Hi Folks I have managed to resolve the management of the system. Maybe not as neat as some other proposals could have been...but its working -
The english tiddlers get displayed in a TreeView format in a ShowPopup panel.....when the user clicks on an item it open in the display window...and a simple addition to the viewtemplate..sets a config.option to the tiddler title value.....which the sidebar uses to display the same tiddler. The display also has a simple button in the toolbar that uses newHere to open a new tiddler, tagged with the english tiddler name and the tag "portugues"....where the user writes the translation. If the user opens an english tiddler that already is partially translated...the viewtemplate shows the name of the portugues pair tiddler (thanks to a simple use of matchTagsPlugin). So, its basically running as I wanted....maybe a bit cumbersome.....but basically functional. Thanks anyway Skye On May 30, 10:25 pm, skye riquelme <riquelme.s...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi All > > I frequently need to translate between english and portugues...and > have help in this from friends.
