I released a minor update for MindNode Pro and MindNode today. This is only a minor maintenance release, which focuses on fixing a bug that prevented Spotlight from correctly indexing node titles in mindnode documents.

I also included a minor improvement related to link creation in MindNode Pro. The application will check if there is a link on the pasteboard and will “suggest” it as the new link. If there is no valid link on the pasteboard, the application no longer inserts mindnode.com as the default new link, and leaves the link text field empty.

Change Log:

• When creating a link, MindNode Pro will try to extract an URL from the pasteboard.
• Solves an issue that prevented the Spotlight importer from correctly indexing mindnode documents.
• Fixes an issue that made it imposible to add nodes to an empty canvas.
• Fixes an issue with folded nodes when rewiring nodes.
• Fixes an issue related to undoing a waypoint location change after undoing a branch reorganization.

Zettt created a nice short screencast showing how to use and interact with MindNode Pro.
