Hi,

I am having trouble creating argument maps using the advanced reasoning objects. For instance, if I add a contention box and a reason box, these initially appear ok—green surround. But when I drag the reason to the contention, the green and "supports" text disappears. The result looks like two contention boxes joined together.

I can join two reason boxes without losing the formatting, and then join these to a contention box. However, when I try to add an objection, the red surround changes immediately to green when a connection is formed.

Is there some special technique that should be used?

I am using Safari on the latest version of IOS.

Hi Roger,

be sure to select the outside of the reason box and not the box inside the reason box, before you drag it.

greetings,

Rob

Rob,

Thanks. I also discovered that once an advanced reasoning object is on the map, a basic reasoning object morphs into the equivalent advanced.

Regards,

Roger
