Refereeing to recent discussion on The Good and Bad of qualify: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/51XMzmLGxfQ/PLkfWWthBAAJ
We know many cases in creating User Interfaces (UI) needs some state tiddlers. I got used to call qualify for such cases, but with the recent discussion it seems qualify is designed for purposes one like to keep some states permanently and irrespective of current tiddler situation. Mat proposed a slugify operator <https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/3379#issuecomment-505042751>. Also the Mario unique ID plugin is a potential tool here My question is: Is there any other ways to create unique stateTiddler? I dont mean do this manually? There are situation, one needs permanent state tiddler to keep data. For example in Shiraz dynamic table I uses state tiddler to keep footer data or row styles. These are not temporary data and it is tedious to define unique state tiddler for every table! The current mechanism I use is qualify macro which is not good for all scenario. --Mohammad p.s: One KISS solution is to use a helper function which calls now macro with [UTC]YYYY0MM0DD0hh0mm0ssXXX format to create a unique title for the required state tiddler. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
