[tw] Re: Double clicking edits tiddler... any way to have cursor drop that that point in tiddler?
Hmmm. And if one could programmatically / automatically do this added to the double click. It may be a nice work around :) It will be browser specific. But who knows. ... -m This sounds like a neat idea. I guess Double-Clicking with a selection might not work, but one could copy selected text in the clipboard, then (SHIFT-)DOUBLECLICK on the tiddler which grabs the text from the clipboard and selects the first/corresponding occurence of that selection in the editor.

Maybe there is some way to programatically copy the word or couple of words where a tiddler is clicked in view mode and then when edit mode is triggered a script searches for the phrase and place cursor at the beginning of the phrase? I just have a very elementary knowledge of programming and I think while it might be easy to find out the point where the click occurs it might not be easy to find out which words are displayed at that point. So probably a manual selection might be needed to be done by the user. It might go like this: A user selects a phrase by click and dragging the mouse and then when he clicks edit button the current selection is read programatically and then after edit mode is displayed a searching and positioning of cursor is done by the script. This may or may not be doable because as I said, my knowledge about this is elementary. Sounds doable and shouldn't come with too much overhead. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

Not that this is impossible... but I would think it's quite the opposite from trivial. Consider this: viewing and editing in probably every single Wiki or CMS today simply do not go hand in hand as they might do in a WISYWIG environment. So, you must know that what you're actually asking for is nothing short from half the effort of creating a WYSIWYG environment. Not even TiddlyWiki5 seems to try go down that road. It's just an awful lot of work and code and I would think that neither the effort nor the overhead is justified... although it might just seem nice to have. Perhaps in a watered down version one might be able to identify, where - relative to the top-left corner of the tiddler someone has double- clicked and then try to position the cursor in the editor in a line at about that height. But I am not sure that this actually is helpful as the markup might just incredibly differ from the generated output. If you have tiddlers so big that finding the right spot gets hard, do CTRL-C, enter EditMode, then hit CTRL-F followed by CTRL-V and hit F3 or ENTER or some equivalent until you are where you want to be. My 5 cts. Cheers, Tobias. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group. To post to this group, send email to tiddlywiki@googlegroups.com.

Hi Tobias If you have tiddlers so big that finding the right spot gets hard, do CTRL-C, enter EditMode, then hit CTRL-F followed by CTRL-V and hit F3 or ENTER or some equivalent until you are where you want to be. Huh - That was a really good (and simple) tip - I never used/knew CTRL+F, I however often use CTRL+C, click Find in the browser and CTRL+V! This simple shortcut will speed up things considerably!! Sometimes/often it's just a matter of a little practical knowHow - to make things flow...

Hi PMario, You may not have provided a direct solution but you gave me an idea: I use PhraseExpress (http://www.phraseexpress.com/), and your comment made me explore the possibilities for automating the search and find process. It works pretty well - thanks! cmari -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group. To post to this group, send email to tiddlywiki@googlegroups.com.

I'd be interested in this too. I asked the same question back in 2009 (http://groups.google.com/group/tiddlywiki/browse_thread/thread/ f1deee0c783fdd9f/67ee83d8177dae24). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

This might be possible, though it would be tricky. I found that there is a way in javascript to place the cursor within the text area. See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/499126/jquery-set-cursor-position-in-text-area So we would need to: 1. Determine which part of the displayed tiddler text the user double- clicked on. (Or at least which paragraph. 2. Translate this into a position within the tiddler source. 3. Set the cursor position. I wonder, has anyone tried this before?
