Dear Olegh, happy 2019 to you too!
Just some loose thoughts as I have been working on a related concept lately
...
*1. TOC/Story lists*
- I am working on a solution to save and load storylists related to the
TOC. Basically you can choose a "chapter" from the first TOC level and save
a story list under it (tagged with it).
- This will be ready rather sooner than later, so you could have a
first look at it.
- Drag and Drop to reorder the TOC would be great, but I guess it could
become complicated when dragging into another (deeper or higher) level.
*2. Heading autonumeration*
- Tiddler titles are always rendered as H2 in existing story views. This
would make it difficult, if not impossible to use them semantically on
different levels of a structure like
1. Main title (H1)
1.1 Subtitle (H2)
1.1.1 Paragraph title (H3)
- Icons as numbers? My experience suggests that it would be a dangerous
hack to mix images and text together to resemble an entity (printing,
accessibility issues, ...).
*3. Headings: an alternative*
- I think of headings as text, that should be stored in the text field
of a tiddler. There we – as authors – have easy access to all levels: ! =
H1, !! = H2, ...
- A number could be stored in a field and prepended using a
view-template like {{!!myNumber}} {{!!title}}
- Maybe the renumbering script could count exclamation points (!) at the
beginning of tiddlers to decide about numbering levels.
- Ideally only a single title should be stored in a title tiddler.
*4. What about tiddler titles then?*
- I made a plugin to hide everyting not absolutely necessary for
readers, primarily tiddler titles, but also tags, author, date
(configurable)
see
https://tid.li/tw5/plugins.html#%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Ftelmiger%2FReaderMode
*5. Should authors bother about tiddler titles?*
- Not necessarily. Tiddler titles could be generated automagically, if
they were mostly IDs. The problem is: They are used for other stuff. Links,
tags, ...
- The TOC uses *caption *if present, else *title *– so I thought about
using this as a name for tiddlers ...
*6. Captions*
*What do you mean, Olegh, when you say: "The object description is stored
in field caption."?*
Image captions can be quite long AND language specific while images could
be language independent. A caption like
> Furuyama Moromasa. *Portrait of Ichikawa Danjuro II as Kamakura no
> Gongorô,* 1736. The Art Institute of Chicago.
>
would not be ideal to display in a TOC. But it is the official, required,
caption for an artwork. (Image link
<https://www.artic.edu/artworks/123402/portrait-of-ichikawa-danjuro-ii-as-kamakura-no-gongoro>
)
*7. Images*
Your image example does not use the figure + figcaption HTML structure I
suggested im my examples
<https://tid.li/tw5/hacks.html#%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Ftelmiger%2Ffigures%2Fui%2Frenumber-story:%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Ftelmiger%2Ffigures%2Fui%2Frenumber-story%20%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Ftelmiger%2Ffigures%2Freadme%20%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Ftelmiger%2Ffigure%2Fexample-image2%20%5B%5BFig.%20Cat%20Jack%5D%5D%20%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Ftelmiger%2Ffigure%2Fexample-image%20%5B%5BFig.%20Cat%20Sleep%5D%5D%20%5B%5BList%20of%20Figures%5D%5D%20%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Ftelmiger%2Ffigures%2Ffigure-macros>.
I know it is too complicated to create, but it should be the goal to have
semantical code output wherever possible.
*8. Citations*
Maybe add an example for citations
<https://tiddlywiki.com/#Block%20Quotes%20in%20WikiText> too? Would be
interesting with source/author references.
That’s it for today. All the best,
Thomas
