Amerus,

If you are using a multi-screen laptop/desktop the open in new window 
button does display the content of a tiddler, but only the body part. I 
have made two new open in new window buttons, just in a beta state now that 
I have attached that may be another approach to the functionality you are 
after, drop these on tiddlywiki.com to see how it works.

Regards
Tony
