Connector lines to centre of shape, not a side
I don't like having to choose a side connection point because it can look a bit ugly having lines not aligned to the centre of the shape and means I have to make a pointless decision about which side to attach the connector to, and it messes up if I move it so the connector is now having to cross the shape to get to the…
-
Some strange things about images
Firstly, I love the images upload and paste feature. It just works, easy to use, great set of options and controls for resizing, aligning with captions etc. There are just a few things relating to nodes and images that I want to mention. If you have a node selected and paste and image, it pastes into the node. That's ok,…
-
Font size relative to position in hierarchy
I would love to be able to set the font size of each level in the hierarchy to be a percentage of the parent. This could be editable in the theme customiser when it comes out. Here I've set the parent font size to 40px and each consecutive child to be 20% of the parent's font size so: Top level: 40px Second level: 32px…

Bigger text. Much bigger.
On big maps when you zoom out you can't read anything. I've edited the CSS here to bump up the text size to 50px.

Stronger Ties to Meister Note
This request is a bit larger, but I think in the long run it would be a very powerful tool. Mind Meister currently supports copying the url of a Meister Note and adding it as an attachment, but as far as I can tell, doesn't really directly support Meister Note. We need an option to click 'Connect to Note' in relation to…
-
Floating Topic Key Shortcut
Please set up a way to do a floating topic creation key. Since a new child topic is Insert, could you make it Shift-Insert? Thank you!
-
Many to many relationships
I know this is supported somewhat with the use of connectors but I'd like to see Mind Meister support it more integrally, if that makes sense. More like concept mapping. It's a big ask because I've used many tools and CMap - the academic sector Java application - is the only one that does this well. This is following on…
-
Allow file names that differ from the Central idea name
Currently, map file names are whatever appears as the central idea of the map. Sometimes, however you might want to have a different file names, such as where you have a few versions of the same map.
-
Paste Style onto connector lines
Currently can only paste styles onto topics.
-
Density setting like Gmail - with options like default, comfortable and compact
This would allow for good looking spacing on some maps (default) and the ability to tighten spacing / fit more info in a smaller space on crowded maps.
-
Feature Request: Let users add their own quote(s) to the Dashboard
I'm new to MeisterTask, and I'm really liking what I see a lot. So hats off on what seems to be a great product. There's just one tiny little thing that would mean A LOT for me and probably many others. I have my own favorite quotes that reflect my own personal values and principles. I'd love it if I could customize the…
-
Compact layout option between auto-layout and manual
Auto layout is cool but wastes a LOT of whitespace. Manual layout is handy for utilising that wasted space and is useful for creating meaningful distance between parents and siblings e.g. this node is related but distant - but gets messy quickly because suddenly every other node pretends the manually positioned node no…
-
Keep handles and menu icons same size regardless of zoom
When I zoom out I can barely see the handles on connectors, or the menu icons on nodes. The content should scale including lines, borders, arrows etc, but not the controls.

💡Feature Request: Gantt Chart template (Timeline) in MindMeister
Hi together, @Cornelia Patscheider gave me the idea with her post about Canva that it would be cool to have such a Gantt Chart template in MindMeister. Would love to have it in MindMeister! 😉
- 💡 Feature Request: Ability to view maps in a Google Sheets
-
Allow for maps created with the new editor to be shared with Biggerplate
The old MindMeister editor allowed a user to share one of their mind maps to the Biggerplate library. https://www.biggerplate.com/ Apparently, this feature is not available with the new editor although it was available in the old editor. I recommend that this feature be added. Many users might not think that this is a big…
-
Formulas and calculation
Hi! I need you to permit use of formulas in the mind map like this image under: For example, as I insert the values 2, 3 and 5 in the childs, the main line would, automatically, calculate, from a formula, the sum and show the result (as the image above). Would this feature be possible? (please say yes...) That would be…
-
Collaboration - locking leafs/nodes
When collaborating with new users, sometimes they move things around with knowing or how to undo the move. It would usefull to offer a node level lock feature where I can stop it from being moved to another parent...and have the option to lock all sibling notes and make them not movable...and only comment-able. Maybe this…
-
[IMPLEMENTED] Copy/Paste style when editing a mind map
I want to be able to quickly copy all style elements from one bubble to the next without having to go into the color settings, text formatting, and layout settings on the bubble in which style I want to copy. Example of use: In photoshop you can copy layer style and paste it to other layers.

Funktion "Alles zuklappen"
Ich benutze Mind Meister zum präsentieren von Ideen. Neben der bereits vorhandenen Funktion "Details einblenden / Alles aufklappen" würde ich mir eine Funktion "Details ausblenden / Alles zuklappen" wünschen, um den Ausgangszustand wiederherzustellen und meine Ideen Schritt für Schritt aufklappen und präsentieren zu können.

URL link to specific map topic - Link zu spezifischem Mapzweig
Hello MeisterTeam, currently you can reach a mindmap via a link. It would be very helpful if each individual part of a mind map had a link, so that when I am communicating about an issue, I could also send the specific link to the map directly to the respective employee. At the moment I think I can only send the link to…

💡Feature request: automatic line break for bold texts in regular and floating topics
I wanted to resize a floating topic on my mindmap. It sounds like a really simple thing to do, right? But I needed help from the community to do it. @Jörg Koper helped me find a solution to my problem, but it's not the ideal scenario. So here I am suggesting a feature to reduce the amount of work needed while creating…

Make an embedded map editable
I would like the embedded mind maps to be editable (add, delete, edit nodes). I have many use cases where this would be useful: An embedded map in Notion An embedded map in 360Learning A embedded map in Google Site
-
Upload Progress Indicator to Show When MindMeister is Loading
I propose some way of indicating to the user that MindMeister is still moving data to its server. If I move a large amount, then try to change to another map, I get a warning that some data may not have been transferred yet. So I just have to wait and keep checking until I can switch maps without that warning. This…

Make Floating Style Box available all the time - New Mindmeister Design
The new design of Mindmeinster is soberb! Modern, easy to use and with more vibrants colors. However, one thing that I am particularly missing is the Floating Style Box that used to be available at all times within the GUI. In the new Mindmeister design the Style Box is available ONLY when you click in a knot/bubble. That…
-
Geisteblitze Timestamp
When entering something through the Geisteblitze mobile feature (which is such an amazing feature in and of itself!), could a timestamp option be made available to display with the entry? Something that shows the date/time that the entry was submitted.
-
Saving custom font colors for future use.
I was looking for a way to save a custom font color instead of trying to recreate it everytime. From responses that I've received, it sounds like I need to wait for a future release., In the meantime, so I don't have to recreate them every time, I store my custom font colors in another bubble for easy reference: For easier…
-
💡Feature request: Find & Replace
Add Replace to the Search feature, following the same Search filters by All, Topic Titles, Comments, and Notes. It is currently very tedious to propagate repeated changes (e.g. spelling corrections, wordsmithing) across the entire map.
-
Editing size/shape of text box
Some of my child/sibling topics are quite large/detailed and they end up being soooo long and messes up the shape of the map, it would be great to be able to edit the shape of the box e.g. rectangle it/make it a square to better suite the shape of the whole mindmap. This would make the whole map more readable and easier…
-
Use MindMeister for content creation
Right now creating content is key especially short-form content like TikTok or Reels format... I was wondering if we can use vertical mindmaps or something to share and create content and actually show the mindmap behind us or while we're explaining something.
