OmniBrowser

Omni Browser is a simple browser designed to quickly open/explore web pages while working with the OmnLinks database.

Advantages:

• web pages don't take up tabs in the user’s regular work browser;
• web pages appear within the MindManager workspace;
• you can quickly and easily paste the text from a web page into map topics or notes;
• you can save web pages to the OmniLinks database in one click.

OmniBrowser only opens when you open a link in the OmniLinks Database.

OmniBrowser is a very lightweight browser with a minimum of features.

It has an address bar and the Forward and Back buttons at the top of the browser.

You can enter a web-address in the address bar to open the page in the current tab.

Select the New tab to open web page in a new tab.

Add text from OmniBrowser to a map

1. Select a map topic.

2. Select the text in the browser. There is no need to copy the text.

3. Click the Add as Subtopic button to paste the unformatted text as a subtopic of the selected topic.

4. Click the Add to Topic Notes button to paste unformatted text into the topic's Notes.

5. Drag the selected text to the map to preserve the formatting in the selected text.

These actions will meet most user cases when collecting information from the Internet into a MindManager map.

If you need more advanced text operations, use a TextStix alongside the OmniBrowser.
