@Soren, I have been trying to make a two column view for my World Building project. The idea was that someone could be editing a Tiddler (entry) or writing a chapter (again a Tiddler) and then have the world details above in an isolated row that scrolled. Kind of like Stroll but instead of two columns it would have two rows to switch the Tiddlers between.
However, your CSS gave me an idea and my question is, as I sit here shaking and jittering like I have waaaaaaaay too much sugar, can you tell me if my changes to the edit-frame css breaks anything in your mind? I think I figured out how I can, and now want to, have the edit and viewing breakdown. Again, I just want to make sure I'm not butchering something else without realizing it. Thank you so much if you can and for your CSS/idea! div.tc-tiddler-frame { max-width: 60em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } div.tc-tiddler-edit-frame { max-width: 90em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-height: 500px; overflow:auto; position: fixed; bottom: 0; z-index:2; } div.tc-tiddler-body { max-width: 50em; margin: auto; } .tc-tiddler-frame .tc-tiddler-preview .tc-edit-texteditor { width: 69%; } div.tc-tiddler-preview-preview { width: 29%; } On Tuesday, June 15, 2021 at 10:44:00 PM UTC-4 Soren Bjornstad wrote: > While we're discussing story river layouts, I've been playing with the > following odd-looking but surprisingly functional layout for a couple of > days, in an attempt to make optimal use of the 24" monitors where I do most > of my editing: > > [image: widening.png] > > As you can see, the story river is centered, but tiddlers get wider when > you go into edit mode, so there's additional space for a side-by-side > preview when editing but lines don't get too long to comfortably read when > viewing.
