Possibly a strange question. I have a massive list of <option>organization type</option> as well as others lists.
I found, and got, the following drop down field working with a Tiddler for the field itself, and then another tiddler with all the options, one a new line, and surrounded by the option code. I then transclude the tiddler with the list into the selection section of the field code: https://tiddlywiki.com/#SelectWidget However, by default it seems that no matter what, when a selection is made, it immediately writes to a new, or the current tiddler, and replaces everything with the chosen value. Below is a snippet from a code provided to me in an earlier thread in order to generate a new Tiddler based on the values typed into the text fields. \define temp() $:/temp/input/$(currentTiddler)$ \define tocscript() <h1>$(storyname)$</h1> <div class="tc-table-of-contents"> <<toc-selective-expandable "$(storyabbrev)$" "sort[title]">> </div> \end | Story Name*:|<$edit-text tiddler=<<temp>> field="storyname"/> | | Story Abbreviation**:|<$edit-text tiddler=<<temp>> field="storyabbrev"/> | <$tiddler tiddler=<<temp>>> <$button> Create Story <$vars storyabbrev={{!!storyabbrev}} storyname={{!!storyname}}> <$action-setfield $tiddler={{!!storyabbrev}} text=<<tocscript>> tags="Stories" /> <$action-deletetiddler tiddler=<<temp>> /> </$vars> </$button> </$tiddler> My question is if there is a way to show a drop down field, with the options prepopulated, and have it act like the edit-text fields above vs overwriting the entire tiddler immediately with the selection? Or is there another way to reference/pick from predefined content in the body of the tiddler while editing it?
