How to Navigate the Dashboard

 

The dashboard is your “home screen” in MindMeister and where all your mind maps are stored. The left-hand toolbar includes options to filter your map library and access map templates.

This walkthrough video explains everything you need to know about the dashboard:

Sort Maps

 

In list view, you can sort your maps: 

 

  • Alphabetically (Click 'Name' in the header.) 
  • By the date they were last modified (Click 'Modified' in the header.)
