Mind maps and org charts

These are laid out for you. Select a box and press Tab to add a child or Enter to add a sibling, then type its name. Tidy re-arranges the whole tree. Deleting a box also deletes the boxes under it.

Process maps

Click Lane to add a horizontal swimlane. Double-click a lane's name to rename it, drag its bottom edge to make it taller, or select it and press Delete to remove it.
