Thanks for your nod of support. I don't want to get in the way of providing ePub type stuff. Perhaps a new thread but I don't know how to start it. I'm thinking that TW is pretty useful as it is and could make some great dynamic textbooks or notebook where a basic accelerometer is all you

Hi Marc - and thanks for your input. It's great to see another format where TW can provide a solution as a dynamic (e)book. I hope I am reading this correctly - but the idea you have it to produce a collective TWebook - pristine -organised -well presented. distribute it and allow for each

I thought I'd chime in on this. I may be a renegade but I think TW5 can be much better than an ePub because of its ability for the user to make changes. Our church has an excellent but dated family activity book. It has lots of ideas with descriptions of each idea. Families that can't think of

Is needing separate templates really a big problem here? I haven't really tried so I don't know. But for text I think that you would just need to make 3 or 4 templates and use the correct one based on screen size. If you have more active content or images than you have other problems but you

I think that with what we have right now you could just split your text into different tiddlers for each section, where sections are either paragraphs or something longer, and have them display in order with a theme that doesn't show tiddler boundaries. It would be pretty simple to have

That’s the rendering that TiddlyWiki gives you when it is viewed with JavaScript disabled. It’s not clear why that would be happening. The padlet service cannot forcibly disable JavaScript while serving the file over http(s); the only alternative I can think of is that the service is stripping
