Hi,

I have used Tiddlywiki for a while, but I'm still struggling so now and 
then to figure things out. I don't have much experience with programming, 
but I do love knowledge management and Tiddlywiki is the only tool that 
suits my needs.

*The problem is the following:*

I am using a list widget to list Tiddlers with the tag "Inbox" in a table 
like so: 

 

15/02/2020 - Sat February 15

Title of the Tiddler 

Text of the Tiddler

 

What I'd like to be able to do is cut the text of the tiddler displayed in 
the list after a certain amount of characters. In case an item in the list 
is really long, it would look like this:

 



15/02/2020 - Sat February 15

Title of a short Tiddler 

Text of a short tiddler

15/02/2020 - Sat February 15

Title of a long Tiddler

Text of a really long tiddler which is cut off after x amount of chara...

 
I googled around for quite a while, but I was probably using the wrong 
keywords. Is there any way I can easily achieve this? The code for the list 
that I have now is:

<table class="tableFormatter">
<$list filter="[all[shadows+tiddlers]!prefix[$:/]tag[Inbox]] 
 +[sort[created]]">
<tr>
<td><$view field="created" format="date" template="DD/0MM/YYYY - ddd MMM 
DD"/></td>
<td  valign="top"><$link to=<<currentTiddler>>><$view 
field='title'/></$link></td>
<td>{{!!text}}</td>
</tr>
</$list>
</table>

Thanks in advance!
