Find All + Show with Fade Non-Matching Topics

Andrey K. shared this idea 2 years ago

Greetings!

I like using MM's Find & Search facility located at the top right of the main window:

45cab7ad96d1063331109a51ea494919

However often, especially while presenting/discussing a complex map with colleagues it would be useful to have Find All + Show with Fade Non-Matching Topics as a single button or a keyboard key shortcut.

The idea is to quickly fade all non-relevant topic and highlight all the topics matching search criteria.

What do you think about this?


Thank you.

Is there a reason why you cannot use the powerfilter for this?

I see that Power Filter does this, but it also requires many mouse clicks (to configure search criterion).

You can save your powerfilters to avoid too many clicks

It is possible indeed.

Here is my user story: we plan a project and somebody asks: "Let's see if we have NAME item in other project stages". Here I, as a mind mapper, want to quickly show map topics containing NAME in the text and fade all the rest.

Hi Andrey,

still easy available via Power Filter. You can filter a filtered Map if you want.

In the Option are specific settings for filter. Deactivate the third settings. This helps in my cases most of the time.

Dear Andreas,

I appreciate your input, but didn't get the point.

What do you mean by "filter a filtered map".

As for the option: can you share a screenshot, please?

Dear Ary,

Do you mean Saved Queries command?

Dear Andrey,

filter your map and can filter the results again. If you made the right settings in the options. Deactivate "Remove filter first"

Use "Saved queries" for a quick filter, because this settings can be used in the Topic filters - see screen shots
