In FreeMind, a node is a rectangular box that contains text. Nodes are organized into a hiearchy, so they form relations named after a family metaphor: parent, child, and sibling. A node can be formatted by setting its text color, background color, font family, font size, cloud around the node, and more. The text can be plain or a [[rich text]] one, including boldface, italics, bullet lists, tables, and hyperlinks. Nodes can be folded or collapsed, so their children become invisible. Nodes can be connected using [[arrow link]]s. Each node can have a [[note]] attached.

Each node can be either a short node or a long node. A short node can only be formatted in plain text. A long node can be a plain text one or a [[rich text]] node. While a sort node is edited inline, a long node is edited in a pop-up dialog, no matter whether it is a plain text one or a rich text node. A long node can be split by pressing Alt + S in the editing dialog, or using the button "Split" in the dialog.

Long node

Each node can be either a short node or a long node. A short node can only be formatted in plain text. A long node can be a plain text one or a rich text node. While a sort node is edited inline, a long node is edited in a pop-up dialog, no matter whether it is a plain text one or a rich text node. A long node can be split by pressing Alt + S in the editing dialog, or using the button "Split" in the dialog.
