Import files¶
Supported import formats and file size¶
Files up to 10 MB can be imported in these formats: Markdown (.md, including Obsidian notes), plain text (.txt), OPML (.opml), FreeMind (.mm), XMind (.xmind), and MindGravity maps (.mgmj and legacy .mvmap).
Import a file as a map¶
- In the Files tab, double-click a file to open it as a map (it is placed in the current space). Right-clicking it and choosing Import This File does the same.
- You can also use File → Import Map… (⌘I) or Import Map… in the background context menu. Maps imported that way cannot be written back.
The free edition allows up to ten maps per project.
How import handles document structure and links¶
- Markdown headings and lists become the map tree.
- An Obsidian
[[link]]becomes a relation when it points to a map in the same space. - If an XMind file has multiple sheets, MindGravity creates a new space for each sheet.
