What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Save .xmind file
2. Double click on file in finder.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

A blank document is brought up. Opening the file manually from within XMind 
works perfectly.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

3.0.1

Please provide any additional information below.

XMind 3 and XMind Pro 3 does not have this feature from v3.0.1. Because of the 
open
source policy, XMind has to look other solution to achieve this effect.

This worked in version 3.0. What do you mean by "Because of the open
source policy, XMind has to look other solution to achieve this effect."?  How 
does
this affect the functionality? It works fine for Windows.

There are a great many Open Source applications that open files on the 
Macintosh platform.
What are the specific differences that have been encountered with OS X, that 
prevent the proper implementation 
of double-click and the file opens?

I must admit, I still don't understand why all other open source applications 
can open files from a double 
click, but XMind cannot. I kind of assumed this kind of functionality is a 
built in part of the Mac's file 
operating system. Most software even allows for drag and drop.

I think I'd be happy if I could simply know *why* this is so difficult to 
achieve.

I totally agree. I'm seriously thinking to use again freemind because of this 
problem
in Xmind. 
Any program opens the file when you doubleclick it.

Confirmation that this problem still exists in v.3.0.3 (running SL 10.6.2). 
Furthermore, drag and drop doesn't work to open the document (dropping onto a 
blank
canvas, or onto the dock).  However, dropping onto an existing map will link 
the file
as a new item in this map.  Is there a status update on this?  Cheers.
