I have a database of characters, and I'm using slices to store background information grouped by year.
Using GridPlugin I've built a simple grid which shows a 5 year block. The idea is that each column shows one year of the 5, and each row is a person who had something happen in one of those 5 years (see tiddlers at the end of this post). Eventually, there should be four of these grids, showing 20 or so years of background, with each block of five years only showing characters appearing in that period. So far, I have two problems though. Firstly, the column names are missing from the header, and I'm not sure if it is something to do with the names I'm using that causes them to be missing, so are there any hidden restrictions on slice names in TiddlyWiki classic v2.6.5 or GridPlugin 2.0.7? This may be related to the fact that the hide/show headers toggle does nothing to example grids at http://www.tiddlytools.com/#GridPluginInfo with Firefox 30.0. The next problem is that even without the 'all' modifier, my grid is currently showing everyone, even those characters who had no activities in any of the years selected. I can't see what I'm doing wrong here, so any help would be appreciated. If it makes any difference, these ExampleDatabase tiddlers also have FormTiddler and DataTiddler sections. Alternatively, is there any other way to do what I'm after, or something similar. I was thinking that one option might be to create a forEachTiddler per year, and render this as a list , grouped by year, rather than as a table, but I can't see how I would do this as a single forEach or how I might go about nesting one forEach inside another to do this in one go. Again, any help would be gratefully received, Mark..........
