In this particular instance, the "history" tiddler (actually
TiddlyTools/History) is just an internal component of the InsideTW
documentation framework, so it only displays the actual button as content.
In my previous post, where I linked to this tiddler, I also said: *Drag the
title ("history") to your open TW and import it.* Other than that, there
is nothing for you to do with this specific tiddler. To see it in action,
click on the "clock" icon in the toolbar. That will show you the History
popup interface.
... and yes, InsideTW has a highly-customized interface, as it is intended
as a "documentation delivery system", rather than a general-purpose
TiddlyWiki resource. If you really want to look at the "innards", you can
access the standard TW SideBar:
1) Unlock the document by clicking the "padlock" button (upper right page
toolbar)
2) This will reveal additional toolbar buttons, including the standard
"toggle sidebar" (double arrow) button
3) Click this button and you will see the standard SideBar.
In addition, there are "page toolbars" (upper left and upper right)
The upper left page toolbar shows the following buttons (from left to right)
* Toggle left side TableOf Contents panel
* Home: clears history, locks document, opens CoverPage
* Favorites: show list of tiddlers marked as "Favorite" (star in tiddler
titlebar)
* Search This Book: search title, caption, text (limited to InsideTW
content tiddlers)
* Print: Prints entire book with full page breaks and formatting
The upper right page toolbar shows the following buttons (from right to
left):
* Settings: various theme-like display options
* Themes: pre-defined groups of settings
* Toggle "stretch-to-fit": adjusts "page" margins (landscape vs portrait)
* Toggle "lock/unlock": shows/hides "author mode" interface elements
If "author mode" is enabled:
* Recent changes: the SideBar "recent" tab, shown in a popup
* Search: "Goto tiddler" custom search/navigator, plus TWCore
$:/AdvancedSearch, plus a link to "PowerSearch" filter constructor
* Save: custom "Save changes" popup with optional logging of changes (see
"view log" button for previous changes)
* Sidebar toggle (as described above)
The Tiddler itself display shows navigation icons in the corners:
* Top Left: view "previous" tiddler (based on TOC structure)
* Top Right: view "next" tiddler (based on TOC structure)
* Lower Left: popup with links to "Chapter" tiddlers
* Lower Right: popup with links to "Appendix" tiddlers
The Tiddler "titlebar" area shows:
Left side:
* Breadcrumbs: path from CoverPage to current tiddler (based on TOC
structure). Click items in the breadcrumbs for popup list of other
tiddlers in that branch.
* Tiddler icon/title: if tiddler is not a "leaf node" in the TOC, click to
view links to child tiddlers
* Favorite toggle: filled/empty star. Click to add/remove the tiddler from
the "Favorites" list
Right side:
* History/Previous button
* History/Next button
* History popup button
* Print Page: prints just the current tiddler
* if document is "unlocked", additional TWCore standard toolbar items
appear in a floating bubble: More, Info, Edit, Close
The bottom center of the tiddler show:
* previous/current/next links (based on *flattened* TOC tree)
* clicking previous goes back/up one tiddler
* clicking current or next goes to the next/down one tiddler
* you can use these buttons to traverse the entire TOC tree
That should give you plenty of way to navigate around the document
framework.
enjoy,
