I’ll second that. I was looking for a mind-mapper, and so briefly tried Freeplane and VUE. Both seemed - as they say these days - counter-intuitive, by finding obtuse and clumsy ways to do what should be easy. [Of course, it may well be that it is my mind that is obtuse and clumsy.] I have had MindMaple Lite for an hour, and it is designed to do things in what I would call logical and ‘natural’ ways. It really flows well. Of course, these are early days, but I have uninstalled the other two programmes. This one works, quickly.
