Hi Andrew
My initial reaction: I don't think the ActionListops widget is suitable. Its 
primary purpose was to:-- take the contents of a target field/index-- 
manipulate the contents-- and save the modified contents back to the same 
target 
It can also take its input from one target, and save the modified contents to 
another target. 
But I can't see how to identify only the selected text as input -- this needs 
some way of (dynamically) saving any selected text to a target field, from 
which the ActionListops widget can take its input. 
If anyone can come up with a filter operator to achieve this -- then this 
filter could be employed with the widget.

Thank you for suggestions. Still trying to decide on a direction to go. Widget 
that returns selected so it can be used as the marker in ActionListops or 
hijacking ActionListops to create another operator? I've come across 
http://www.javascriptkit.com/javatutors/copytoclipboard.shtml but not sure if 
compatible with Tiddlywiki 5 archetecture. Any suggestions welcome.Happy

Hi Andrew

A quick look through the code suggests that it may be possible to implement 
this in the form of a widget -- perhaps an event listener, triggering a 
widget message that passes the selected text to a listener in an enclosing 
 widget (which then deals with the contents of the message.)

2016-01-15 Thread infurnoape


Thank you for your suggestion. A Widget sounds like the best direction to go, 
but would it have to be an event listener? Couldn't it just be returned via 
module-type macro and just return it from a macro call and then just use it as 
the marker in an ActionListopWidget entry. I want to try to get away from 
expensive event listeners. I have 20 different events that I want to call using 
buttons on my format toolbar. I think you have helped guide me though. It's 
tough trying to figure out what to do with new stuff when there aren't enough 
examples.

Is there any place in Tiddlywiki with handles on selectionStart or 
selectionEnd? I'm still searching for something in edit mode.

Hi Andrew,

I don't think there is... because it really boils down to you wanting to

   1. not only do something quite specific with the selection
   2. possibly have some result effect whatever the selection was to begin 
   with

It sounds a bit like this requires for some EditXXXWidget to support some 
new action-selectedtext widget that does some voodoo with a given selected 
text based on some criteria... and then possibly replaces the selection 
with whatever was returned.

I think, if you want to move ahead with this, you really need to go to the 
drawing board and sketch in every detail where you are headed.

Best wishes,

Tobias.
