In a Mind Mapping Diagram, ideas are stretching out across, which leads difficulties in tracing nodes with different ideas due to the unorganized nodes. It will be painful and time consuming to rearrange the idea nodes manually - this can be done in a breeze by Smart Layout, a new feature that based on nodes or diagram.
If the idea nodes are in a unorganized way during idea elaboration, the diagram will become unreadable. By performing Smart Layout, we can keep brainstorming and drawing the Mind Mapping Diagram without any care about the tidiness of the diagram. Any nasty diagrams can be well organized in a breeze. 
Below is a sample Mind Mapping Diagram with messy ideas nodes on it, we can perform smart layout to rearrange the ideas nodes so that it will be legible. There are two layout natures, and we will show the difference between them by this sample diagram. 
Node Based LayoutIn this layout nature, the selected idea node and its children will be taken into account. Right-click on the idea node and then select Layout Node in the popup menu. 
The nodes in the same level are vertically aligned. 
Diagram Based LayoutIn this layout nature, all the ideas nodes in the diagram are considered. Right-click on the central idea node and select Layout Node in the popup menu. 
For the entire diagram, the nodes in the same level are vertically aligned. 
Using Mouse GestureBy the Mouse Gesture, you can perform diagram based layout everywhere on the Mind Mapping Diagram. Right-click on any empty space in the diagram and keep pressing the mouse button. Drag the mouse cursor to form a "L" like gesture path in order to perform smart layout. 
Release the mouse button and the nodes on the diagram are aligned, and you can see Layout Diagram shows in the top right hand corner of the diagram.
