    Hello,
    I have screen the forum for similar discussions, but have not found a solution :
    is there a possibility to format text in a way, that if it is pasted into FP, a structure of child nodes is create ?

    for example :

    node;node2;node3
    node;node2;node4
    node;node5;node6

    would give something like :

    node --- node2 ---- node 3
    ............. \ .............. \ -----node 4
    ................ \node5 ----- node 6

    In the moment it seems that simply new lines \n are interpreted as a new node on the same level

    The above example is typical of somethigng that can easily be created in an xls file (or had been for another purpose),

    anybody else had had already this problem ?

    any ideas are welcome

    Cheers

    Oliver

    When text is pasted into a node, indentation is treated as levels.
    If this text has been copied to the clipboard:

    node 1
            node 2
                       node 3
                       node 4
            node 5
                       node 6
    

    When it's pasted into a map freeplane will insert
    node 1 with node 2 & node 5 as children of node 1,
    node 3 & node 4 as children of node 2,
    and node 6 as a child of node 5.

    Is that the results you're looking for?

    With large amounts of text, some child nodes may be missequenced, as I posted on 2017-09-03
