included pictures are missing if .minder file is copied to another PC

Open mabod opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

I created a mindmap which includes two images in two nodes. I added the images via drag and drop. When I copy that .minder file to another PC it does not show the images. It looks like the images are not part of the .minder file and I also can not find the images anywhere in any directory. Where are they? What do I need to do to display the images also on other PCs or when I send a .minder file via email?

System: Arch Linux with minder 1.14.0-1

This isn't currently possible. Minder stores images in a local directory on the machine in which the image is added. It is separated from the .minder file and doesn't travel well.

There is a Minder branch that contains some of the work to change the way that Minder saves files, but it is incomplete, out of date, and not a part of any "stable" branches at this point.
