Hand-Drawn Style in Xmind

The Hand-Drawn style in Xmind gives your mind maps a casual, doodle-like look that highlights ideas and makes maps more approachable. Use it for sketches, brainstorming, and creative note taking across desktop and web versions.

Open a map, select a node or the root, and choose Themes or Style in the toolbar. Pick Hand-Drawn from the available styles to change branch strokes, shapes, and fonts; the effect applies immediately and can be edited further in the Format panel.

• Select the whole map or specific branches before applying the style so only desired areas get the sketch look.

• Use Format options to adjust line width, color, corner radius, and text font to make the hand-drawn effect stronger or subtler.

• Combine with icons, stickers, or freehand sketches, then export as PNG or PDF for sharing or presentations.

Hand-Drawn style is ideal for informal presentations, creative workshops, and personal notes where a relaxed look helps ideas stand out. It is quick to apply, easy to customize, and works well when you want a friendly, approachable map.
