Mouse and touch operations



One of the great features of MindMaze is that it has a large set of keyboard shortcuts. Almost every function can be accessed
via keyboard shortcuts. Despite this, all operations can be done via mouse pointer or touch interfaces. This might be the only option available in full touch devices.

Common operations with mouse/touch pointer is listed below:

Click and Drag the Center Node (the node with which you started the mindmap): Move Map around the Screen

Click and Drag the Background: Move Map around the screen (Make sure you are not touching any node)

Scroll with your Mouse Wheel/Trackpad or Touchpad: Move Map around the screen

Click or Touch a node: Make that node the current selection

Shift + Click or Touch a node: Adds that node to the selection. This way, you can multi-select more than one node.

Double-Click a node: Edit that node so that you can change the text/content

Drag and Drop a node among its siblings: Reorder Siblings. Make sure you are dropping it into the empty space and not on another sibling. If the dragged node is on top of any of its sibling, its color changes to red.

Drag a node and drop it on another node: Change the parent of the dragged node as the dropped node. If the dragged node is on top of any of its sibling, it's color to changes to red.

Drag a Top Level 1 node from left to right side of the root (center node) or (right to left): Change the position of the node

alt+click, ctrl+click or cmd+click: forms a new link between the currently selected node and clicked node (if there is a current relation, it won't work)
