Hi, well done! What is the error of plist about? Can you post that, please? BR, Chris BTW: You can delete the mac plugin directory without problems, if that harms.
I was able to get around the apple classes by setting <compilerarg value="-XDignore.symbol.file"> in the plugins build file, but now the main build file is complaining about a missing Info.plist file in the app bundler task which seems like the final hurdle to building it for my mac. Looks like the plist file is xslt'd into the final plist file for mac app distribution - but I have no idea where the source Info.plist file comes from. </compilerarg> Any guidance to getting this to build on the mac...

Ok, so under jdk 1.8 provided by zulu (non rosetta) the security errors go away and it's just the MacChanges accessories plugin that is preventing a successful build. I'm also ignoring the Jabber plugin which is missing a jar (mindmapping over jabber?) Not sure what these Mac specific items are. I'm not a Swing dev so OS specific classes are not something I'm familiar with but I'll keep at it.
I have an M1 Mac Monterey, can anyone confirm that all Macs on Monterey are affected and not just the M1? I just tried to build Freemind, but so much has changed since the 1.0.1 source. The SecurityManager methods that were deprecated long ago are now gone and I don't know what the replacements are. The ant build script targets 1.3 java and Intellij isn't correctly importing the eclipse project. I lowest JDK for M1 macs I can find is 11, but maybe I need to look harder.

Hi Christian, this is a total shot in the dark, but could you try putting all font scales through this if statement for now? Maybe mark it as an experimental build for us m1 users? I would do this myself, but I don't know how to build it, I haven't used Sourceforge years so I don't know if you have build instructions somewhere (and it looks like the project depends on Eclipse somehow?) int scale = frame.getIntProperty(SCALING_FACTOR_PROPERTY, 100); if (scale != 100) { Tools.scaleAllFonts(scale /...

Thanks Oliver.
Hej James, as written somewhere further up ... just use this other product. it is 100% compatible as far as I can tell. All my maps have been imported correctly.
I am happy to assist with any testing or building. I have literally hundreds of mind-maps for and this OS upgrade has basically destroyed my productivity. I don't want to move away from such a fantastic free project.

Hi, I can't as I don't have such a machine here. Sorry, Chris
I would like to ask developers about this issue. Do you have any plans to fix UI on Mac OS 12 soon?
Awesome and thanks! In my version after updating to MacOS Monterey, zooming to 75% fixed the issue for the text visibility but then zooming to other percentages also worked so now the fonts are readable at any level. It is the 100% zoom that does not seem to properly display the text. However, the map file names shown in the tabs don't display properly.
I've been using Freemind in fedora for a number of years. I compare all other mind-maps to freemind. It appears that freemind is no longer available as of Fedora 34, and all I could find is minder. Minder Sucks.
For further reference, the same mind map works fine on my macOS Catalina iMac in the previous Beta version, 1.02 (off the top of my head). I also copied that version to the macOS Monterey machine and it had the same fonts problem.

Hi everyone! I am using FreeMind to help me study. I have made a mindmap but I can't seem to scroll down so I can't see where I am at nor where to add info. Can someone help me out? Thx!
I was using FreeMind 1.1.0 beta 2 okay on macOS Big Sur, but after upgrading macOS to macOS 12.0.1 (Monterey), the fonts in the user interface were completely messed up and illegible. On the mindmap the fonts were also illegible, but became legible when I reduced the zoom from 100% to 75%. I was not able to find a way to do a similar adjustment for the interface itself. I tried some font settings to no avail. I could not read much of the interface. I discovered that there was an update for the Java...

just out of curiosity: what made you decide against this Freeplane?
Hi again, I have decided to move over to SimpleMind. Really easy to use and still being developed. I don’t think it can import .mm files but for me this is not a problem as most of my .mm files are now archived.

Hi kenphused, effectively Freeplane works very fine, and it's quite similar to FreeMind. I'll work with it for now... but it can read very well the old .mm files created with FreeMind. Thanks
I tried to, but that's not really easy to use... @christianfoltin, maybe could you make it easier to use ? I'd like to present your software to my students but that's impossible for them to act like developpers badly. The same for me. : (
Hey guys. Given that the last release was almost six years ago, it looks like development has stopped on this project. You can move to Freeplane or... fork the project and fix any issues you are running into.
I hope it will be a new update that solve this rendering issues ASAP.
Also 150% works (if you have a big monitor :-) )
you're most welcome. I have been unaware of this app as well btw. So thanks for sharing and all the feedback, people! Love the internet (sometimes)!

Hej Arnold, as someone already wrote earlier: you need to open your system preferences and allow (Security & Privacy/General) the app to be opened. Worked for me. Also all my mm maps could be imported. UI is a bit different but at least I can continue working!

Hi, after updating my MacBook Air M1 to MacOS Monterey I have serious problems using Freemind to the point it became useless as I can't read anything anymore. All fonts (which work fine in every other program) seem garbled and are illegible. Please see attached screenshot. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Thank you for your reply. Here are my responses to your questions: Does the password contain any special characters?

I have been using a map with an encrypted node and an associated password for almost 4 weeks. Yesterday, the password failed to open the node and I still cannot open the node using the same password. I have installed the latest version of Java and reinstalled the latest version of Freemind. Developer help for a non-developer is appreciated. I have read other threads on this topic.

A number of years ago, I created a plugin for freemind that completely changed the way I used it. I use it to write code, access databases, generate styled documents (readable by word), websites and all sorts of fun things. It ran/runs on a very old version of freemind. I now want to update it for a current version of freemind and as a result I need to be able to compile it under eclipse. As of late I'm not quite sure how to compile it under win 7/jdk 8/ eclipse 4. Any help or pointers to documentation...
Charles, I've been using freemind for a long time, I have a plugin that helps me write plugins :) I use it to write program code, generate websites and a lot of other fun things. Its for a old version, but I can tell you it opens a lot* more possibilities than most imagine for mindmaps in general. I suspect free mind could help you do a lot of realy neat things.
Issue opening Freemind after Java update
Coming through 15 years later, and again in 2021! Thanks TJ!
It can happen time to time, as always. Talking of Java development process, you should understand, that a lot of things should be counted and developers should care about everything. If I would hire a java developer for my new project, I would try find them here ( url: https://anywhere.epam.com/en/freelance-remote-java-developer-jobs ), because I've heard that this HR firm has a lot of true dev professionals.
Hi, I tried to look for system requirements but couldn’t find any info. My concerns are as follows: What is the range of Mac systems that the current version runs on? What is the last version that runs on PowerPC Tiger (10.4.x)? What is the last version that runs on PowerPC Leopard (10.5.x?) Thank you!
Yep, the same issue as well.
I tried nestednotes. It seems that it's usable. But it takes serious using to tell the usability. Anyone has created a mind map with thousands of nodes? To me, the challenge is to have decent layout when there are a huge number of nodes. I'd like to know the keyboard shortcuts. Also, I'd suggest that your support of vim keyboard bindings. There are many mind map applications online or offline, besides Freemind/Freeplane, there are few that are serious for scaled usages. (In my opinion, Freemind/Freeplane,...
Hi Dawid, I tried nestednotes it a little bit. It works really simple and nice. I'm a long term Freemind User, too, and love the simplicity of Freemind. For a long time I'm searching for an possibility editing/viewing my freemind generated Mindmaps on my smartphone. For viewing the MM I use currently the app droidplane. But I can't edit, nor do I have a mindmap view there. Therefore I think nestednotes could be very interesting for me, filling this gap. Do you further develop and enhance the possiblities...
I am having the same troubles. Has anyone come up with a solution? Many thanks!
Hello, I have a forthcoming trip. I entered the details into Freemind on the PC with absolute links to a nearby folder of docs." I then copied the mind map "Trip.mm" into an new folder, along with the docs folder and made a new set of relative links from the docs to the mind map by drag and drop. I then exported the "Trip.mm" in XHTML (java script version) into the same new folder. When I run this new Trip.html file on the PC I get a nice tree layout with all the child branches able to fold and unfold...
Found the issue via other post of yours here, I renamed the image files in the folder. So i corrected in mm file and it works now. :)

Hi Folx, been searching quite a while, but haven't found anything, hope someone could help, if not with a feature, maybe with a workaround. I want to "export" my complex mindmap and create real folder, so that every node creates an own windows folder. I want to pre-organise my file infrastructure with it.

Just stopping by 10y later to confirm that @eviltabbycat approach works. I have moved my mind maps from XMind Zen to Freemind on MacOs, an example of a command is: xsltproc --verbose --output architecture.mm opml2mm.xsl architecture.opml xsltproc is installed by default on mac, the only catch is the xsl file, it's not present at the .dmg, to get this file, download the "max-bin", it will be there "find . -name opml2mm.xsl".

Just thought I would put a fix here that I encountered... For me graphical links were not adding using the new shortcuts (ctrl + C > ctrl + L), until after I inserted a graphical link using the dialogue box (right click > insert > paste as graphical links) -- after creating a link that way using the shortcuts (ctrl+ C > ctrl + L) worked fine.
