[tw] Re: Printing truncates when Using MonkeyGTD tiddlywiki
Hi!
I found a workaround, but it does not work exqactly as I desire. The
workaround uses three columns, and they do print to succeeding pages
when printing. This is am improvement over the truncation issue. The
workaround fix was found here: http://twhelp.tiddlyspot.com/, then
click the "Formatting Tiddlers" link, then click the "TowColumns" tab
on the resulting page.
That page tells you to modify the Stylesheet tiddler as shown below:
-
.twocolumns { display:block; -moz-column-count:2; -moz-column-gap:1em;
-moz-column-
width:50%;}
-
Then, surround your code / text on the tiddler to be displayed, as
shown below:
{{twocolumns{ here is much text in two columns}}}
I substituted the MonkeyGTD code for the to-do tiddlers into the above
and it worked.
In MonkeyGTD, my tiddler contains code to display the to-do items
grouped by category (Upcoming Ticklers, Next Actions, Waiting For
Actions, Future Actions, etc.). The side affect that I do not like is
that the todo items run together. In the default multi-column views
of MonkeyGTD, using the "Cols" mechanism for creating columns, I can
choose to display each category on separate columns. I prefer the
latter as I can keep "Upcoming Ticklers" and "Future Actions" in the
left column, "Waiting For" items in the center etc. a bit easier
to use.
So I found the "50% solution", and it will work, but I really would
like to get the original MGTD tiddlers to print on mulitiple pages.
Thanks!

[tw] Re: Printing truncates when Using MonkeyGTD tiddlywiki
One more note:
I note that when viewing a SINGLE Column tiddler, one not using the
{{Cols attribute to create miltiple columns, that the tiddler DOES
work fine, overflowing to succeeding pages when printing. When using
the multiple column layout in a tiddler, none of the columns break
over to the next page.
Is there a way to apply the overflow property to a tiddler's columns?
Thanks!

Mike,
Thanks so much for the reply. However, that did not work. I placed it
both before and after the existing code. I saved the tiddly and re-
opened it. No luck.
Any other ideas? This is such an awesome tool, if it just printed for
me, for offline usage.
THANKS!

[tw] Printing truncates when Using MonkeyGTD tiddlywiki
Hi! I am using MonkeyGTD, built on tiddlywiki. I think it is awesome technology. I digress. I am having exactly ONE issue with this. I have a lot of tasks to track, so the print will span more than one printed page. When I print preview from Firefox 3.5.6, the tasks truncate as if a tiddler is limited to printing on only one page. I am going to e-mail this to the creator of MonkeyGTD also, but I wonder what you think of this. I was expecting it to just span pages like any other web page does. Thanks!
