FreeMindPlugin

The FreeMindPlugin implements the %FREEMIND% variable to render FreeMind mindmaps from a TWiki topic. It requires Adobe's flash player plugin to run from the browser. FreeMind is open-source, "free" graphical mind-mapping software written in Java.

Syntax

%FREEMIND{ mindMap="pathToMindMap.mm" <optional attributes>}%

Attribute Description Required
mindMap specify the mindmap (.mm file) to display Yes
width specify the display area width in pixels or percentage No
height specify the display area height in pixels or percentage No

Examples

%FREEMIND{ mindMap="%ATTACHURL%/Wiki.mm" width="200" height="200"}%

IDEA! This example uses %ATTACHURL% to locate a mindmap file attached to the same page.

If this plugin is installed, you will see the sample mindmap displayed via flash player.

%FREEMIND{ mindMap="https://twiki.org/p/pub/Plugins/FreeMindPlugin/Wiki.mm" width="200" height="200"}%
