[tw5] Video Background

[Scott Masterson]

Hello All, I've been using Tiddlywiki for quite a while now, but I'm still 
a bit ignorant when it comes to how it works under the hood.  I'm building 
a new site right now and I've managed to get everything the way I want it, 
but I would like to have a video background playing full-window in the 
story river, preferably with a button somewhere that allows the user to 
toggle playback.  I've searched by haven't found anything that gets me very 
far.  Is this even possible and if so, how would I go about doing it?  
 This is probably the best I've seen for the effect that I want to achieve 
(but the sidebar and the tiddlers would not be transparent):   How To 
Create a Fullscreen Video Background 


I'm using the excellent Notebook theme, if that helps.

Thanks in advance, 
Scott

[tw5] Re: Referencing a Field in another Tiddler during Transclusion

[Scott Masterson]

Tony,

Never mind, it was my bone-headed mistake.  I had the closing tag for the 
$set widget before the $list widget, so the variable I was using was going 
out of scope before the list filtered on it.  Thanks for your help.

[tw5] Re: Referencing a Field in another Tiddler during Transclusion

[Scott Masterson]

Hey Tony,

Thanks for the tips, they're really appreciated.  I found an easier way to 
do what I wanted, but without having to change the currentTiddler.  
Unfortunately, I'm having a problem with the syntax in the list filter 
that's driving me a bit crazy.   In the list filter, if I put the actual 
field values into the tag filter, it works perfectly.  But if I use text 
references for the fields, nothing is returned.  I've tried every syntax 
combination I can think of, and nothing seems to work.  I'm using a $button 
for the list items now and the list is always empty.  But when I was using 
a $checkbox for the list items, then the filter seemed to work fine.  

Here's the list filter with the direct field value substitutions - and it 
works fine:

<$list filter="[!has[draft.of]tag[Brief]*tag[14-33296]!tag[14-0]*
sort[title]]">

<$button><$action-listops $tags="[{!!super-opfac}] 
-[{!!parent-opfac}]"/>Promote
<$link to={{!!title}}><$view field="title"/>



But when I try to use text references for the field values, it doesn't work:

<$list filter="[!has[draft.of]tag[Brief]
*tag{!!parent-opfac}!tag{!!super-opfac}*sort[title]]">

<$button><$action-listops $tags="[{!!super-opfac}] 
-[{!!parent-opfac}]"/>Promote
<$link to={{!!title}}><$view field="title"/>



Forgive my naivete with Tiddlywiki, but can you help me understand what I'm 
doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Scott

[tw5] Referencing a Field in another Tiddler during Transclusion

[Scott Masterson]

Hello All,

This is my first post here, so please forgive my naiveite and beginner 
status.  BLUF: I'm trying to create a prototype for a notification system 
for a relatively complex military organization, and I'm trying to figure 
out how to reference the fields of one Tiddler, while transcluding another 
Tiddler field into a list in that Tiddler?

Now here's the long-winded version.  Each *Unit Tiddler* in the 
organization has a field with that unit's ID, called the *unit-opfac*, as 
well as a field for its parent unit, called the *parent-opfac*.  A *Brief 
Tiddler* can be created (from a button generating a Tiddler based on the 
Brief Template) at any unit level and will be tagged with *[Brief]* as well 
as its *unit-opfac* and its *parent-opfac*.  I want to use the *checkbox 
*widget 
to allow each brief to be promoted up the organizational chain by being 
tagged with the unit's *parent-opfac*. This will allow someone at each unit 
level to promote a brief up the chain at will.  I wrote the below code and 
thought I was doing great - until I realized that the *parent-opfac* and 
*unit-opfac* fields that I was transcluding were from the *Brief Tiddler*, 
and not the *Unit Tiddler*.  So, how can I filter/modify tags that are 
based on fields in the Unit Tiddler, rather than those in the Brief 
Tiddler?  I think the logic I've written will do what I want (see below), 
IF I can figure out how to reference the correct fields.  Thanks in advance!

Scott
  

*Unit Tiddler*

*Tags:* Title of Parent Unit

*Tiddler Text:*

! Promoted Briefs

[tw] Using HideWhenPlugin with SimpleRolesPlugin

[Scott Masterson]

Good morning all,

I'm almost finished building a TW-based quiz for the folks in my
division, and am having a problem with my HideWhenPlugin syntax.  I'm
using the SimpleRolesPlugin to determine what content gets seen
(hiding answers from quiz-takers), but when I try to use it with the
HideWhenPlugin, I get error in macro showWhen.  The goal is to
show the edit button for Admin roles, but not show it for everyone
else.

Here's what I have so far (in ViewTemplate):

div class='toolbar' macro=showWhen
window.simpleRoles.contains('Admin')
span macro='toolbar collapseOthers collapseTiddler closeTiddler
jump editTiddler'/span
/div
div class='toolbar'  macro=else
 span macro='toolbar collapseOthers collapseTiddler closeTiddler
jump'/span
/div

Any thoughts?

v/r,
Scott

Didn't work (I did add class='toolbar', but that didn't affect it):

div class='toolbar' macro=simpleroles Admin
span macro='toolbar collapseOthers collapseTiddler closeTiddler
jump editTiddler'/span
/div
div class='toolbar' macro=simpleroles !Admin

Now I don't get the macro error, but the edit button is gone and
doesn't come back for any username.  ???

[tw] Re: Using HideWhenPlugin with SimpleRolesPlugin

[Scott Masterson]

I tried this, but it doesn't work - the editTiddler button never
shows, regardless of the username entered:

!--{{{--
div macro=simpleroles Admin
   div class='toolbar' macro='toolbar collapseOthers collapseTiddler
closeTiddler jump editTiddler'/div
   div class='title' macro='view title'/div
   div class='subtitle'span macro='view modified date'/span/
div
   div class='viewer' macro='view text wikified'/div
   span macro='setUserName'/span
   div class='tagClear'/div
/div
div macro=simpleroles !Admin
   div class='toolbar' macro='toolbar collapseOthers collapseTiddler
closeTiddler jump'/div
   div class='title' macro='view title'/div
   div class='subtitle'span macro='view modified date'/span/
div
   div class='viewer' macro='view text wikified'/div
   span macro='setUserName'/span
   div class='tagClear'/div
/div
!--}}}--

This works fine, but doesn't use the SimpleRolesPlugin (so I'd have to
explicitly define the list, which I don't want to do):
!--{{{--
div class='toolbar' macro=showWhen config.options.txtUserName ==
'XXX' 
span macro='toolbar collapseOthers collapseTiddler closeTiddler
jump editTiddler'/span
/div
div class='toolbar'  macro=else
 span macro='toolbar collapseOthers collapseTiddler closeTiddler
jump'/span
/div
div class='title' macro='view title'/div
div class='subtitle'span macro='view modified date'/span/div
div class='viewer' macro='view text wikified'/div
span macro='setUserName'/span
div class='tagClear'/div
!--}}}--

As I understand it, the span macro='setUserName'/span line will
force the user to enter their username at startup, but then once
that's done it won't ask for it again - and in practice that's how it
works (which is what I want).  Could that be causing a problem with
SimpleRolesPlugin.

Also, I eliminated the PowerUser role in the SimpleRolesPlugin and
SimpleRolesConfig, as I don't need it.

Thanks for the assistance, I'm trying to get this last problem fixed
before I go on vacation this afternoon!

Scott

Nevermind, I found the error!

I was calling the 'setUserName' macro AFTER I was calling 'simpleroles

an Admin role ... stupid mistake.  Thanks for all the help!

[tw] Programatically Change Title Color

[Scott Masterson]

My first question to the group was answered so successfully, I thought I'd 
try again. 

In my TW, I'm using stories and randomtiddlers to generate random tests for 
our investigators (distributed as stand-alone tests).  Since I have it 
opening stories of varying lengths, I'd like to add a Save and Mark 
Complete link at the bottom of each question (tiddlers).  Save is 
obvious, but the Mark Complete macro would change the the tiddler.title 
color from red to green (or other colors passed as parameters) - a visual 
indicator as the work through the test/story.  I've been trying my hand at 
writing the macro, but coming up short.  Can anyone help?  Thanks!

Here's the TW:  https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3946724/Test-Bank.html

Thanks for answer so quick Tobias!  Those changes are useful, but not 
exactly what I was looking for.  Since I'm using the saveStoryPlugin to 
save my layout as a Test (there are 3 types), I need a macro that will 
close everything and theen open 25 random tiddlers.  Right now, the titles 
of the 25 tiddlers are written to a tiddler, but I need the actual tiddlers 
to be open, so that I can save them as a story.  Any ideas?  Here's my 
config file for randomTiddlers:

|''max''|10|
|''sample''||
|''tagged''|[[Marine Casualty]]|
|''exclude''|systemConfig|
|''content''|Source|
|''type''|none|
|''required''|no|
|''sort''|modified|
|''dateformat''|DD. MMM, |
!Template
!!![[%0]]

As far as showing nestedSlider to certain users, I'm going to try to use 
your SimpleRolesPlugin.  Thanks again!

 Hi Scott,

 I have released a new version 1.0.2 at...
 http://randomtiddlers.tiddlyspace.com/

 It allows for two new parameters:
 save: yes / no
 saveWithTags: Tag Tag Tag

 If you set *save* to *yes,* you are prompted for a tiddler title to which 
 the output will be saved.
 With *saveWithTags* you can give such a tiddler certain tags when being 
 created.

 I'd appreciate any help ... thanks!

[tw] Re: Using randomTiddlers macro with openStory/saveStory marcros

[Scott Masterson]

So, an update...

This is the macro I'm using to open a quiz/test:  openStory MC-Quiz Open 
Marine Casualty Quiz
This is the macro I'm using to generate a random list of questions: 
 randomTiddlers MC-RandomTiddlersConfig

What I want to do is this:   

openStory randomTiddlers MC-RandomTiddlersConfig Open Marine 
Casualty Quiz

Notionally, that would open 25 random tiddlers, which I could then save 
with:  saveStory MC-Quiz Save MC Quiz.

That's clearly the wrong code, but my coding skills are rusty and I'm not 
sure how to format the call - if it's even possible. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Scott

[tw] Re: Using randomTiddlers macro with openStory/saveStory marcros

[Scott Masterson]

Tobias,

I'm apparently doing something wrong.  I updated the plugin, added 
|''save''|yes| and |''saveWithTags''|MC-Quiz| to the config file and put 
thee randomTiddlersMacro MC-RandomTiddlersConfig macro in a tiddler. 
 When I save and reload, it asks me for a tiddler name (I'd really like to 
define the tiddler name in the config file), and then when I enter it, it 
asks me if I want to overwrite the existing tiddler.  So far, ok ...but the 
name changes from MC-Quiz (my entered tiddler  name) to undefined.  When 
I click Ok, it creates a tiddler named undefined and tagged with MC-Quiz, 
which makes sense.  But if I try to change undefined to MC-Quiz in the 
dialog, it won't let me click Ok and move on.  If I do allow the tiddler to 
be created with undefined, then when I try to open the story, it destroys 
the whole tiddlywiki.

I'm probably just missing  something, but how can I define the name of the 
output tiddler in the config file and NOT have it ask me to overwrite it? 
 I plan on putting the 3 macros in a systemConfig tiddler and having  them 
generate a new quiz each time it's loaded.

 Hi Scott,

 I am positive that the current implementation actually allows you to do 
 what you want.

 *save:yes*
 *SafeWithTags: story
 *
 *!Template*
 *[[%0]]*

 So this will save the list to a tiddler in the form of a story with 
 the name you specify.

 To open that story, you need something like this somewhere:
 *openStory popup label tooltip*

 ...and then chose the story you just saved.

 However, I have added an option to override any existing tiddler with 
 version 1.0.3:
