How to Use iThoughtsX on Your Mac

If you're looking for a mind mapping app that can help you visually organize your thoughts and ideas, then iThoughtsX is the perfect tool for you. This powerful software is compatible with both macOS and iOS devices, making it easy to use across multiple platforms.

One of the key features of iThoughtsX is its ability to allow you to move floating topics around on your screen. To do this, simply use the on-screen arrow keys (by tapping the canvas with two fingers) or hold down the SHIFT button while dragging. You can also use the 'nudge' feature by pressing ALT + Arrow to move a topic one pixel at a time.

When moving a floating topic, you may find that it snaps into place with other nearby topics. This is a useful feature that helps keep your mind map organized and tidy. However, if you need more control over where your topics are placed, you can disable snapping by holding down the CTRL key while dragging (on macOS) or disabling snap in the Preferences menu on iOS.

Another handy feature of iThoughtsX is its ability to select related topics with a single click. Simply long-click or press on a topic for around half a second and all related topics will be selected, allowing you to move them as one group.

While it may seem like moving floating topics can be a bit tricky at first, the solution is actually quite simple. Instead of trying to move individual topics, simply select all the floating topics you want to move by long-clicking or pressing on each topic, and then move them together as one group.

With its intuitive interface and powerful features, iThoughtsX is an excellent choice for anyone looking to create visual mind maps on their Mac. Whether you're a student, professional, or simply someone who likes to brainstorm new ideas, this software has everything you need to get started.
