- Double-click anywhere on the canvas to create a node. Nodes can hold text of any sort.
- Click on nodes to select them. Selected nodes can be dragged around, linked to others, or deleted.
- Double-click on a selected node to enter it - inside each node is a space which can contain other nodes. Drop nodes into other nodes to create elaborate hierarchies. Your mind maps can be made endlessly deep in this way.
- The breadcrumb helps you to find your bearings. Failing that, the
upbutton gets you out of recursive tangles.
