@Souk21 welcome to the group and thank you for sharing! I will take a detailed look later and will provide feedback, I too prefer keyboard based solutions later. On the technical side if you have specific questions, feel free to post a list. State in TW plugins is managed via tiddlers, usually $:/state/* tiddlers
Note that there is a pull request that will hopefully be merged for the next version of TW, that adds keyboard support to the search field and the tag picker. Might be some useful code and patterns to look at and learn from there. https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/4458 Demo: http://tag-picker-kb.tiddlyspot.com/ Regards, Saq On Wednesday, June 10, 2020 at 7:31:24 PM UTC+2, Souk21 wrote: > > Hello everyone! > > > I discovered TiddlyWiki a couple weeks ago, and I set myself to use it for > note taking. > I really enjoy the trip so far, it really is a interesting piece of > software. > The only thing missing for me is a proper way to search with the keyboard > only. > > There’s a shortcut to focus the search field, but unfortunately, you can’t > navigate the results with the arrows, and you can’t close the dropdown with > escape. > > > I looked around for a plugin, but I wasn’t able to find any that worked > for me. > So, in a tiddlywiki mindset, I decided to try and make my own. > I took a lot of inspiration from VSCode command palette. > By default you open it with Ctrl+P, but you can change the shortcut from > the tw settings > You can search tiddlers by text or with a filter expression, search tags, > list all tiddlers with a tag,... > If you type ‘>’ you enter the ‘command’ mode and you can select (or > search) from a list of commands. > You can access help if you type '?' > > > I tried to make it the more customizable I could, there’s still work but > it’s already quite customizable.
