MatchWare MindView 3 Mac Edition is a powerful and visual learning tool designed to help you develop and organize ideas. Based on the proven Mind Mapping theory, it enhances creativity, clarifies thinking and improves memory.

Mind Mapping is an ideal way to create an outline for written documents such as essays or research papers:
# Brainstorm ideas for chapters and sub-chapters in a free and non-linear way.
# Use the text editor (the note card) to associate comments and ideas with each chapter.
# Cite sources by linking to websites, text files etc.
# Visually reorganize your chapters in the right order by dragging and dropping them.
# Export to Word as a linear outline.

Export to Microsoft Word
When exporting to Word main ideas are exported as main headings, sub-ideas as sub-headings and so on. Use professional templates that let you include a table of contents, choose a numbering scheme, decide how to display attachments and so on. APA and MLA templates are available.
Re-import from Microsoft Word

If, while working on your document in Word, you realize that you have forgotten some key ideas that you would like to include, just make the changes, and import your Word document back into MindView. Your Mind Map will be updated.
