[tw] Re: [TW5] Experimental Help Panel
Hi Tobias Apologies for the late reply. I'm keen to get 5.1.8 released soon, and one of the hold-ups is that we need to refine the Cheatsheet tab of the help panel; I just lifted your original without making any changes to accommodate the tall and thin layout. I wondered if you might be able to help with revising it? Many thanks, Jeremy. On Mon, Mar 2, 2015 at 9:10 AM, Tobias Beer beertob...@gmail.com wrote: I very much welcome this. The cheatsheet could possibly be further optimized for use in a sidebar. I believe a global wiki, preview or demo macro would help to consistently show the wikitext and then the preview, e.g. something that renders... ``` ~WikiText ``` ~WikiText via... demo ~WikiText In the sidebar, it would possibly be better to have individual examples show line by line, no grouped stuff as on tb5 (multiple examples in one codeblock). There are some examples where it's more like... ``` wikitext ``` explanation Not sure if those better be avoided. The help plugin could perhaps come with some demo tiddlers for transclusion or macros.

Most of these offer some kind of freemium demo version that has recording time limits, watermarks, and options for output formats, effects, etc. that you can remove or unlock by paying for the full version. That should be enough for you to try them out to see if they fit your needs. Thanks Eric. Was kinda hoping for the TW of screenrecording.. dynamic, free(!), etc. If anyone has any this is THE one recommendation, please don't hesistate to mention it. With the coming help feature in 5.1.8 I think we have a chance to really make a difference in video documentation/help (not that clips would necessarily qualify to be on tw .com but anyway). :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

Interestingly, there is at least one JS library for doing screen capture: https://mgechev.github.io/jscapture/ So, one could imagine integrating the functionality into TW5 Best wishes Jeremy On Mon, Feb 23, 2015 at 11:31 AM, Mat matiasg...@gmail.com wrote: Most of these offer some kind of freemium demo version that has recording time limits, watermarks, and options for output formats, effects, etc. that you can remove or unlock by paying for the full version.

An underlying problem with documentation is that it is difficult to speak culture as opposed to speak a language. What I mean is, the optimal way for learning can differ extremely much between two individuals even if they speak the same language. If we had a way to produce documentation very easily, individuals could document in a way that appeals to their own peer groups. ...not to mention show off various things and also ask questions in video form. Flooding youtube with clips on TW wouldn't be too bad from a marketing point either ;-) Unfortunately, the JS screen capturing library you refer to states: JSCapture won't work in Chrome 37+ due to removal of the experimental desktop sharing API.

In deed a very good idea! In the hangout sidebar I was clever enought to ask for any recommendation for free recording screen+voice recording software... but I was stupid enough not to remember to note down the anwer so I now realize it is lost.

I really like it and it seems really straight forward. I can see people creating content to easily go into this help system. Thanks Jeremy for building this into the system.
