Hi Stefano, I can provide you some information:
* a widget is based on $:/core/modules/widgets/widget.js ... all the methods defined there are also accessible in your widget (and work with values based on your widget, like the refreshSelf method, that works with your parentDomNode defined on top with this.parentDomNode = parent), or you provide your own which will be used instead of the one in widget.js * for your configuration panel this will be useful so that the widget refreshes its configuration whenever one of its configuration tiddlers changes: YourWidget.prototype.refresh = function(changedTiddlers) { //here, decide what to do, how to refresh when a configuration tiddler changes if(changedTiddlers["$:/plugins/myname/myplugin/config/myconfig"] || changedTiddlers["$:/plugins/myname/myplugin/config/myotherconfig"]) { //maybe when these tiddler change the widget needs a full refresh - depends on how your widget works. note that the refreshSelf method depends on this.parentDomNode being accessible, that's why it's saved at the top of the render method this.refreshSelf(); return true; } else if(changedTiddlers[" $:/plugins/myname/myplugin/config/myotherotherconfig"]) { //maybe this config needs just to update a configuration value ... this.configvalue = this.widget.wiki.getTiddlerText(" $:/plugins/myname/myplugin/config/myotherotherconfig"); //maybe I need to do some other processing / updating / refreshing based on an external library, maybe there's a way to update ... otherwise the refreshSelf method updates everything, //given that somewhere, like in the execute method (which is usually called in the render method and used to get attributes and make child widgets), you get those values from the configuration tiddlers } } //if none of our configuration tiddlers is contained within the array of all changed tiddlers (or if it's the otherotherconfig), just refresh the children based on this widget and the changed tiddlers //see widget.js how the refreshChildren method looks like return this.refreshChildren(changedTiddlers); }; So, the refresh method basically makes changes in your configuration in user-land update the configuration in your widget -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
