[tw] Re: [TW5] Best up-to-date & stable data visualization plugin (e.g. json) for charts?

2016-09-27 Thread David Gifford
That d3 plugin got me really excited about TiddlyWiki 5. There was talk of 
making plugins for various data visualizations. But to my knowledge they 
never materialized. Let's hope someone takes up the challenge.

[tw] Re: Am I alone on mobile usage of TW?

2016-09-27 Thread Mark Brown
For me, the tw5 reading/browsing experience is great on mobile. I do find 
that the default edit template is a bit clunky on mobile. Part of that 
might be that i tend to turn on preview and lots of toolbar options for 
convenience when on desktop , but then that creates a lot of clutter when 
on mobile. However, I suspect a few css tweaks might address that quite 
easily.

[tw] [TW5] Best up-to-date & stable data visualization plugin (e.g. json) for charts?

2016-09-27 Thread NT
Hi there. I was looking for some viz plugins and thought this should be an 
easy task.

But I found that the d3 plugin is still a proof of concept and other 
plugins are outdated, for TWc, experimental, without tw5 docs, or not made 
for data charts.

So I am looking for just one data visualization technology - probably in 
form of a TW5 plugin.
It should be
* stable - beta is ok, but please not experimental
* with docs for setup and usage in TW5
and optionally
* with support for representation of external json tiddlers
* and short, easy to use syntax

With chart I mean things like bar chart, pie chart, line chart and so on.

I would be very pleased, if there are any recommendations around :-)

[tw] Calendar

2016-09-27 Thread Egbert


Hello,


I would be also interested in a date picker for the extendable calendar 
from bjtools. Because of my limited capabilities in programming, I tried to 
use the datepicker by kixam as well as the two datepicker plugins created 
by FrD. This failed (of course), since the datepicker plugins are not 
specifically created for the calendar from bjtools ;-). As I said, my 
programming abilities are the limiting factor.  I also tried to use the 
simplecalendar plugin by FrD (instead of bjtools), but somehow the chosen 
date would not turn red in the sidebar (as it should be, I think); the 
current date however is shown with a different background colour as it 
should be, no problem.  I hope someone could be able to help me out in this 
forum.


Otherwise I really like this magnificent little piece of software and the 
very active and very skilled community; TiddlyWiki triggers an interest in 
understanding the software you’re dealing with, also for non-programmers. 
Very well done!

[tw] Re: Am I alone on mobile usage of TW?

2016-09-27 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
The biggest problem* I've* seen in using TW on mobile, is that the editor 
doesn't keep up with the keyboard.

I've commented on this before. Apparently ever since TW5 there is some sort 
of constant refresh loop going on. I suppose it makes the letter-by-letter 
search possible, but I would prefer typing speed over a trendy search 
engine.  If you're a touch-typist, or typing on an ordinary tablet, you 
will see definite lag. I don't experience the same lag in other apps like 
Simplenote or Evernote.

BJ posted some instructions for altering a variable that may make a 
difference. I believe only steps #4 and on are necessary now. (except you 
probably want to make a backup still).

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/1cOZyZKKFrY/rnacrjW90YMJ  

I just tried it, but cranked the value up to 4. It might be doing 
something. Try it and see.

[tw] [TW5] My new poject on Tiddlywiki and my new questions...

2016-09-27 Thread sini-Kit
Hi! I use TW5 as CMS for making sites (on-line stores, blogs and so on) and 
today I start new project http://design4shop.ru/ (
http://design4shop.ru/heeg.html) 
this site is about design of off-line non-food stores. I want to make a 
great collection of shops from all over the world and attach to them some 
fields with parameters: style, size, color, type so peple can select 
shop they like very fast.

I have a great number of folders with pictures. Each folder contain 
3-10 photos for each shop. So my first proble was to use many  EXTERNAL 
photos with "alt" tag and some info about this photo, and my second problem 
was to take titles of folders, automatically make shop tiddlers with this 
titles and   automatically attach (by tag) external photos from problem 1. 
The only way I found was EXCEL . I download simple macros which make table 
with files and path to them. then using excel formulas  prepare TW5 table, 
export it to html file, and then import this file to my TW5 site. This 
variant saved me lots of time, but may be it is possible to use node.js for 
this purposes?


The next my idea was, that if TW5 will have more easy mechanism of working 
with many external pictures, it can be a good CMS for different collectors 
of coins, stamps or art. This people can save photos of their coins with 
different parameters. For example: gold, 18 century, Russia, and some text 
about this coin. And using filters + checkboxes (or search) quickly find 
photo in their collection. TW5 can become a kind of  personal catalog for 
collectors.

Re: [tw] Re: [TW5] Issue using the KeyboardWidget with the add tag text field

2016-09-27 Thread Jeremy Ruston
Hi Novan

Expanding on Mario’s answer, the specific problem here is that each change to 
$:/temp/NewTagName triggers a refresh of the entire keyboard widget. You can 
avoid it by switching to using an action widget via the “actions” attribute. 
For example

\define the-actions()
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-add-tag" $param={{$:/temp/NewTagName}}/>
\end

<$keyboard key=“enter” actions=<>>
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/temp/NewTagName" tag="input" default="" 
placeholder={{$:/language/EditTemplate/Tags/Add/Placeholder}} 
focusPopup=<> 
class="tc-edit-texteditor tc-popup-handle"/>


Here, the content of the “actions” attribute isn’t parsed and rendered until 
the action is triggered, avoiding the refresh problem.

Best wishes

Jeremy.

[tw] Re: Am I alone on mobile usage of TW?

2016-09-27 Thread David Szego
Hi Danielo,

So... I've fixed the scroll problems with *Cardo* , and 
packaged up both the code and the UI tweaks as a proper theme and plugin. 
That will be posted in the next day or two.

More than preventing horizontal scroll, I've added CSS media selectors to 
make all buttons bigger when it thinks it's on a phone or tablet. This 
makes it actually *usable *on my Note4 and any 7" 1280x800 tablet. In fact, 
it shrinks quite nicely right down to 480x320 (landscape).

Even better, now that I'm only concerned about scrolling up and down, 
viewing Cards (Tiddlers, see other discussion!) at full-width, I've started 
to add code to allow swiping left-right on a Tiddler to switch between 
Tiddlers open in the storyView, by adding a touchstart / touchend listener 
to the tc-tiddler-frame div.

If anyone could offer help with *that*, I'd really love it. We can start a 
separate thread.

The biggest problem* I've* seen in using TW on mobile, is that the editor 
doesn't keep up with the keyboard.

You don't miss anything. ... That's a problem "by design" and html input 
element focus behaviour :/

The TiddlyWiki5 widget refresh mechanism is much more aggressive then 
TWclassic's. It basically propagates every single key stroke. That makes it 
possible, to dynamically update the eg: tag dropdown. Which gets shorter 
everytime you add a new character. That behaviour is intended, but there is 
a donwside too.

Since the keyboard widget wrapps the edit-text widget, every time you type 
a character both of them are redrawn, which causes a focus loss for the 
text input. 

The only possibility imo would be a new edit-xxx widget, that propagates 
text changes only on eg: shift or ctrl presses. Which would be an 
interesting experiment.

have fun!

[tw] [TW5] How can you make markdown the default when creating from missing tiddler?

2016-09-27 Thread Richard Batty
I have installed the markdown plugin and I have the 'create a new markdown 
tiddler' which works fine. But when I create a link to a tiddler that 
doesn't exist, then click on it, and I get the "missing tiddler ... click 
to create", and then I click the edit button to create, it creates a wiki 
syntax tiddler.

How can I get it to default to creating markdown tiddlers?

[tw] Creating a dropdown to pass values to a template?

2016-09-27 Thread leeand00


Is it possible to use a sort here at the end to sort the whole thing?

[tag[tag3]][tag[tag1]][tag[tag2]][tag[tag5]][tag[tag4]][tag[tag6]][tag[tag8
]][tag[tag7]]+[tag[notherTag]]

I've tried it, but it doesn't seem to bring back the desired sort...is 
there a way to do it?

Thank you,

[tw] [TW5] Issue using the KeyboardWidget with the add tag text field

2016-09-27 Thread Novan Leon
*Preface:*

I'm fairly experienced with TWC and I'm just now beginning to fool around 
with TW5. TWC was fairly straightforward: If you wanted to modify the 
underlying UI and/or functionality of the wiki, you create a macro and use 
JavaScript together with the built-in TW functions like 
"createTiddlyButton" to build the elements you want to dynamically insert. 
In comparison, TW5's system of widgets, macros, variables, 
transclusion-heavy tiddlers, etc. was a bit overwhelming at first but I'm 
beginning to get a handle on it... or so I thought.

*Issue:*

I want to make it so I can press Enter to add a tag instead having to click 
the "Add" button every time. They KeyboardWidget 
 seemed built specifically 
for this purpose.

I edited *$:/core/ui/EditTemplate/tags* and surrounded the "add tag" 
$edit-text widget with my $keyboard widget like so:

<$keyboard message="tm-add-tag" param={{$:/temp/NewTagName}} key="enter">
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/temp/NewTagName" tag="input" default="" 
placeholder={{$:/language/EditTemplate/Tags/Add/Placeholder}} focusPopup=<
> class="tc-edit-texteditor 
tc-popup-handle"/>


The good news is, when I press Enter, it now adds whatever text is in the 
"add tag" field to the tag list. The bad news is, as I'm typing, after 
every keypress the "add tag" field loses focus, essentially making typing 
impossible.

This seems like a fairly simple use case but perhaps I'm missing something. 
Am I making a mistake or is this a known issues with KeyboardWidget 
?
 
Without visibility into the underlying JavaScript behind the widget itself, 
it's difficult to diagnose.

[tw] Re: Am I alone on mobile usage of TW?

2016-09-27 Thread Anton Aylward
Yes.
Before I got my tablet, and its not a tiny screen, it's all of 12", the 
screen is the size of an 8x11 piece of paper, I used TiddlyWiki a lot.  The 
convenience of the tablet, not being tied to the desk and office and the 
fluorescent lights and ill positioned desk is too great.  Bluetooth and 
lack of wires is wonderful.  I use my 5" phone for quite different things 
from my tablet.  Heck, its a phone and my tablet isn't!

I never managed to get TiddlyWiki working satisfactory on the tablet; 
that's a technical issues not a screen size issue.  It seems possible but 
is convoluted and as you say, bandwidth and storage as not as free and easy 
as with desktops.  Yes, on the one hand there are applications which drop 
functionality for mobile applications, but there are some vendors that have 
gone out of their way to focus on enhancing the use of mobile apps.  Moving 
MS-office to mobile vs the use of Google Tools is one example.  There are 
some good HOW-to examples of smaller screen copatibility.  CSS is your 
friend :-)  Wikipedia offers a good example.

I don't know about using 5" or smaller (phone) screens for things like 
TiddlyWiki or text input as office-like functions rather than TXTing.  I 
have a lot of apps on my 5" phone that are very useful but are only 
applicable to a small screen, some of them involving GPS for instance.  
Other things I can't imagine possible on a small screen like Photoshop.  I 
use a minimum 19" screen for that at my desk but I'd love one of those 
Cinerama wide screens where I could put two or three 'documents' up side by 
side, each the size of a piece of 8x11 paper, all better than 96dpi.  

So I'm discouraged and dispirited.  I keep up this subscription, read the 
occasional article, but I'm not using TiddlyWiki very much these days.

It is quite acceptable, but there are some small frictions that make the 
experience a bit rough. And that talking about raw tiddlywikis, but if you 
move to custom plugins and editions you will find different scenarios.

There are attempts to create mobile themes (in fact, I tried myself) , but

Personally I prefer the nokia n9: https://goo.gl/images/Bd3ko8
But if we talk about something more recent, maybe you want to take a look 
at pyra handled, it includes 4G connection and it is in fact a small 
computer.

That convergence has nothing to do with how information is displayed 
depending on the screen size. Usually we talk abou mobile friendly, but 
small screens and small windows also apply. The only thing that I can see 
related to the convergence is that the same application will run both on 
small and big screens, so it should be able to adapt.

[tw] Re: Am I alone on mobile usage of TW?

2016-09-27 Thread Raymond McDowell
For me, the advent of TW5 was and is a godsend. For 20 some years I 
searched and experimented with anything that could remotely meet my needs 
of desktop/mobile/laptop access, whether I was traveling in China, the 
Philippines or at home in Hong Kong where I wanted to be able to access and 
edit my body of work on the run or at my desk. For some time I used TW5 
with a cloud service so I could have my "stuff" whenever I wanted it. I was 
actually happy with my mobile experience. the menu was at the top of the 
screen, the text was easily scroll-able and links worked. I've had issues, 
and I've learned to work around them. 

Having said that, for the past couple of years I've resided in the 
hinterlands of the Philippines without a reliable internet connection. I'm 
still trying to figure out how to keep my wiki updated across several 
machines, including my phone and my tablet, as well as my laptop and 
desktop, but there's been no issue with viewing or editing my stuff. Maybe 
my needs are simple. I try to keep things as human readable as possible so 
there are lots of mechanisms I simply leave alone, and my experience on my 
mobile devices have remained quite acceptable to date.

Hi Danielo,

I think you are right. But that's just a matter of mobile friendly themes 
and time. ... It's a hell lot of work to create and support themes. 
Especially support is time consuming. So imo that's the reason, why nobody 
did or published them. ... yet. 

As some of you may know: I don't like popups. That's why I try to remove 
all of them, with something, that works for me. As a side effect this 
should be good for mobile too. 

On the other hand I love real keyboards and big screens, even on phones. 
(OT: I think the Nokia E90 
is
 
still superior to recent phones with on-screen keyboards.) So for me a 
tablet will probably never be an option.

I personally think, that future phones will converge into desktops 
 and 
back without any friction. Android and Windows have similar concepts, but 
I'm not interested in them, so I don't know links here. Apple has their own 
concept, which guaranties them maximum profit. 

There are only 2 points that are important for me: 

 - a good reading experience on mobile phones.
 - good editing experience with keyboard and / or monitor attached, on what 
ever device is able to handle that.

have fun!

You are right. But the only thing you can do there is switch to the desktop 
version, because the mobile version is completely useless. ... And the 
curious thing then is, that they are wasting 1.5cm of vertical space to 
display a f*?&%$ing button to switch back to the useless mobile version. 
That really sucks. 

For me the desktop version works just fine on my 5inch phone.

Some phones are low powered, but some others are pure beasts.

That vision is a bit limited. Limiting features of a product on a screen 
where they are literally unusable is not limiting the product, is limiting 
that product on that particular scenario. Those features would be available 
on larger screens.

Probably true

Valid point. But not being mobile first does not mean ignoring mobile 
totally.

Not, not even close to what I meant.

Again, I'm not referring to any mobile app. Just visit github.com, 
facebook.com or twitter.com from your mobile phone and you will see what I 
mean. Those are web pages that feel like native apps, but they are just web 
pages

You nailed it. Those are the things I think should be addressed.

Exactly. Maybe Jeremy didn't intended, but TW is actually a framework, not 
a library, not an app but a complete framework. Providing those facilities 
will make easier the lives of the developers that use the tiddlywiki 
framework. 

Maybe, more than creating mobile friendly menus, provide a generic way to 
define menus, that TW will display differently depending if you are on 
mobile or in desktop.

2016-09-27 Thread Thomas Elmiger
Hi

I support what c pa says. There are some pain points to optimise, sidebar 
accessibility on mobile would be my first priority. 
Like Danielo I read and write most often on my – really small – mobile screen 
in this forum and clicking on links to TW5 examples is often disappointing. 
On the other hand, like most developers, I dedicate most of my spare time to 
personal projects. I am mainly a humble user with some knowledge of HTML and 
CSS and had a hard time learning TW5 which I use in the browser on my laptop 
only. Keeping my data private and local is my main concern, so syncing between 
mobile and laptop via online sevices (or an own server) is out of scope. If 
time is left besides job – 110% or 44h/week –, commuting, sleep, family, some 
sport, social/charity activities and TW5 projects I try to be helpful here and 
publish my stuff others could use it as is or help to improve. 
Other Ideas I have for TW5 projects include server-client scenarios and I have 
some hope to use Danielo’s Couch(?) approach, if it can solve perceived issues 
like search until then. But again: We are talking about months or years until I 
could find time for this. I will reconsider platform choice at that time. 
It would be a pitty, @Danielo, if you left, I admire your efforts and 
engagement! 
Thaks for everything to everyone, I am sure you all do the best you can! 
Thomas
