nnako posted a comment on discussion Open Discussion
Ah, ok. Thanks. Saw it. So we will add feature requests within the GitHub issues.

Hi, short question about the use of GitHub for discussions and issues. What about "feature requests"? Are they to be considered "issues" and put into GitHub in the future, or will they still be put into the SourceForge feature tracker? My suggestion would be to put feature requests into GitHub's issues as well and maybe tag / mark them in a special way to distinguish them from real bugs. What do you think?

don't remove comments in addressbook file

Hi @gibboris , thanks for your quick reply. I would think, that the effect of having to use the abook application with the --datafile argument, each time the application is called (from within mutt and from the command line) makes it necessary to always remember that location each time. But when the --datafile flag could be set within abook's configuration file (default is ~/.abook/abookrc) I could set it once there and forget about it in the future. As far as I have seen, there is no way to set...

Interesting indeed. There could be one other point when trying to decide which user interface would be preferrable when choosing the behavior of "edit node core text". As we have seen, there are these options which would make sense: <F2> - usually (and still valid for the "old-style" themes) has the same effect as <END> but might be modified (and seems to have been modified for the L&F styles) to selecting the textual content of a node. ready to be overridden completely. <END> - go into edit mode...

Hi, just to complement the ideas... I was always wondering how to prevent my matrix-style tables from showing a kind of "slope" when moving to the right. As every node shows a bit of a vertical offset each time attached to its parent.

Hi, for me <F2> still works as edit node command within the current FP version 1.9.12 Maybe, somehow your hotkey setting got lost. Please try to re-set it by... activating TOOLS / ASSIGN HOT KEY from the top menu then choosing EDIT / NODE CORE / EDIT NODE CORE IN-LINE in top menu then choosing <F2> within the hotkey dialog and see, what other function got overridden, beforehand, if you like.

Hi @macmarrum, you already gave me the answer ;-) One of the scripts used ui.showInputDialog to receive the value of step (to select every n-th node), another used config.getBooleanProperty("copyFormatToNewChild") to read the currently set option in preferences. you use ui.showInputDialog to take the immediate user arguments for tweaking the functionality within your script. Thanks again.

Hi @macmarrum, hi folks, in our 1st user conference, Mac demonstrated how he creates table-like representations of data within mindmaps. using different scripts, he implemented the different steps to perform this action. I was wondering, how he uses to transfer arguments from the Freeplane editor window (e.g. after starting the particular script) into the started script. As I didn't see any popup window to ask the user for a value, I could imagine he might use an other mechanism like a local parameter...

Hi Volker, concerning the "Freeplane Server" project, is there a central web page or forum thread where we can see and study the current status of the project? just to be informed about: what are the technical goals so far? e.g. does a (preliminary) list of requirements exist? how far did the former development attempts go? are there some partial implementations, yet? which techologies have been choosen for a possible implementation?... All this might be interesting for developers to decide whether...

Perfect. Thanks. I don't like IDEs so much, as every language tends to provide / recommend its own IDEs, which tends to cause having to learn each IDE before becoming able to actually develop code. I'd like to stick to VIM and (except for situations like these) it has proven a good choice, so far ;-)

Hi, I am trying to re-select a bunch of nodes after performing some Groovy operations. Incoming nodes are listed in the c.selecteds object when entering the script. But when I trying to re-select them after some operations which changed the original selection within the map, I am stuck. Here is what I tried. To save the original list of selected nodes, I did this: // // remember details about selected nodes // //def lstNodes = [] //def lstNodesPos = [] ArrayList<Node> lstNodes = new ArrayList<Node>()...

Hi guys ;-) , sounds like an interesting discussion, here. workflows to accomplish specific activities (e.g. management of scientific documents, requirements management, ...) tend to be tedious in the first place. especially when they are performed manually while coupling a handful of different applications (possibly including Freeplane). I'd like to know more about the workflow described here. especially in order to see the practical problems. maybe we could find some features which could be implemented...

Hi @peter, yes, it should be possible as Henk already said. You would not be able to enjoy the online capabilities of the Freeplane mindmap editor (moving nodes, searching, styling, ...), though. in a way, you would start "blind" and try to use your own commands / functions to find and access information within the mindmap files. DIRECT XML ACCESS There are a lot of programming languages out there able to directly access the XML formatted text file which Freeplane uses to store its elements together...

Hi, I just wanted to check the operation of the great AddOn "MapInsight" on the current Freeplane v1.9.4 . My situation was the following: one running Freeplane instance v1.3.15, approx. 20 maps opened one running Freeplane instance v1.8.11, approx. 5 maps opened one running Freeplane instance v1.9.4, only one map opened now, on the FP v1.9.4 instance I installed the latest MapInsight AddOn and was asked to restart the Freeplane instance. this I did. on re-start of the FP v1.9.4 instance (while the...

last question ;-) : if there is no ConnectorModel present within the class path, anymore, like org.freeplane.features.link.ConnectorModel shouldn't there be a "simple" error message, latest, when calling its object functions? Why the crash of Freeplane?

Thanks a lot, Dimitry. It works as you suggested. I now used the following code to render the script valid the former Freeplane versions as well: import org.freeplane.features.link.ConnectorModel import org.freeplane.core.util.FreeplaneVersion and then within the right place further below ... node.children[i].connectorsOut.each { if( c.freeplaneVersion >= FreeplaneVersion.getVersion("1.9.0") ) { it.dashArray=[3,3] } else { ConnectorModel connectorModel = it.connector connectorModel.dash=[3,3] } ...

But basically I'm with abc163: eventually I change the combination... Hi folks. Thanks. It was my own fault to see that I changed the shortcut for closing / toggling the notes editor many years ago. I didn't use notes at all for a long time, as I always use details . So I forgot the sthorcut. <CTRL> + <LT> was still working to open the editor window in docked state. But for closing it was different than the standard setting. Thanks to @abc163 for the menu entry hint "[view] / [notes] / Display Notes...

Hi abc163, unfortunately, there are no buttons on the notes editor "window" docked to the Freeplane editor. And the shortcut <ALT> + <F4> closes any application on Windows OS (the entire Freeplane application), if not set to do otherwise. <CTRL> + <SHIFT> + <LT> does not close the docked notes editor. As stated further above, using <CTRL> + <LT> opens the notes editor as a docked window at the bottom of the Freeplane editor window. Is this a local problem to me or does somebody have the same issue...

Hi Keith, when I understand you right, you are looking for a feature to clear the rich-text or html format from multiple node cores at the same time. That is, to make the cores "plain text" again? You could select all the nodes you want to purify (convert to "plain text") and choose from the top menu [ format ] / [ node core ] / use plain text or use the keyboard shortcut assigned to it, which is in my case <SHIFT> + <ALT> + <P>. Does this help?

Hi Tom, there are two possibilities to keep the multiline-content within just one node when pasting it into your map: (1) paste it as you did (which results in multiple sibling nodes). But then select those new nodes by either pressing <SHIFT> + <LMouse> or by using <SHIFT> with the up/down arrow keys. And then press <CTRL> + <J> (at least this is the default for "join nodes" on Windows machines) to join the created nodes into one single node. (2) before pasting the copied content from the clipboard...

Hi, I'm trying to create a new node and link to it (the target) from a source node.

Hi @lilive, thank you for the hint. It helped solve my problem. Yes, Freeplane stores the date and time as UTC value (absolute world-time) in the UNIX timestamp format, which is used in many other systems as well. The node's CREATED and MODIFIED XML attributes hold the number of milliseconds calculated from the 1st of January 1970. In Python, the datetime module supports functions to directly deal with it and transform it to any other date and time representation format. It also translates it into...
-
Hi, a couple of days ago, I posted a question about the XML date/time format used for Freeplane. Does anybody know an answer or at least a hint where to start looking for an answer? XML date/time values... Do these values follow a standard format which can be decoded by e.g. Python's datetime module directly? Or is there a format description where I can "manually" decode these values into?

Hi, since some recent version updates, there is a new option at the top position of the "Appearance" tab within the settings window, specifying the monitor's screen size.

Hi @Alexandre, which version of ToDoList can export directly to GanttProject file format ".gan"? I could not find this option while checking v7.1.1.6 of the ToDoList application. As far as I see it, ToDoList as well as GanttProject uses XML as their file format. But as they don't have the same semantic definition, they don't seem to understand each other. ... TodoList can also export to gantt project (to have better printing of the gantt chart).

Hi @sfpcom, my opinion would be to let Freeplane do what it is good at and use other open source software which is good at e.g. Gantt graphs, like GanttProject you mentioned. Synchronizing between Freeplane and GanttProject thus could be easily done on the file level (XML). With the drawback that there might be no direct "online" synchronization possible but rather a manual sequence of save / process / refresh on each application's side. Best would be to define a kind of Freeplane-Tree-Structure...

I'd like to try to work on a solution myself. Possibly, check where the "PASTE" activity is triggered and from there create a list of all NodeIds below the copied tree, then check in each node's members (link, core,...) if referenced NodeId matches a list element change respective NodeId within node's member to match new target NodeId ... If you could help me find a fitting entry point within the code, I could try it.

by the way, I still think, this is a BUG, not a FEATURE REQUEST, as it relates to user data consistency... something you wouldn't expect but which could hit all power users from time to time ;-)

@Robertonisola, I wouldn't know. As far as I've used the history, I always saw a map-jumping node history. Maybe another user knows better?
-
@C Chiu, by pressing <ALT> + <LEFT> and <ALT> + <RIGHT> (default on windows systems) you can jump to the previous and next node within the node selection history. It works even for all your opened maps, so that you can e.g. jump back from an activated map link. In effect, after accidentally pressing ESC you don't have to press <LEFT> or <RIGHT> multiple times. Just <ALT> + <LEFT> once.

Hi Ken, for any version of Freeplane, you can choose a specific installation folder. At times, I use 10 different Freeplane versions at the same time on the same computer. In order to be free regarding the installation folder, you should use the PORTABLE version. It prompts you to choose your specific installation folder at startup. For the current stable version this would be: https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeplane/files/freeplane%20stable/FreeplanePortable-1.7.3.paf.exe/download

Hi @Robertonisola, the find&replace functionality you mentioned seems to belong directly to the NoteEditor-App. As far as I know, there is no way to activate it outside the NoteEditor (please correct me, folks).

In order to activate this functionality, press CTRL + SHIFT + F open search&replace...

Hi Werfusus, for a programmatical approach, you could look at the script "toggle block view" which you find in the site's scripts collection. The script does one of the following things (in turn): RESET all of the selected node's width settings (in case at least one was previously set) find maximum node width among selected nodes and set all widths to this value

Hi Henk, thanks for your explanations and your time spent in thinking this through with me. My point was that, as I use Freeplane's lib folder to store my own general scripts (and classes) which are called by other scripts (which I store in the scripts folder). And, in general I didn't expect other "participants" there. I will find a way to separate my own stuff from the stuff others put into the lib folder. Or I will simply exclude type ".class" files from the synchronization process. Thanks.

Hi nnadalinn, Freeplane automatically determines the "best" place for all your nodes. The only two options to gain a bit of freedom are: change a single node's / branch's position by draging its anchor point (directly left of any right-bound node) which alters the relative distance to sibling nodes in a limited way. create a "floating node" on your map (by using <CTRL> + <DOUBLE-LMOUSE> on Windows) which you can freely move around. Virtually, the new node is attached to the root node. But be careful...

Hi Berni, sorry for coming too late with my answer... To restore or modify your menu bars, you could easily open the map's context menu and tick the respective menu element within the list. On Windows computers, you call the map's context menu by moving the mouse on an empty spot within your map and <RIGHTCLICK> .

Hi, for quite some years, I always wanted to be able to use a vim-like interface when browsing my Freeplane maps. Using the mouse gets uncomfortable especially when working with big maps and a frequent need to use different menu functionalities (search, style, inline-edit,...). Using a vim-like user interface has the potential to completely eliminate the mouse by providing "interpretations" of the keyboard inputs with respect to the current INPUT MODE and thus gaining speed and focus. This might...

Hi, I accidentally deleted two files from an audio recorder (Olympus LS-10) connected via USB on my Windows XP system by using <SHIFT> + <DEL>. This was done within the WindowsExplorer application. Since then, There were no write activities on the USB device, so I think, chances are for recovery... Unfortunately, I have not found any process description on HOW to try to recover a file. There are loads of features but no recipe on WHAT TO DO when a certain problem is to be solved. As data is very...

Hi Bal, When I just installed 1.6.5, there was no opportunity in the dialogs to choose a destination folder... which installation container do you use? I mostly install the latest "portable version" from the download folder of stable versions. For FP v1.6.5 it would be this file name: FreeplanePortable-1.6.5.paf.exe Have you tried? Are there any restrictions on your side why not to use the portable version?

this seems most usefull for multimap-props (ie, props shared independently of any map) Now, the library is capable of saving / retrieving Freeplane-global "global" variables using the appropriate library function argument for the scope as described within the library script and the example below it: https://www.freeplane.org/wiki/index.php/Scripts_collection#LIBRARY_for_creation_and_usage_of_global_variables Please read the caution message carefully, as this library creates (and thus possibly overrides)...

... the OS will cache the files in memory when they are used many times, so that should not be a concern. sounds great. And there is already an option to choose the scope of the "global" variables. By default, they will currently be stored / retrieved globally for each map wherein the respective library function is called. Using scope="global" will store / retrieve the variables Freeplane-global. But for this I will have to find out the local installation folder of the current freeplane version....

Hi there, ... file based global variables... I will try that one out and post my results here... I've put the first working version of a "global variable management" library here: https://www.freeplane.org/wiki/index.php/Scripts_collection#LIBRARY_for_creation_and_usage_of_global_variables What do you think?

Hi Braves, good to see your interest ;-) I now want to document the program with freeplane, showing all major methods and interfaces at a high level...any ideas of the best way to model it? I don't know if it is the best way to do it, but for me it is a very helpful way to do it. It helped me with a lot of projects during the recent years: You see: on the left is the clickable file name (a Groovy script) then follow regions of application (UserInterface, and CODE) the green text nodes resemble blockwise...

Hi Zipi, I think you could put your data in an object (like a Map) and then save that object to a file. And later load the file and get the object and your data back. thanks for the idea to do it using structured files. I will try that one out and post my results here, still hoping there would be a more "intrinsic" solution for memory sharing without using external means.

Hi Alexandre, I wanted to do something like that too, actually I would like to put some functions in a common file, and do some sort of library and include it to scripts. this was already described here: https://www.freeplane.org/wiki/index.php/Your_own_utility_script_library I think, Volker did it. But my question goes a bit further. I not only want to share functions (actions) but memory as well.

Hi, I frequently use a couple of self-written Groovy scripts which are not interconnected, yet. Now, I would like to change a global variable using one script and read / change this global variable from within another script. In this wiki article there is a description of how to share functions and constants between scripts, but I haven't figured out how / where to define global variables in order to be shared between scripts. I would guess using some kind of def static <type> <varname> [ = <initval>...
