Add new topics or maps into a map.

1. In the Content Library, double-click a map to open it in the Content Editor.
2. In the Content Editor, click Open Library.
3. Add a new map or topic to the map tree by doing one of the following:

   • Drag and drop component(s) from the Create New menu into the map tree.

     

   • From the map context menu, choose between Append Element, Insert Element After or Insert Element Before and click From New File....

4. If prompted, from the Insert drop-down menu, select a relevant element and click Insert.

   

   Note:

   By default, the intelligent drag-and-drop selects the most optimal map element for you. For example, concept topics are added to maps with the topicref element. To select a map element manually, hold the Shift key while dragging and dropping a resource into the map tree.

   This behavior is configurable. To disable the intelligent drag-and-drop, contact your Customer Success Manager.
