »
Let me try to answer some of your questions.
Firstly, NovaMind for Mac does have the PowerPoint export feature (in Pro & Platinum edition) just the same way as NovaMind for Windows. The PowerPoint export creates a PowerPoint presentation based on the textual content of the Mind Map. It does not export images of your Mind Map.

What the Mac version currently doesn't have is the features of the Presenter. The presenter also includes the ability to export selective elements from your Mind Map to images which you can then manually import into PowerPoint. See this blog post and this one for an overview.

It is perfectly fine to create a Mind Map using the Mac version, then opening it with the Windows version, define the slides you want to export and use the image export feature of the presenter to create the images.

It is correct that your license is cross platform so if you have Windows available you can use NovaMind for Windows too.

In the Mac version you cannot do this since the Presenter isn't available yet. We have said a number of times before that we cannot give an ETA on the presenter. The Mac team is working hard on this. Just this week they have made some important progress by releasing a beta version of NovaMind for Mac with a completely reworked drawing system. These are fundamental changes to make the Presenter feature possible. Again, I (nor anyone else) cannot give you an ETA when the actual Presenter will be available.

Hope this helps.

NovaMind 5 for Windows / Re: exporting multiple maps in NM5
« on: April 24, 2012, 09:05:03 am »
The export only works on the currently selected Mind Map. You could either generate separate PDF files and then use a third party tool to combine them or you could use a PDF printer and print all Mind Maps to PDF. I have used www.cutepdf.com in the past and it worked quite well. Please note that this is a third party application. Use at your own risk.

NovaMind 5 for Mac / Re: Trying to insert arrows inbetween verticle rectangles - floating topics
« on: April 23, 2012, 09:21:05 am »
In NovaMind 5 you can either just connect floating topics with link lines directly or you can also connect attached shapes with link lines.

To make the lines between floating topics straight you can select it and then delete the control point from the link line.

NovaMind 5 for Windows / Re: Changing Format and Inheritance

It seems this would be the perfect job for our new Theme editor: http://www.novamind.com/blog/2011/announcements-novamind-5-for-windows/theme-editor/

With the theme editor you can easily change the default look of topics on a specific level or of things like the link lines. To make your own theme inspired by the Draft theme just click on the little arrow next to the draft theme and click on Edit :)

NovaMind 5 for Mac / Re: Hello Presenter, I miss you!

I use dropbox extensively and NovaMind files are cross-platform compatible.  There definitely shouldn't be any problems with this.  :)

Hi Nigel,

You can already do this. NovaMind has a search feature. Simply press Ctrl+F or click on the Search button on the Home tab.

NovaMind 5 for Windows / Re: Print notes with Mindmap

You can print the notes using the outline option in the print window. You could also export your Mind Map to Word to print the notes.

NovaMind 5 for Windows / Re: Spell Checking for Windows
« on: February 20, 2012, 11:29:34 am »
Unfortunately this is impossible with the Microsoft spell checker that we use. The Microsoft spell checker doesn't even give us the ability to get a list of misspelled words. :( We would need to completely exchange it and use a third-party spell checker. We will consider this for future updates.

Just an idea: if you want to quickly make sure that you don't have any spelling mistakes export the Mind Map to Word and then check if there are any issues there. At least this will allow you to see quickly if there are any mistakes. Editing/fixing of the spelling mistakes still needs to be done in NovaMind.

NovaMind 5 for Windows / Re: Sub Topic Location = finer control
« on: February 02, 2012, 01:23:21 pm »
You can move topics freely but there is no layout mode where connection lines would go up,down/left and right all at the same time and on the same topic.

No, there is no sound recording built in but you can attach as many files as you like to a topic in NovaMind.
