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 Moreover it contains a feature from Eclipse:
Clones
* Create clone creates a clone of the currently selected node as the direct sibling. * Both source and destination nodes get a (CLONE) symbol (you can disable this in the file freemind.properties, do you need this?) * Move this sibling to its place. * Every change to the source or the destination node will be synchronized on the other one. * This should work after saving and loading later on, too. * Several actions are not possible for clones: - You can't move one of the clones inside the other - Imagine some more as an exercise * 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 net in your network. * To do this, you need to specify a port and a password. * Others that reach your 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. * The change of participants may need 10 seconds to become visible. * Each second, each participant tries to get the changes done by others (polling).
Other features
* Jump to the last edit locations (control-q): - If you press Control-Q, you'll get to the node ultimately changed. - Pressing Control-Q again moves to the last but second and so on. - Ten places are stored.
