Adding links

By this point, you'll have learned how to add more and more depth to your mind map. Links are a great way to take this process a step further.

1. As usual, first, go ahead and select a node.
2. Now, you can either type or copy/paste a link directly into the node title.
3. Or, if you want to hyperlink the text, you can select a node or a portion of the text and click Add Link from the Context menu (Mac) or go to the action menu (circle with three dots) > Node > Add Link (iOS).
   Keyboard shortcut: Command ⌘ + K.

Clicking/tapping a node with a link will bring up a pop-over. Clicking/tapping it will open the link.

Linking to other MindNode files

On your Mac, navigate to the menu bar and select Advanced > Copy Link for Opening Document. On iOS, tap and hold the file in MindNode to open the context menu, select Share, and now Copy Link for Opening Document. Then, paste the link wherever you need it.

On your Mac, you can also link to other files via drag & drop or by clicking the Link button in the notes pop-over. Nodes can only have one link to a file.

Keep in mind that the file is not imported into your MindNode file. Instead, an alias is added for the file pointing to its location on your hard drive. If you move the file, the link will not work anymore. Files are also not available to other users who share a MindNode file.
