Is there any features to build a relation between two topics in markmap?

What do you mean by that? Can you provide an example?

Relationship for topics is an useful feature of Xmind. relationship There are two useful ways to indicate relationships between topics:

  • We can add a Relationship between two topics by adding a line to show they are linked.
  • We can add a Summary for several topics through a bracket with a label.

Thanks for the explanation, I see what you mean. However, the features you mention require generic graph structure. We only get a tree structure from markdown. I am currently unaware of a way how we could support this in markmap because of that.

A workaround would be to export the mindmap to SVG and then use an editor like Inkscape to add additional annotations.

You could use the link to header feature of markdown. This way we can also add text to the connections and make them directional.
