A mind map: ideas, structures and tasks on a single canvas. Nodes form a tree; you can move, collapse and color them, and HubNext tasks sit on the map as live cards.
Where to find it
Sidebar -> Tools -> Mind map. The section is enabled by the system administrator (the "Tools" module in the organization settings). The list shows all organization maps, their access mode and who is editing a map right now.
Create a map
Click New map, enter a Title and choose Access:
- Shared — any employee can edit.
- Restricted — only managers and above can edit, others view. The mode can be changed in Map settings (the gear) by the map author or an administrator.
Editing
A map opens in view mode. Click Edit to start making changes. Only one person edits a map at a time: while you edit, others see the map as view-only with a note on who is working in it. Click Finish when done, or the map frees itself after 15 minutes of inactivity. An administrator can Take over.
Changes are saved automatically; Saved appears next to the title.
| Action | How | |---|---| | Child node | Tab, the toolbar button or the + at the node (the central node has one on each side) | | Sibling node | Enter | | Edit text | F2 or double-click (Enter saves, Esc cancels) | | Delete node with branch | Del | | Move | drag the node (with its descendants) | | Re-parent | drag the node onto another node | | Collapse a branch | the circle at the node | | Undo / redo | Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Shift+Z | | Zoom | Ctrl + wheel or the buttons; Ctrl+0 fits everything |
The Align tree button lays nodes out neatly; a node color is chosen from the palette.
Tasks on the map
Add task searches for a task by code or title and puts it on the map as a child block; the checkbox button at a node does the same (the central node has one on each side). The block shows status, assignee and deadline (overdue in red); clicking the code opens the task. If you have no access to the task's project, the block is shown gray as Task unavailable. Removing a block from the map does not delete the task itself.
In the task picker you can narrow the list: choose a project (All projects), then a subproject, or a tag (All tags). While any filter is set, all open tasks are shown as compact rows: status and priority icons, code and title. The search box works together with the filters.
