Text node alignment

[tiotrom]

Thank you for this wonderful app. I was thinking that it would be a good idea for the text inside the nodes to be handled better: alignment and for the nodes to have a max width and height and use scroll bars to fit lots of text. This way if I add a big link it does not expand the node's width by the length of the url.

I am using it to "map" the books that I write and often I have to add more text or links and the nodes become too large to properly handle. Cheers!

Hi @tiotrom,

first of all thank you very much! I add the functionality for alignment to the dashboard, but at the moment the node scrolling is not among the priorities, also because in the export of the image I do not know how to manage it.

In addition, the program follows the characteristics of the mind maps of Tony Buzan, which means that if a node is too heavy, then it is preferable to divide that node into several nodes, rethinking the map.

I see, good points about such a feature not being compatible with, let's say, exporting as image. However maybe do them in a way that they can expand on click and autoexpand when exporting as image. Maybe that would work. On top of this maybe would be helpful if the shape of the nodes could be changes. I find squares better at fitting text inside. Cheers!

Yes, it can be a valid idea. About the other feature, the mmp library is already built so that in the future it will be possible to change the shape of the nodes :)

Thanks for the suggestions!

Sounds promising! Cheers!
