Let us start by building a summary based on
when our tasks and activities will occur.
1) Open your My Summer Holiday map.
2) Browse into the "Getting on the Plane" sub topic and select the "Pickup tickets & vouchers"
topic, right- click and choose "Journal"
3) Uncheck "Level Topic's Dates", check the box next to Start and then click Apply.
4) Now, select "Pack the bags", right-click and choose "Journal".
5) Uncheck "Level Topic's Dates", check the box next to Start and then use the date picker to
change the date to the next business day and then finally click Apply.
You should now have a task tree that looks something like the following:
Now let us build the summary tree.
6) Choose the central topic, now choose Tree Update from the TPAssist Ribbon (In MindManager
6, open the TPAssist Console from the export toolbar at the bottom of the window, choose the
"Tree Update" tab).
7) Now if not already selected, choose "All" in the scope, now click Task Summary, then click OK.
Your summary tree should now look something like the following.
Notice how each topic has a link. These links take you directly to the topic for which the
summary relates.
When working with the Proximity style, you can also use the "7 Day Horizon" action. As
illustrated below, this variation just shows tasks for the next 7 days, ignoring anything on
your plan beyond this point.
