See the shape of an idea before you decide its order
Some work begins as a web of ideas, not a finished list. Mind Map gives a SpacebarX branch a visual form, helping you explore connections and directions before you turn the thinking into a plan, chapter or project.
Brainstorm visually in the same place you will do the work
Open any branch in Mind Map to see its central idea and the thoughts around it. The map is another view of your SpacebarX outline, so every idea stays ready to be refined, moved and written into the structure you need.
Move from idea to structure
Start with a central topic and add the first ideas beneath it
The parent becomes the centre of the map; its children become the first ring around it.
Switch to Mind Map to see how those ideas relate
Reading a branch radially shows you the balance of it — which strand has five ideas under it and which has one.
Add, move or refine items as the thinking develops
Every change is a change to the outline itself, so nothing has to be transcribed later.
Return to the outline when you are ready to sequence
The same branch is already there, waiting to become a chapter list, a plan or a set of next actions.
Use Mind Map for
- Planning chapters before writing a book
- Exploring a research question and its supporting claims
- Brainstorming product, project or business ideas
- Studying a topic by seeing the concepts around a central theme
Explore freely, then write with clarity
Mind Map helps you make sense of an idea before forcing it into a linear order. When the direction is clear, the same branch is already waiting as an outline—no export, conversion or duplicate notes required.
Mind Map is available with SpacebarX Pro alongside Board View and Table View. See pricing.
Give your next idea room to take shape.
Start with one branch in SpacebarX, explore it visually, then turn it into the work you want to make.
