Getting things done in Freemind - the screencast

CEO, Co-Founder
Dec 10, 2008

A couple of days ago I published a blog post on getting things done in Freemind using the new attribute and filter features in Freemind 0.9.x. Back then I promised that I would post a screencast if there was sufficient interest in the subject. Quite a few people visited the article and David and Mark commented that they would be interested in a screencast, so I obliged ;) I know that the quality of the embedded video is not that great, but if you go to our Youtube channel you can watch the movie in higher quality: Look for the hyperlink on the right under the movie window. One last thing I didn't mention in the movie: if you want to work extensively with Freemind attributes you should definitely create a couple of keyboard shortcuts. Under tools>preferences>keystrokes you will find all the actions that you can assign a shortcut to. Make sure to choose a combination that is not in use, else the shortcuts will not work (I guess that is a bug). Especially the shortcuts that render attributes visible/invisible and the shortcut that calls the attribute editing dialog are really handy.
