I'm trying to import the text file below and have noticed that the resulting Mind Map have nodes that are blank.

It appears that Lucid Chart Mind Map import only allows up to 9 characters per node.

Am I doing something wrong and/or is there a workaround for this?

Hi Rhyss

Thanks for posting in the community! Can you try increasing the size of the node lengthwise? I suspect if there is enough room for more characters they will appear. Let me know if this doesn't work.

Shrinking the font size also kind of works but this is problematic in that it adds a lot of work.  

The better solution is that the specific shape should "auto-fit" the text but I can already see in the comments this is not a feature so shrinking and manually adjusting is the best Lucid Chart can do I guess.

We're always looking for ways to improve Lucidchart. Would you mind adding your idea to our feature request form? Ideas submitted to this form are passed on to the product development team for their consideration.
