![]() We cannot download Dropbox changes when the app is not running. We can insist that Dropbox upload/download documents immediately. NB: This is pretty much how the Dropbox syncing works - with 2 key differences: There is no way to insist that changes are uploaded/downloaded - iOS will do it when it's 'good and ready'. The maps are stored locally (on device) and uploaded automatically by iOS (which is how it handles no internet situations.) You are NOT editing the cloud copy directly - that's an illusion. IThoughts gets notified when iOS has downloaded a change - enabling it to reload those changes. If there has it downloads them (into the 'special' folder.) This happens even when iThoughts is not running. Periodically iOS asks the iCloud servers if there have been any changes. Periodically iOS looks in that folder and when it sees something has changed it uploads it to the iCloud servers. IThoughts saves maps (intended for iCloud) into a 'special' folder on the iOS device. If you want to open a file stored in iCloud you must go via iThoughts (either use the 'iCloud' folder in the map picker or use the Share->Cloud->Download option.) Now iThoughtsX is setup to generate Markdown previews that can be read by Marked. Make sure the Markdown Preview is set to 'All Topics'. iThoughtsX (Mac) iThoughts (iOS) iThoughts (Windows) iThoughts is a mind mapping app for iOS (iPad, iPhone and iPod touch. iThoughtsX (Mac) iThoughts (iOS) iThoughts (Windows) iThoughts is a mind mapping app for Windows 7 and later. This is all a bit of a mess, so for now I've disabled the feature. Open iThoughtsX and go to Preferences by entering Cmd-U (U) and click on the Advanced Tab. Another side effect is that all files (in the iCloud Drive app) will be opened by iThoughts by default - not what you want. Cool! Except that opting in to this capability means that all file types for which an app is a registered viewer will be sent this way - not what we want. With iCloud Drive, Apple introduced a new way to 'Open In App' whereby the original document would be sent to iThoughts (not a copy) thus enabling iThoughts to make changes to it. This process involves sending a COPY of the document to iThoughts. This is a great way to get 'attachments' into iThoughts where they can be pasted into topics. It does this so that iThoughts appears as a target app in the Open In App share dialog presented by other apps. ![]() IThoughts has registered with iOS the fact that it can view ANY file type. Why can't I open 'in place' from the iCloud Drive app?
