Thanks for the tip. I tried the beta today (1.5.6). It doesn’t operate correctly on OS X 10.11—but no one said it would, either. There is a “outline” option in the view settings but it appears to do nothing yet—though the app is so buggy for me on El Capitan that it is hard to judge. (FWIW, El Capitan seems to have serious issues with Java apps.)

It looks like freeplane is under a burst of development.

Does anyone know if there are screenshots or videos of the recent version(s), especially showing filtering in action and any of the new features like clones, etc? Thanks.

is a fork of Freemind that a Hong Kong dev has done a good job with.

I far prefer it visually to Freeplane/Freemind.

Forum participants may want to investigate. I think there is a free basic variant vs a “Pro”.

Are you sure? Xmind has a totally different look and behaviour.
