-----------------------------------------------------------------
CHANGES FROM V. 1.0.5 TO 1.1
-----------------------------------------------------------------

In both Standard and Professional editions of ConceptDraw MINDMAP, version
1.1 contains a number of fixes and enhancements. The "PRO" mark indicates
the changes added to the Professional version only.

GENERAL 

* (PRO) Export to the PDF (Portable Document Format) added. The hyperlinks
in the resulting document remain clickable. The PDF export also lets you
embed the fonts into the export file if necessary.

* The Find / Replace Text feature gives you more convenience in editing the
content of the current page.

* (PRO) The new feature lets you send a branch with all its sub-branches to
a new page, forming a new Mind Map. The original branch and the new map are
hyperlinked automatically. This lets you create multi-maps within one
document, and simplifies working with large Mind Maps.

* The Text Note is now a floating and resizable window. The interface has
become more convenient: the Text Note window displays notes for the
currenlty selected branch, letting you  add or modify it on the fly.

* The Mind Mapping Symbols (codes) improved: a number of new symbols added,
and they all now look more attractive.

* The new shortcuts let you add branches and sub-branches in the same way as
you add topics and subtopics in a text outline:
1) Return (Mac) / Enter (Win) - adds a branch of the same level;
2) Opt + Return (Mac) / Shift + Enter (Win) - adds a sub-branch.
3) Shift + Return (Mac) / Shift + Enter (Win) - start a new text line in the
text editing mode.

* The program adds more interactivity to the documents: for a hyperlink to
another ConceptDraw document, you can specify which page of the target
document should be opened.

* The Library Guide in PDF is now supplied with the program and also
available for free download.

* More convenience is added by the Remove Symbols command for the selected
branch.

* The new command added: Turn Into Central Theme. It helps you turn any
object into a central image for your Mind Map, supplying it with a control
handle for repositioning the text of th eCentral Theme. This is particularly
convenient for picture objects: in this way you can add text to such objects
(they become grouped with a text block automatically).

 
Bugs fixed: 

* In copying and pasting several connected branches, the connections are now
preserved. 

* A number of minor bugs fixed.



MACINTOSH PLATFORM 

* The Close button has been added to the Brainstorming dialog for more
convenience of use.

* The Copy / Paste mechanism improved: the paste from Clipboard operation is
no longer needed, as the Paste command works correctly both with native
ConceptDraw MINDMAP objects and the objects put onto the Clipboard in other
applications.

* The Brainstorming mode has got an additional shortcut for adding a
subtopic: Opt + Return.

* The Cmd + H now lets you hide the application.
The shortcut for vertical flipping has been changed to Cmd + Opt + H.

* The hyperlinks pointing to a file now function correctly.

* This version fixes the problem with readibg outlines with the Unix line
endings. 


WINDOWS PLATFORM 

* It is now possible to cancel the time-taking operations if necessary (e.g.
opening a document, Format Map, generating a Map).
