Is it possible to number items in a mind map branch automatically? I would like to be able to select a branch in a mind map and turn it into an ordered list.

Mind maps don't currently support numbering, sorry.

While not exactly the same you can prune the branch into its own collection. Right click on a branch and choose Prune To Linked Collection to prune off the branch and turn it into an independent mind map. Then you can right-click on that new mind map and choose Convert Into List.

Wanted to create a number list to help reference nodes and came up with the following.

Changing Curio Mind Map to Legal Numbered outline

MS Word treats the Curio RTF the same as Pages.

Exported the MindMap figure as OPML from Curio yields an XML file that Pages does not think it can open.

Opened the XML file with MindNode then Exported from MindNode as RTF Outline which gives bullets, unlike Curio's Tabs.

Opened the RTF Outline with Pages and the bullets have indent levels. Deleted the first node (avoid a single first level), selected the document, changed the bullets to Tiered numbers and reduced all levels by 1 level (moved to left). Now have what I was after.

Using HexEdit, see that MindNodes RTF Outline contains much more meta data than Curio's RTF file. The MindNode file is 20KB. The Curio file is 8KB

This does not put the numbers on the Curio MindMap but gives a way to refer to the nodes by a number when discussing.
