Re: Cross-file links
Terry, that would be awesome! Sorry that I'm such a dunce w/ Python programming. I started by looking at the plugin code, but quickly realized I didn't have a clue what was going on.

Not sure if you're familiar with the pane layout machinery carefully concealed in the context menu that pops up when you right click the pane dividers. Also accessible via Window -> Arrange Panes -> Pane Management Menu although that loses some of the left/right context that right clicking a particular pane divider provides. Anyway, this code: https://github.com/leo-editor/snippets/blob/master/examples/demo_widget.py gives full and minimal examples for adding a widget in its own pane using that mechanism. If you want it to appear at startup / load, manually create the pane where you want it, then use "Save Layout" in that same menu. In the linked examples the added widget is a slider that does noting, but you can provide your own widget that can anything at all.

GNXs don't include any file info, so you can only interpret them in the context of the current file.

Re: Embedding your own custom Widget
OK, I figured out how to embed my new widget manually into the main layout. But I am confused as to how to make it load automatically into the layout.

Re: Embedding your own custom Widget
In my enthusiasm I spoke before testing. This also opens a a window outside of the layout. :( On Sunday, June 4, 2017 at 1:39:59 PM UTC-5, Adrian Calvin wrote: > > Hi, > > I am trying to figure out the *easiest *way to embed a widget in the > layout, *exactly* like viewrendered. > > The problem is, that being a neophyte to both leo and python, that plugin > is just way to complex for me to use as a model or template at the moment. > > How would I go about embedding a widget, that I can then add other > controls to, textboxes, buttons, etc). > > PS.

Re: Cross-file links
Thanks, Lewis, but that's not what I'm looking for. I don't want the URL text to be in the body text at all. Consider this use case: - I write some content (LaTex, MarkDown or whatever) and I want to create several links to other references (for example, citations or further research). In Scrivener, I can link to other content, external URLs (web) or other files or folders. There's no limit to how many links I can create, or what type of links. - None of those actual link addresses are visible in the body text. They only exist as 'attributes' of the text content, much like keyword tags. - The backlinks plugin does most of that as long as the links are to other content nodes within the same .leo file. - What is needed is a way to create any type of link and any number of them that are visible in a different tab (much like how the backlinks plugin works). - Currently, the only option I have is to include the link URLs in the body text and comment them out since they're not native LaTex; not very clean and neat. Are there any technical, design or practical reasons why the backlinks plugin is limited to 'internal' links? I thought about creating a new plugin based on the backlink plugin, but I don't have the faintest notion of where to begin. Rob...

Embedding your own custom Widget
Hi, I am trying to figure out the *easiest *way to embed a widget in the layout, *exactly* like viewrendered. The problem is, that being a neophyte to both leo and python, that plugin is just way to complex for me to use as a model or template at the moment. How would I go about embedding a widget, that I can then add other controls to, textboxes, buttons, etc). PS. I know how to do this by adding to the log pane, but I want something stand-alone, that is always visible. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.

Re: Cross-file links
You can use the bookmarks plugin to create links to other nodes *within* a single .leo file. Simply edit the bookmark node's body text to include the node name: N:/path/to/file/my_file.leo#node_name and for multi-level nodes: N:/path/to/file/my_file.leo#node_name-->child_node Regards Lewis On Saturday, June 3, 2017 at 12:56:31 AM UTC+10, Largo84 wrote: > > [snip > > ] The bookmarks plugin doesn't really do what I need either.

Re: How to install on Windows 10
Firstly, the instructions for installing PyQt5 are at https://riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/download5 under the heading *Binary Packages*: *So long as you are using a supported version of Python you can install PyQt5 from PyPi by running: * pip3 install PyQt5 The instructions are a little short on detail :) but they are describing how to install the PyQt5 using pip. The easiest way is the open a terminal window and cd to where you have python 3.6 installed: C:\Program files\Python36> then enter pip3 install PyQt5 You should see the download and installation proceed in the terminal.
