While it can be character-building to hunt around the new MindManager 7 menu for things like My Maps, Map Markers, Task Info, Map Parts, and the Library, you can save yourself a lot of time if you go in and immediately reactivate the MindManager 6 sidebar tabs as shown below:
This was mentioned in the ResultsManager 7 Review post as well, but I thought it merited its own entry. Further tips will be accumulated on the MindManager 7 Setup Tips on the wiki.

The MindReader, Outlinker, Mark Task Complete, Next Action Analysis, and Map2Excel add-ins are worth a look and can be installed by downloading setup programs.
Readers here have provided great ideas and tips along the way, so be sure to search or read through the archives and add to the comments.

Great tip. This should be the default setting in MindManager 7!
You can also find the same option by clicking on the Task Panes button in the status bar, at the bottom right of the MindManager window.

It sounds like MindJet may be contractually obliged not to make it the default as this might be considered a “classic” feature.
