Download a free trial of Mindjet MindManager Pro 6.

This macro updates any Notes fonts on the active map to the default font.

Details

If you paste text into the notes window from an HTML page, you will get fonts that you will find difficult to reset.  This macro resets all of the fonts in all notes in a map to the default notes font set from Format...Notes.... 

If the notes contains text in non-Western script, like Greek, Chinese, Japanese, Cyrillic, Hebrew, etc. then you should insure that the default notes font can represent those character sets.  The default notes font for MindManager is Arial, which only has character representations for Western scripts.   If you commonly use non-Western script, use a font like Arial Unicode MS that has a wide array of character sets for non-western languages.

Installation
  • Download the macro to your computer.
  • Start MindManager 6.
  • From the top level menu, select Tools...Macro...Macros.
  • Press the [Add...] button.
  • In the Macro Dialog, enter the following:

    Name: "Reset Notes Font to Default..."

    Path: the path to the Reset to Default Font.mmbas that you downloaded in the first step.

    Menu: select "Tools"
Usage
