I also want something like electronic post-it notes. Moving blocks of ideas around on a page while maintaining the links to sources in the table. Maybe thereโs an integration that would work for me (ie. Zapier to Mindmanager). Being able to create and edit records in the visual view would be so helpful.
Yup! This would be great. I tried ZenKit and they have this option of mind mapping entrees. I love AirTable and Iโm not moving to ZenKit, but I really need this kind of feature on my life!
I put my vote in for this too! A freely associative, object-oriented mind map where every object can be used as a tag and tags become objects capable of having their own tags. Whenever I add a tag to one object, I would want the ability to have the tagged object add my current object as a tag to itself (tying them together) to make the search function easier. This would be a totally hierarchy-free system. Everything relates to everything else through tag-objects, and whatever I search for becomes the โfocalโ object, showing tagged/related objects all around. Filters could be applied to these tags to narrow down the results being displayed/highlighted.
Other views could then be created to show the objects/tags in a way we want to see. For example, a Calendar view could be created to show all objects marked as โEventsโ. Each Event block would display certain parameters. I also thought it would be cool to have a tag system that worked kind of like old DOS, having an ability to add tag โmodifiersโ to increase detail. Example: I want to save a Recipe, maybe I make this as โRecipe-isโ and in my ingredients, I could add the tag โRecipe-inโ. Both of these, if I created them as objects, would be added to the โRecipeโ object as a tag (the -is or -in would have no effect on this). The -is or -in would be helpful for showing how the object relates more specifically to the tagged object and might be useful in grouping things.
If there is another program that does this, please comment.
Absolutely agreed that this feature would be a game-changer. Especially with the release of the Gantt view earlier this year, Iโd love to see a Mind Map view implemented. We already have similarly functioning apps, like the flow and org charts. A view would incredibly expand capacity and cut out my need for other software like virtual whiteboards or ClickUp (which has a Mind Map).
Driven by a self-linking field that can be updated by manipulating the map, like on a gantt
Able to display stand-alone records on the map, unlike gantts and calendars that hide records without dates
