Re: [tw] TiddlyWiki 5 questions
Hi Dave
Sorry I missed this week's hangout. Was on vacation in nearby Acapulco -
photos here http://www.flickr.com/photos/giffmex/sets/72157634758987625/
Lovely.
Playing around with Five, and I have some questions:
1. Is there or will there be a way to paste the pill (the colorful bubble)
of just one tag inside the text of a tiddler?
Do you mean an equivalent of the tag macro of TW classic? In TW5, you
can get the same effect with this:
{{NameOfTag||$:/core/ui/TagTemplate}}
That is interpreted as a transclusion of the tiddler NameOfTag through
the template $:/core/ui/TagTemplate.
There isn't yet, but should be, a tag macro defined like this to make
it a little easier:
\define tag(title)
{{$title$||$:/core/ui/TagTemplate}}
\end
With that definition, you can then write `tag MyTag` in the traditional
way.
2. Is there or will there be a way to display the number of tiddlers tagged
with a tag next to the tag pill, as the tags are default displayed in TW
classic?
Not yet, but there will be.
3. Is it possible to create a custom field called, say, priority, where
one inputs A, B, C, D or E? Then is there a way to do a [tag[]] filter that
is sorted by priority?
Probably easier to use a numeric field for the priority. One can then sort
with a filter like this:
[tag[task]sort[priority]]
4. How exactly can I make my custom style additions 'stick' upon
refreshing the browser?
Can you show me what you're doing at the moment?
5. Could the tag pills for a tiddler be moved, permanently or optionally,
to a tab in the information window? Or will there be a printing hack so
that they don't get printed with the title and content of a tiddler?
Yes, the tag pills could be moved into the info panel with a change in the
templates. You could easily hide the tags from printing with CSS:
@media print {
.tw-tags-wrapper {
display: none;
}
}
Many thanks for the feedback, keep it coming,
Best wishes
Jeremy

Re: [tw] TiddlyWiki 5 questions
Hi Jeremy, Thanks for the helpful responses. I will play around with them for a while. You asked what I am doing for style changes. What I did was create a tiddler entitled $:/StyleSheet and tagged it $:/tags/stylesheet, and added CSS stuff that worked. But when I save refresh Firefox it reverts back to the standard CSS.

[tw] Re: Find and Replace in all tiddlers
Ah I missed the tooltip that said it was regex based. That's even more
helpful thanks! It might be better if there was a message when the regex
doesn't work.
Just for completeness, I resolved my issue with the escape character \?.

TiddlerTweakerPlugin replace text function uses standard javascript
regular expression syntax for specifying the text *pattern* to match.
Here's a good reference for special characters in regular expressions:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/RegExp
note particularly the usage of ?:

Matches the preceding item 0 or 1 time. For example, /e?le?/ matches the
'el' in angel and the 'le' in angle. If used immediately after any of
the quantifiers *, +, ?, or {}, makes the quantifier non-greedy (matching
the minimum number of times), as opposed to the default, which is greedy
(matching the maximum number of times).

Perhaps you are using the ? incorrectly within your pattern. Unlike the
use of ? and * as 'wildcard symbols' in filenames, javascript regular
expressions use the . (dot) symbol to match a single wildcard
character. You can make that character optional (0 or 1 instances) by
adding a ? following it (i.e., .?). You can match any number of
characters (0 or more) by adding a * suffix following the dot (i.e, .*)

Re: [tw] TiddlyWiki 5 questions
Hi Dave
The problem with stylesheet handling at the moment is that stylesheet
tiddlers may be rendered in any order. That means that in order to override
an existing style you can't just rely on being executed second. Instead,
your style rules need to have a higher specificity than the corresponding
rule in the theme that you're overriding. (See
http://www.htmldog.com/guides/css/intermediate/specificity/ for a simple
overview).
For example, to redefine the body background colour, instead of:
body {
background: red;
}
You could increase the specificity by inserting an otherwise redundant
selector for the root HTML tag:
html body {
background: red;
}
Let me know how you get on,
Best wishes
Jeremy

[tw] Modified Dates in newJournal Macro?
*I hope this doesn't double-post, but it looks like Google Groups may have eaten my first post, so I'll try again.* I often pass today's date (or elements of it) to a newJournal macro call, as in *newJournal 0DD MMM (DDD)* to create a tiddler named *28 July 2013 (Sunday)*. (That's today's date as I type this.) But -- can I alter the variables as I pass them to the newJournal macro? That is, could I create a tiddler named *August 2012* by using some syntax like *newJournal MMM-1 +1*? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

[tw] Modified Dates in newJournal Macro?
The newJournal macro can accept placeholder values for dates in various M, D, and Y formats — but can you pass it values for days other than today? That is, could I have a newJournal macro call to create a tiddler with * tomorrow*'s date? Or have a macro call something like *newJournal MMM+1 -1* to create a tiddler named August 2012? (It's currently July 2013 as I type this.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

Er, the + and - in that previous example are exactly backwards, so presumably *if there were such a syntax*, I'd have to learn to use it * correctly*. :P -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.
