Damon, you solve this by making the state tiddlers title based on the current tiddler title. Here's the general idea:
\define state() state/footer/$(currentTiddler)$ <$button> <$action-setfield $tiddler=<<state>> text="xxx"/> x </$button> You might also want to check out the qualify macro but I don't think you need this here. <:-) On Wednesday, April 29, 2020 at 11:59:36 PM UTC+2, Damon Pritchett wrote: > > Hello all, > > I've been playing around for the last couple of days experimenting with > adding a viewTemplate with a tabbed interface as a footer to tiddlers > tagged with a certain tag.
