The file attachment feature in GitMind allows you to enrich your mind maps with supporting documents, making your ideas more complete and organized. You can attach files directly to nodes, preview them without leaving the canvas, and keep everything synced across devices. This is especially useful for managing project materials, study resources, or meeting files in one place. Let’s walk through how to use it.

Insert Attachment

• Open the mind map where you want to attach files.
• Select the node you want to add attachments to.
• Click the “Attachment” option in the toolbar.
• Upload your file (PDF, DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, PPT, PPTX, TXT, CSV). Each node supports up to 10 attachments.

Preview Attachments

Once a file is attached, you can open it directly within the node. GitMind supports split-screen preview, allowing you to view your files while continuing to edit your mind map without interruption.

Use Cases for File Attachments

Students: Attach lecture notes, PDFs, or study materials to specific topics in your mind map for easy review and better organization.

Professionals: Keep project files, reports, spreadsheets, and presentations linked to relevant nodes, so everything stays structured and accessible.

Teams: Collaborate more efficiently by sharing files within mind maps. Attachments are synced across platforms and can be previewed on mobile and web, making it easy to access materials anytime.

This concludes the tutorial for the file attachment feature. Hope it helps!
