Ciao Eric *VERY nice illustration!* FWIW, I think optimizing iframes in their UI aspect could be very useful. Passing in height parameters for instance. I been doing quite a lot of work using iframes with Data Dictionary entries. The snafus have been mainly that quite a lot of sites now block

Hey Ray, I'm still mulling how to split the "gadget" into the various components for a bunch of mini videos. Starting with macros still feels like a good place to start. In the meantime, I did just a short introductory video of what I am now tentatively calling the "Kiosk Gaget" (like a self-

Ah, of course: absent all the spywarrr... -i mean *personalisation features* (e.g. cookies) built into Chrome & other commercial browsers- TiddlyDesktop gets the cold shoulder from Google web apps. No bug therefore; this is clearly a feature. /w On Sunday, April 25, 2021 at 4:46:18 PM UTC+1

Hey, that is mighty fine sleuthing. I don't know much about TiddlyDesktop (I live in Google Drive with TiddlyDrive Add-on). It sniffs to me like it (being a desktop app) can't get to Google Calendar because it has no way of knowing/passing-along your Google sign-in when accessing Google Calend

Good thinking Charlie; in fact that doesn't work either - in TiddlyDesktop, where i do all my tiddly-diddling, as a rule. It does however work fine when i load this instance into Chrome browser. Is this a bug in TiddlyDesktop, i wonder? /walt On Sunday, April 25, 2021 at 3:50:07 PM UTC+1 cj.v..

This would be perfect Charlie, if the Calendar call didn't pull an error ("accounts.google.com" refused to connect"). So, two questions: 1. *The band-aid:* How can i modify this calendar call so it's pulling from my own Google Calendar? https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?height=60

I've got this funny thought, maybe completely off, that folk who like and are good at APL can easily be TiddlyWiki masters. Folk like myself who like and are good at relational algebra, the math of SQL, can maybe come in a close second. Maybe. Just funny thoughts floating around in my sponge.

If one wants to save on screen real estate, that one tiddler could include all sorts of links to external content. For example: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?height=600&wkst=1&bgcolor=%23ff&ctz=America%2FHalifax&showNav=1&showPrint=1&showTabs=1&showCalendars=1&mode=MONTH";>Calen
