It’s time to present you ConceptDraw MINDMAP 5.2, the newest version of our beloved mind mapping business productivity software. Sure thing it adds Mac OS X 10.5 compatibility awaited by many of you for but this is not the main news.
Main news is that new version covers
1. Quick Look technology support (only for happy Leopard owners).
It gives you an opportunity to preview maps in Finder without actually opening them in the application. This can be very useful especially when navigating through files using the new Finder Cover Flow feature.
2. Significantly renewed user interface that makes application much more stylish and easier to use.
Leopard look-and-feel standards are replicated thanks to a new handy Clipart Library control that allows to open several libraries at a moment, modified Page Navigator that adds map previews’ reflection and a floating toolbar containing all of the ConceptDraw MINDMAP 5 tools.
3. Integration with the iCal that should have been added long time ago (this one is for Leopard users only too).
Because of the importance of iCal for personal task planning, ConceptDraw MINDMAP 5.2 introduces the ability to export information concerning tasks and events in a mind map into iCal.
4. Auto arrangement topic layout mode.
To avoid the mess your beautiful mind map can turn on to after deleting and resizing several topics, we are introducing an automatic topic placement mode that allows application to reposition topics after deletion, insertion and resizing operations. You can easily turn it off thus switching into existing freehand topic placement mode.
Updated: we've found some strange bug with new library control, will try to resolve it tomorrow.
Do I have to do anything particular to get QuickLook to work? I installed the update but the documents are just plain Mindmap icons in the Finder and I can't see the contents by pressing space bar.

Quick Look works only with the documents created or saved with the ConceptDraw MINDMAP 5.2. The reason - document preview is stored in a file and the old documents just don't have preview information within.
Please check MINDMAP templates or samples folders to check how Quick Look woks.
Hello,

I think I have found a potential bug. I just reinstalled the 5.2 version and now it works. I think, but I'm not 100% sure, that I had my language settings in Swedish when I made the first install. I have since changed language settings to English.

What I'm not 100% sure about is if I made the change to English before or after installing 5.2 the first time.

They only appear as icons for me as well. I checked the sample files and templates and created a new blank mindmap and they still only show as icons in Quicklook. Anything else I need to do?

Thanks,
