Use a template

Goalscape now starts up with a "Get started with Goalscape" user guide, which contains templates for some common uses of Goalscape.

Create and name your own new text fields.

Manage responsibilities

Create and save images

Export a snapshot of the goal map with no background – ideal for inclusion in web pages, presentations or other external documents.

Save subgoals separately

Save certain subgoal areas as standalone goalscapes, update them independently and copy them back into the full goalscape.

Export html documents

Export HTML reports in tree view and linear text format for full printout and pdf creation.

Copy goals into goalscapes

Share goals between goalscapes using cut (or copy) and paste.

Focus view

Use focus view to “zoom in” on a subgoal at any level to show it at the center of its own goal map. The miniature of the full goal map maintains the overall context.
