Multiple Mind Maps Nodes
complete
Ben Pettit
We desperately need the option to add multiple nodes to one mind map. We currently use "Mind Node" software and we wouldn't be able to bring those docs to ClickUp until we get it native here.

How can I switch the vertical view to a horizontal view in a mind map?

ClickUp Admin, Just a quick question... why are you messing around with Mind Map Nodes when a basic piece of notifications functionality that has twice as many voters and has been marked as 'planned' since 2019 not has even moved over into 'in progress' in 2022?
Kim Griffin
Love that you have added this!

Hey everyone!
I'm part of the team that's working on Mind Maps and Whiteboards and I wanted to share something we JUST released this week!
We've brought Mind Map functionality over to Whiteboards! And along with it, we've added the ability to not only add multiple nodes, but also on either side of the mind map.
In it's current form, you can:
- change the color of the parent and children nodes/connectors
- realign the mind map
- use hotkeys (tab/enter)
- some simple text formatting (bold, italics, underline, heading, link)
- change the connector type (straight, curved, elbow)
- Copy and paste these mind maps to easy duplicate them
We have more plans to improve how this works in the future and would love your help to know what you'd like to see next!
You might be wondering "what's going to happen with the original mind map feature? Not to worry, we're going to make sure that it's given love and new life! We have big plans for it that will be coming sometime this year.
Please let me know if the approach we're taking is meeting your needs and feel free to tag me with your thoughts. Thank you 💜

Check out the new whiteboards by adding one from your sidebar or by clicking on "+ View" on any hierarchy level of your Workspace!

Zach: Great progress! In addition to task-subtask hierarchy, I'd love to be able to visualize other types of relationships with a mindmap view. different types of connectors for "task" relationships, dependency relationships, and custom relationships would be amazing to map out and understand more complex workflows.

Zach: Thank you very much, that's awesome! As Whiteboards are much more powerful, we jus wanted to migrate over our mindmaps, but that doesn't seem possible (yet)?
I created a request for that, as I couldn't find an existing one. https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/whiteboards-convert-mindmap-to-whiteboard
Thanks!
Julian Pustkuchen
Devin Shea: Agree, especially non-hierarchical connections would be cool to be able to cross-connect mindmaps elements
Ben Pettit
Zach: This is awesome! Thank you for listening to suggestions and getting great work done!

Ben Pettit Julian Pustkuchen Devin Shea Thank you so much for the feedback!
Devin - YES. Candidly this is a big undertaking and we have other high priority features ahead of it, but absolutely something we want to get in.
Julian - It's something we've briefly talked about. I'll talk with the team again and see what the level of effort would be for something like that.
Julian Pustkuchen
Zach: I'd really love this. From my personal perspective and experience, I'd also suggest completely replacing Mind Maps with Whiteboards containing the Mind Map(s), less features to maintain, easier to understand for customers and much more powerful.
If it's ensured that Mind Maps Whiteboards have at least the same functionality, I'd 100% vote for that and drop that old one ;) :) Or let your users vote, if it's technically possible, but you're unsure...

Would love to have this option please!

We're looking into this for Whiteboards. Stay tuned for updates!

Zach: realizing I never replied back to Waleed below, yay!!! Yes, multiple root nodes. Basically expanding the functionality as much as possible. Mind Node that we use is incredibly intuitive and we'd love to have that functionality over in ClickUp.

PLZ MAKE THIS MEOW! RIGHT MEOW!

This would be great to have, the single node is too limiting.
