[tw5] Re: Macro Help: Transcluding the name of the tiddler the macro was called from as a parameter
Joe,
I am not answering your question but possibly pointing you in another
direction.
TiddlyWiki comes with a set of Table Of Content Macros. TiddlyWiki itsself
is a great source of inspiration for building on top of tiddlywiki.
In fact you can possibly use the toc macro now.
The TOC macros use recursion. Basically you call a macro which calls
itself, using the list widget each time the list runs out it returns to the
calling macro (which is itself) and this is how the toc macros dig deep
into the tree created by tagging.
Have a search for the macros (start on tiddlywiki.com), or ask further
questions here.
Regards
Tony

It depends on what you're doing, and where the equivalent information of
"depth" is coming from. You might explain more about your set-up.
Instead of reveal, you might be able to use a listwidget
<$list filter="[...stuff I'm looking for
...count[]prefix[$level$]suffix[$level$]]"> WHEE

Thanks Mark! That does indeed work.
I'd also be interested to know if there's a way to take the depth field out
of the equation and use the level parameter instead, since I seem to keep
needing that kind of thing.

I don't believe you can use a dynamic default as you are attempting in your
example.
Instead, try:
\define test( level:3 base )
$level$, $base$
<$reveal type=gteq state="$base$!!depth" text=2>
WHEEE
\end
<$macrocall $name="test" level=4 base={{!!title}}/>

The question could be rephrased as "How do I use a Macro Parameter as the a
Reveal State?"
