2018. Mindomo gets new search functionality



Mindomo's search tool has undergone significant enhancements, offering users a more robust experience. The search functionality now encompasses all mind maps, whether they are private or public, and scans their entire content. Suppose you're trying to locate a specific map containing this week's to-do list but can't recall the title. However, you remember that the term "grocery shopping" was mentioned in the mind map. In such a case, you simply need to enter "grocery" in the Search bar. The search results will first display all your private mind maps that match the keyword, taking into account the map title, content within topics, notes, comments, and even the Task Info section. Upon locating your desired mind map and accessing it, it will always open in a new tab for easy navigation. To ensure that your search results are unmistakable, the keyword will be highlighted wherever it appears. Additionally, if the keyword is found in the notes, comments, Task Info, or multimedia panels, the corresponding panel will be automatically expanded for better visibility.
