You can manage your own files and folders as well as files that have been shared with you by other users.
Choose
Manage Files from the Backstage
view.
The page is divided into three tabs.
The
My Maps tab shows your files and
folders, including files that you have shared with other users, if any.
These files are marked with an icon
in the Sharing column.
The
Shared With Me tab shows all files
and folders that other users have shared with you, if any.
For more information on sharing files, see "Sharing
files and folders".
The
Recycle Bin tab shows all files
that you have deleted and lets you restore them as explained under "Options on the Recycle Bin
tab" below unless they were deleted more than 30 days ago.
On the My Maps and Shared
With Me tabs, you can select a file or folder by hovering the mouse
pointer to the left of the file or folder name until a blue check mark
appears and then clicking the check mark. If you
click the name of the file or folder, it is opened. On the Recycle
Bin tab, you can select a file by clicking its name. To open the
file, you first need to restore it.
Click New
Folder
and enter the name of the folder.
Open the folder where
the new subfolder is to be placed.
Click New
Folder
and enter the name of the folder.
Open the folder where
the file is to be uploaded, and then do one of the following:
Click
Upload
and
select the file on your computer or device.
Drag
and drop the MindView file to the Drop
MindView files here field.
The file is uploaded and shown in the selected folder.
The attachments of the original file will not be
uploaded unless you pack your mind map before uploading it. For more information,
see the documentation for your desktop version of MindView. If you open
the file on MindView Online from the same computer where the original
file is located, however, the attachments are available.
Select the file or folder
to be deleted.
Click Delete
.
Deleted files are moved to the recycle bin where you can restore them for a period of time. Deleted folders are removed permanently, unless you restore files that were located in those folders. For more information, see "Options on the Recycle Bin tab" below.
You cannot delete an open mind map.
Select the file or folder
to be moved.
Click Move
.
Select a destination
folder in the dialog that opens, and click OK.
You can create, rename and delete destination folders using the options in the dialog.
Click Refresh
.
Click the three dots
to the right of the folder or file name, and then do
one of the following:
Click
Rename
and
enter the new name to change the name of the folder or file.
Click
Delete
to
delete the folder or file.
Click
Share
to
share the folder or file with others as explained in "Sharing
files and folders".
(Files
only) Click Download
to download a copy of the
file, and select a storage location if prompted to do so.
(Files
only) Click Duplicate
to create a copy of the
file in the same folder.
This feature is handy for quickly
creating copies of files, for example if you want to use a file as a template.
(Files
only) Click History
to see a list of earlier
versions of the file. Click Restore
next to a specific version to restore that version of the file as a new
document.
New versions of a MindView document are created automatically after a
period of time when you have introduced one or more changes. If you are
using a desktop version of MindView to edit the document, a new version
is created automatically when you close the document in MindView.
On the Shared With Me tab, you can see a list of users who have shared files and folders with you, if any. If you click a user name, you will see all files and folders shared with you by that user.
You can open the file for editing, download or duplicate it and refresh the view as described above. When you duplicate a file shared with you, the duplicate is placed on the My Maps tab, not the Shared With Me tab. If you end the sharing relationship with a user as described below, any duplicates you have made of files shared with you by that user are therefore not deleted.
If you no longer wish to have access to files shared with you by another user, you can remove that user from your Shared With Me tab, ending the sharing relationship with that user.
From the list of users
who have shared files and folders with you, select the user you want to
remove, and click Remove
.
You must select the sharing user, not the individual shared files.
Notes
The user you removed
can continue sharing files with other users, and the files themselves
are not deleted or removed.
The user can re-share
files and folders with you as needed.
Files shown on the Recycle Bin tab are deleted permanently 30 days after you moved them to the recycle bin. Until then, you can restore them by doing one of the following:
Select the file and click
Restore
.
Click the three dots
to the right of the file name and click Restore
.
Files are restored to their original folder. If you deleted the original folder after deleting the file, the folder is recreated along with the restored file. If you had deleted other files in the restored folder, these are not automatically restored, but you can do so manually if they have not been permanently deleted.
As on the other two tabs, you can click Refresh
to update the view.
