Importing Inspiration Outline

Post by danielpoulin »

Hello,

Cmaptools in now my my main mapping tool. I've choose it over Inspiration 9.

So, I've a lot of Inspiration files I'd like to convert to Cmaptools format.

In the file menu, I can import Inspiration outline. I've made several tests but I end up having the same massage: invalid file format, unable to import.

What's the trick?

Thanks for your time.

Bye!

hmmm... this was implemented many years ago. Can you send us as an attachment a sample file to use?

Thanks.

I think I've figure it out with many tries...

You have to export without prefixes... But, there is another thing: when importing the outline, every link displays a linking phrase like ???? in Cmaptools.

Is there a way to import an Inspiration outline with Cmaptools creating links without ???? ?

Thanks

Daniel

Well, the problem is that the outline does not contain linking phrases, right?

Time will pass and I'll be glad that my Inspiration files will became Cmaptools files...
