Paper

Planning ahead might not be the easiest of activities, but it’s sure to give you a head start in any domain. There are various methods to use to plan your events, and one particular mode is the mind map. It can also be used as an example of how projects roll out, and applications like Paper are more than a suitable example.

Large workspace, suitable for view and edit

Before you can enjoy all the application has to offer, it’s recommended to check whether or not your PC is fitted with .NET Framework, because it’s a mandatory requirement for functionality. When launched, the application opens up with a preset mind map, which is extremely helpful to let you get an idea of what can be accomplished.
Most of the application window represents your canvas, and creation windows only temporarily show up when editing is involved. A double-click operation is used to create a new item. A menu shows up to let you set the tag, comment, font, text color, background color, icon, or even an associated file from your computer.

Comfortable controls and save options

You’re free to move objects around. The mouse helps you zoom in and out, as well as pan the view, since there’s almost an unlimited amount of space to work with. Sadly, there’s no possibility to have subitems hidden from plain sight. When it comes to saving, the whole project can be exported even as pictures of different formats.
The application comes in handy for quite a variety of activities, such as time management, diagrams, brainstorming, or even creating a family tree, the creation window also lets you specify a completion percentage in case the whole management is done in a team.

On an ending note

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Paper is sure to come in handy for creating all kind of mind maps. The large space makes it possible to clearly analyze your products. Creating and modifying items is done from a neat menu, in which you easily set a whole variety of details.
