An extension can bring templates, mind map themes and preview styles. They appear alongside your own, under From followed by the extension’s name, for example From Lesson Kit. To see what an extension adds, select it in the Extensions section and look under Contributions.
Templates
Use an extension’s templates exactly like your own — see Inserting Templates:
- In the editor’s
/menu, they are listed in their own From section. - In template pickers in the editor, mind map and outline, and in the Template Library pane, they are grouped under From with the extension’s name.
Mind Map Themes
An extension’s mind map themes appear in their own From section of the mind map theme gallery on the mind map toolbar, and of the theme picker in Settings > Mind Map. Choose one as you would any other theme — see Themes and Styling.
Preview Styles
An extension’s preview styles appear under From with the extension’s name in the preview style menu, which you open with the preview style button in the preview pane’s header or by right-clicking the preview. Choose one as you would any other style — see Preview Themes.
Making Your Own Copy
Templates, themes and styles that come with an extension can’t be edited, because the extension provides them. MarkNode shows This item is provided by an extension. Duplicate it to edit.
To change one, choose Duplicate to edit. MarkNode makes a copy in your own library that you can edit freely. Your copy stays when you turn the extension off or remove it.
Where They Come From
In the Templates & Extensions window, the mind map theme gallery, the mind map themes in Settings, and the preview style menu, choose a From heading to open the Extensions section with that extension selected. If you turn an extension off or remove it, its templates, themes and styles disappear from MarkNode until you turn it back on. Documents you’ve already written with them are not changed.
