[tw] Re: [TW5] Calendars?

BJ/FrD

It seemed to be using it in the latest TW5, I set up a new empty, dragged 
the plugin (not just the two listed tiddlers) and this time I am not able 
to reproduce the fault.

Thanks BJ and FrD for the alternative.

[tw] Re: How to macro > var > macro ??

[Mat]

Try with the setwidget, or perhaps wikifywidget instead. The varswidget is 
not as powerful and I don't think it can handle macrocalls as arguments. 
Not sure.

Hi Steve! 
That doesn't look correct to me;

\define show-field($this-field$)

what's this?

<$list 
filter="[tag[schedule-elements]each[$this-field$]sort[$this-field$]]">


Should probably not be empty rows there and the macro parameter should 
probably not be with dollars.

[tw] Re: Topic Title and CSS

[Mat]

Yes. 

If you want the same styling applied to all titles, you can use:

.tc-title {...}


The very tricky one is how to apply it to *specific* tiddler titles. Here 
is a solution from deep in my lab drawer:

It requires that you have set *"titles to show as links"* in the 
Controlpanel. 
Then, you can do:


<$wikify name=xx text={{{ [[New Tiddler 15]] +[encodeuri[]] }}}>
.tc-tiddler-frame a[href="#<>"] { background:red }



As seen, the title must be uriencoded (e.g spaces become %20)

It's pretty cool though because you can do things like this 

.tc-tiddler-frame a[href="#<>"]:before { content:"Yo!"; position:
absolute; left:-1em; }

[tw] How to macro > var > macro ??

[Rustem]

I have these macros defined

\define colorize() color:$(_c)$

\define cn()
  >>
some text
  
\end


It works if I specify the color directly

<$vars _c=red><>

But how do I specify the color using a macro? This doesn't work:

<$vars _c=<>><>

Is it possible?

Thanks.

[tw] Transcluding a field value, one more time

[Steven Schneider]

Hi,

Can't quite get this right

In http://sunypoly-schedule-explorer.tiddlyspot.com/ the current default 
tiddler is a macro that generates a link to tiddlers based on values of a 
field in a set of tiddlers. So, in this case, a schedule, <$macrocall 
$name="show-field" this-field="room"/> --  all possible values for room are 
collected and put in a button; clicking on the button creates a tiddler 
that is supposed to be room-{{!!room}}.  It's close -- I'm getting exactly 
that: *room-{{!!room}}*. I'd like to transclude the value of room into the 
tiddler title, of course. 

Any help, much appreciated. Thanks!

(I find transcluding field values rather difficult, and I seem to do a lot 
of it these days...)

//steve.



\define getFieldValue() {{!!$(this-field)$}}


\define makeTiddlerName() $(this-field)$-$(this-value)$


\define show-field($this-field$)


<$list 
filter="[tag[schedule-elements]each[$this-field$]sort[$this-field$]]">
currentTiddler: <$link><>
<$vars this-field=$this-field$ >
<$set name=this-value value=<>>
1 this-field: <>
2 this-value: <>
3 makeTiddlerName: <>
<$button>
<>
<$action-setfield $tiddler=<> field-name=<> 
field-value=<> role="field-value" 
orig-tag="schedule-elements"/>
<$action-navigate $to=<>/>

\end

<$macrocall $name="show-field" this-field="room"/>

[tw] Tiddler's subtitle modification

[Marc-Olivier Picard]

Hi everyone,

I need your help to modify the subtitle to make it show the modification 
date in parentheses, after the creation date, *only if* the tiddler has 
been modified after its creation. I know I have to modify the ShadowTiddler 
*$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/subtitle* 
,
 
but I don't know what to change.

[tw] Topic Title and CSS

[TW Smith]

Hi all,

So, I was playing with CSS. I identified that I could apply CSS styles to 
h1, in the way you would expect.

However, is there a way to apply styles to the title of the tiddler that 
displays at the top of the tiddler, like a heading.

Cheers,

Sean

Re: [tw] Re: [NoteSelf] Bug fixes and (cool) new features

[Richard Campbell]

No worries - great ideas take time.  I think it's evident that there's a 
great deal of interest in a cloud-based tiddlywiki that has some aspects of 
user control. Having the data be in a cloud store "I" own is a great idea, 
just that it's non-trivial to do with the current set of cloud 
storage/database options. Seems like plenty of people here willing to help 
out, test out, and support this work.

[tw] Is there a way to build a viewTemplate for none-existing transclusions?

[Jan]

Hi!
Is there a way to build a viewTemplate for replacing none-existing 
transclusions with a template?
For my dialogue-editor (storywriting.tiddlyspot.com) I would like to 
replace {{non-existing}} by the title of the non-existing transclusion, 
preferably in small caps.
Could there be a way to get this working? Or would it be necessary to 
modify the transclude.js widget.


Thanks for help
 Jan

[tw] First pass at a Powershell launch script file for TW files

['Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki]

The default mechanism for saving in both Firefox and Chrome is to write out 
files with names like

tw_fun(5).html
tw_fun(6).html
tw_fun(7).html
tw_fun(8).html

This doesn't typically put your files where you want them, or with the name 
that you want them.

Since TiddlyFox is going away, it occurred to me that one way around this 
is to use a script file to pick out the latest tw file and launch it for 
you. It turns out that the powershell (tm) code is pretty simple (so far).

To run this, you need Powershell, of course, which I believe comes standard 
with Windows these days.

I put a file, launch_tw.ps1 in the same directory as the default downloads:

param([string]$stem="foo", [string]$dir="")
$copyme = ls $stem*.html | sort LastWriteTime | select -last 1
$copyme = $copyme.FullName
Copy-Item $copyme -Destination $dir\$stem.html
Invoke-Item $dir\$stem.html

Then, for each TW file I want to launch I put a batch file (e.g. 
"launch_tw_fun.bat") in the same directory:

powershell -executionpolicy bypass -File .\launch_tw.ps1 -stem "tw_fun" -dir 
c:\temp\twtests

The bt file indicates the stem name of the target file and the directory 
where to put the selected file. AFAIK It's necessary to use a bt file to 
launch the ps file because there is otherwise too many security 
restrictions on ps files. But perhaps power users would have a better way.

You can copy the batch file from explorer and make a shortcut to it on your 
desktop for easy access.

Then, to start a session, you double click on the shortcut and the TW file 
comes up in your default browser. You save the same way you've always done 
using the default mechanism.

Although this was done with powershell, I'm sure the same thing could be 
worked out in script files for other platforms.

I haven't tried or worked out yet what happens if you have file and 
directory names with spaces. One thing at a time.

This version doesn't delete anything, so it's up to the user to 
occasionally clean up their download directory.

Stem names need to be unique. If you have tw_fun.pdf and tw_fun.html there 
is a possibility that your browser will launch a PDF file (if the PDF 
happens to be newer).

If you try this, remember it's all experimental. Be sure to make backups!

Thoughts?
Mark

[tw] Re: Merging / Combining Tiddlers

['Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki]

By inefficient, are you thinking of writing code for each field? I'm pretty 
sure you can use a series of nested list statements to do most of the heavy 
lifting. Although it's a lot of records, it might still be pretty fast.

Good luck,
Mark

[tw] Merging / Combining Tiddlers

[Steven Schneider]

Hi, I've imported a rather dumb data set, which for various reasons came in 
three xlsx files. 

I know have three tiddlers (TiddlerA, TiddlerB, TiddlerC) for each record, 
which share a common ID field, and have distinct other fields.


How do I combine the three tiddlers into a single (fourth) tiddler that 
contains the fields in Tiddler A, Tiddler B and Tiddler C?

I seems inefficient to list for all Tiddler A, find the three matches on 
ID, and then use action set-field to set individual fields in a newly 
created Tiddler D. Might take a while too, with 175 fields and 1500 records 
(4500 tiddlers). 

Thanks!

Re: [tw] Saving in Safari

[Ton Gerner]

Hi Josiah & Mark,

Most of my TWs are scattered over a separate HD and/or Dropbox.
In Dropbox I use a TW5 folder (and a few subfolders)
Mainly I use Firefox with TiddlyFox. For uploading my guides to TiddlySpot 
I use Chrome.
Sometimes I use TiddlyDesktop (handy to have a different TW open next to 
the one in Firefox) and node.js (I still don't see the benefits for my 
normal use).

In short: the Firefox/Tiddlyfox combination works the best for me.

I just tried Chrome with "Downloads Overwrite Existing Files" to see if I 
could use another directory than the download directory (where Mark had his 
doubts about).
I changed the download location to my TW5 Dropbox folder which than works 
for (auto)saving TW.
For sure it is only handy when you stick to one folder otherwise you cannot 
use autosave in Chrome.

Cheers,

Ton

That's a good idea too. Unfortunately, the only solutions I could find for

Re: [tw] Saving in Safari

[Sergei Gerasenko]

Thanks for the responses. I’m now testing a solution with Hammerspoon (which 
works only on Mac), but basically it allows me to watch the Downloads directory 
and run a custom action. The action can be renaming  those -1,-2 files or 
copying the latest one somewhere.

Before, I was using Chrome and an extension to overwrite previously downloaded 
files.

Re: [tw] Re: Saving in Safari

['Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki]

Hi Ton,

Not sure what you're saying. Yes, you can change the download directory. 
But I keep my TW files in directories far away from the download directory. 
So I would either have to change the downloads directory whenever using TW 
or constantly be moving downloaded files out of the TW directory. Or use 
the save-as option, in which case I'll probably turn off auto-save ... and 
occasionally lose stuff.

Thanks,

Re: [tw] Re: Saving in Safari

[@TiddlyTweeter]

Ciao Ton

If you have only one TW, or are happy to have them all in one dir, this 
will work great.

I sometimes feel spoiled with Tiddlyfox in FF with 7 TW all in very 
different places. But *SHOULD* I?

Or should I feel pissed-off that in the future keeping MY structure is 
gonna become a PITA?

Re: [tw] Re: Saving in Safari

[@TiddlyTweeter]

Ciao Mark S. 

Be glad you can get it to save to a (sort-of) user designated directory ... 
the last implementation *only* allowed saving to the default download 
directory. I'm referencing here the actual add-on at Chrome Webstore 

 
... I'm not sure what the tech underneath permits in potentio.

The big issue with Chromelonger term is whether its going to dump Apps ... 
which its says it *IS* going to do ... provisionally early 2018. The 
problem is that APIs on WebExtensions--i.e. what lives on--are essentially 
directly, at the moment, seriously antipathetic to direct overwrite saving 
of ANY kind. That's my understanding. I may be wrong, I HOPE I am, but I 
never seen anyone assert otherwise.

Re: [tw] Re: Saving in Safari

['Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki]

The current download saver promises to remember the last download 
directory. But the chrome extensions may limit you to the download 
directory and subdirectories. At least one of those in the link says ..

Absolute paths, empty paths, and paths containing back-references ".." will 
be ignored.
  

If it only saves to a sub-directory of the downloads directory, that would 
be inconvenient.

I'm still wondering if a more natural solution might be a shell script 
(different script for each platform) that would find the most recent TW 
file (based on stem name), save it to the the target working directory, and 
launch it. For the rest of the session, the user would work and save as 
usual.

Mark

[tw] Isn't this a Developer Group (DIY, at least) in partial denial it is?

[@TiddlyTweeter]

I know that TiddlyWikiDev exists. I'm cognisant of GitHub.

I've been looking back over posts here, though. A lot look pretty advanced 
stuff. Well at least I don't know what half of them are talking about :-).

We are friendly. But I suspect we are somewhat intimidating for April 
MacKenzie and her followers.

There also seems to be virtually NO MARKETING of TW. No FAQ. No 
ADVERTISEMENTS. Nothing GENERAL to entice browsing visitors to try 
TiddlyWiki. *No regular PINNED advice for BEGINNERS*.

A little too much of an in-group. But THIS place IS the biggest public 
forum about TiddlyWiki. I am sure many people come visit but don't take the 
plunge. The waters look can look deep.

Just thoughts

I’ve been focusing on Chrome extensions, on the basis that Firefox is striving 
for compatibility; developing against Chrome would appear to give us the 
broadest reach. I’ve been studying the “Downloads Overwrite Existing Files” 
sample, which appears at the bottom of this listing:

Re: [tw] Re: Saving in Safari

[@TiddlyTweeter]

Ciao PMario & Jeremy

I believe Jeremy was referring to the Chrome Overwrite Saver 


IF its a Web Extension that would be good news. *If its an "app", it too 
will be retired if Google go ahead with their 2018 plans*.

My overall feel is that we don't need to panic. In fact TiddlyWiki 
stalwarts will do fine with work like TiddlyServer & Noteself shaping up, 
as well as other approaches emerging.

HOWEVER, for average, normal users, the increasing difficultly of simple 
overwrite saving is, I think, a big issue, that will grow. I think it 
limits uptake of TW. Which is a great shame IMO.

Re: [tw] Re: Saving in Safari

[Jeremy Ruston]

Until sometime in the last few months, Safari didn’t support directly 
downloading changes; instead one had to right click and save a base64 generated 
URL. Safari does now handle the downloads properly, so the standard HTML5 
fallback saver now works OK on Safari.

It wouldn’t need to be a TiddlyWiki-specific addon. There are addons for Chrome 
that force downloads to overwrite the previous file, and these work well with 
TiddlyWiki.

> In addition you should note that ALL standard browsers will cease simple 
> overwrite saving by early 2018.

It’s not quite that bad: TiddlyFox will stop working in the latest versions of 
Firefox, but those download overwriting plugins will still work.

Best wishes

Jeremy.
