Hi SS To answer your original question, there is a big difference between the view widget and the transclude widget.
The view widget computes and renders a single string. The transclude widget recursively renders the target tiddler. That means that the view widget is a single item as far as the refresh mechanism is concerned. The results of the transclude widget, though, is a complete render tree, which can be selectively refreshed. We do have three formats for the view widget that wikify the string: htmlwikified, plainwikified, and htmlencodedplainwikified. These are all used deep in the saving process where refreshing isn't a concern. Best wishes Jeremy On Wednesday, February 6, 2019 at 4:53:53 AM UTC, S.
