Import Issue from Mindmanager Solved #98449

https://thebrain.zendesk.com/agent/tickets/98449

Hello again,

Thank you very much for sending the sample map and screenshots, they helped us pinpoint the cause.

We’ve confirmed that when MindManager files are imported, image links are currently being read as plain file paths (for example D:\Downloads\image.png) instead of as properly formatted URLs (file://D:\Downloads\image.png). That’s why they open in your default browser rather than inside TheBrain’s built-in image viewer.

We’ve logged this as an improvement to the MindManager import process so our development team can adjust how image links are parsed in a future update.

In the meantime, your workaround of adding the file:// prefix or dragging the image directly into TheBrain remains the best approach.

Thank you again for your careful testing, your input directly helps us refine these edge cases.

Best regards,

John
