Add-ons

Freeplane is extensible via add-ons, that are packages that can be downloaded from a central locations and that provide some non-standard functionality. Here are the first preliminary add-ons (for use with preview versions only):

Installation

To install

1. copy the link location of the download links (use context menu of your web browser).

2. Open the Manage Add-ons dialog via Tools->Add-ons.

3. Enter the copied link in the text field at the bottom of the dialog.

4. Click on Install.

Insert Inline Image

This script asks for an URL and inserts an HTML <img> tag at the end of the node's text. If the node is not already an HTML node it will be converted.Known from the example scripts page. The new menu item can be found under Edit->Extensions and it is bound to Control+Shift+i.

Developer Tools

This add-on collects some utilities that script and/or add-on developers will find useful. The new functions are available under Tools -> Development Tools. Among other:

  • Check Add-on: Adds all standard nodes, attributes and notes to the current map. Can be used with an empty Map to create an add-on skeleton.
  • Release Add-on: It copies the <addon>.mm to <addon>-<version>.mm and updates the script node's context from the files lying around.
  • freeplane.dsld: Adds Eclipse editor support for predefined script bindings such as node, c, ui, textUtils, ...
  • Insert Binary: Asks for a file to insert as text of the current node (BASE64 encoded).
