Changes for v1.0.0 - v1.0.1 RC 1

• Fixed: Bug 1181 Folding symbol is invisible on black background
• Fixed persistence of "complete cloning" across cut/paste.
• Fixed save of notes, when containing tabs
• Clones can be deactivated by menu
• Fixed #1178 [Shared map] Nodes are lost when moving them through drag & drop

Changes for v1.0.0 RC 5 - v1.0.0

• WOW Features
• Clones: nodes and its sub-nodes can be cloned. The two copies will then be synchronized
• Collaboration: two or more people can work simultaneously on the same map
• Restore complete session
• Location based mindmapping
• Spell checking on input
• Clones
• Copy a node via Edit -> Copy
• Paste a clone of this node (and its children) via Edit -> Paste as Clone
• Both source and destination nodes get a (CLONE) symbol (you can disable this in the file freemind.properties).
• Every change to the source or the destination node will be synchronized on the other one.
• This works after saving and loading later on, too.
• It is possible to have clones inside of other clones.
• It is impossible to move a clone into another clone of the same node.
• To disable a clone, move to the source node and choose "Clone node" again (The UI must be tweaked, IMHO)
• Collaboration
• You can share a map in your network.
• To do this, you need to specify a port and a password. Then you are the master.
• Others that reach your master-host and the port can connect with the password.
• They will get exactly the same map as a local copy.
• Each change from any participants is distributed among all participants.
• To end the collaboration, just choose "Share map" again. Then, some seconds later, all clients see, that the collaboration has ended.
• The title of the window shows the hostname, port and the participants of the collaboration.
• Observe, that there is little security around. Only the password is present, but the communication is in plain.
• Restore session
• FreeMind loads each map opened in the last session,
• restores the zoom and
• the last selected nodes.
• This feature can be switched off in the preferences.
• Location Based Mind Mapping
• Now, you can associate nodes of a mindmap with geographical locations. Each node can have at most one location.
• Use cases:
• Store interesting places (eg. restaurants or business partner addresses)
• Organize a geographical search. Examples: house hunting
• holiday location
