118 was Kevin's TW! - Don't know what TagRef().. means? - I don't use such a tag. 6000 nodes maybe, but actual tiddlers are less then a thousand. I guess your different number comes from nodes being created in each category: dates, tiddlers and tags. Since I rarely tag a tiddler only once, under this category even multiple times. The XML is from an updated version of the following TiddlyWiki, with some updates to it (reduced by 500 tiddlers): http://change.tiddlyspot.com/download (because of its size better to download first) > At this rate you are probably exceeding the limits of what Java can load > into the browser.

It starts with only 4 branches (thanks to TiddlyWikie's young age ;-), goes off in 12 further branches each year, and than there is a limited number of days each month. Such a structure makes it easy to know from the beginning in which direction to go. With tiddler's category you don't see their names unless you click somewhere in the periphery, then you can read a dozens of them and if the one you wanted isn't there you're only left to center the graph and try your luck somewhere else in the periphery again. This category only helps to find your way in a TW of maybe 50, maybe 100 tiddlers at the most. Like it does with shadowed tiddlers. Tags category therefore should be the way to go. However, again you can't see the actual tag labels unless you click in the periphery and might get lost just as with tiddlers again. (in comparison, if one uses a TagCloud one instantly sees all tag labels and with only one click one can see all tiddlers of that tag in a popup). Too bad the modifier category - the one I actually wanted for my comprehensive collection of themes from so many sources - is the one I still didn't got working. > > What would be needed is an option to set a specified tag as the home > note, and only include tags which are tagged with this tag and the > tiddlers tagged by them. Similar as for example TagsTreePlugin does: > http://visualtw.ouvaton.org/VisualTW.html#TagsTreePlugin ... with a structure like the date category - but by being able to indicate the tag for the home node. Which then connects to those tags it tags, and so on to how many levels one would like - with the respective tiddlers branching off - is the only way and category I could think of to make good use of hypergraph in a TiddlyWiki with more than a hundred tiddlers and as a tiddler's sitemap. Beside, of course, creating wonderful mind maps manually. By the way, I haven't found a way yet to connect one group of nodes with an other group - other than from the center node. Is there a way to do this in hypergraph?
