Hi Måns, I suspect the only way to achieve this at present is to use a JavaScript macro.
You can generate the desired string via *<$list filter="[list[ThisTiddler!!listfield]]">{{!!title}} </$list>*. And if you define a macro *m* with that as its value, you can then say *<$macrocall $name="m" $output="text/plain"/>* to obtain the string as plain text. But you can't pass a macrocall widget as an argument to a macro, i.e. you *can't* say: *<$macrocall $name="sentences" category="All items" sentences=<$macrocall $name="m" $output="text/plain"/>/>* This is because you can't pass one widget as an attribute to another. It would be brilliant if the macrocall widget provided a way to assign its result to a specified variable. You'd then be able say things like this: *<$macrocall $name="m" $output="text/plain" $variable="sentences">* *<$macrocall $name="sentences" category="All items" sentences=<<sentences>>/>* *</$macrocall>* I can think of lots of places where that would be extremely useful. The set widget has a filter option which almost does what you want: *<$set name="sentences" filter=* *"[list[ThisTiddler!!listfield]]">* *<$macrocall $name="sentences" category="All items" sentences=<<sentences>>/>* *</$set>* But it has the side effect of wrapping double square brackets round any items that contain spaces, which rather defeats the point here. It would be nice if there was a *join* filter operator for performing concatenation (with a separator as its parameter), so you could say this: *<$set name="sentences" filter=**"[list[ThisTiddler!!listfield]join[ ]]">* *<$macrocall $name="sentences" category="All items" sentences=<<sentences>>/>* *</$set>* – æ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
