I am hoping that someone can shine some light on my issue as I have been
working at it for some hours now to no success.
The task is to create a tiddler storing in a field a string, for example,
ArtworkImages/BJ007.jpg, where the number is an incremental number and the
text comes from various tiddlers, eg. $:/TLS/imagefoldername, so it can be
altered as required..
My code is as follows
<code>
\define artworkurl() <<foldername>><<idcode>><<incremental>><<imagecode>>
\define uniqueid()<<idcode>><<incremental>>
<$set name=foldername value={{$:/TLS/imagefoldername}} >
<$set name=imagecode value={{$:/TLS/imagetypecode}} >
<$set name=newid value= <<uniqueid>> >
<$set name=theurl value=<<artworkurl>> >
<$set name=idcode value={{$:/TLS/idcode}} >
<$set name=incremental value={{$:/TLS/incremental}} >
''Artwork unique ID: <<newid>>''
-----
idcode <<idcode>>
incremental <<incremental>>
foldername <<foldername>>
imagecode <<imagecode>>
newid <<newid>>
theurl <<theurl>>

The problem is passing the values of artwork_url and artwork_id into the
new tiddler. The values stored are: artwork_id is <<idcode>><<incremental>>
and artwork_url is <<foldername>><<idcode>><<incremental>><<imagecode>>
instead of their values.
However, displaying the values of the variables for debugging purposes
gives:
idcode YB
incremental 20
foldername ArtworkImages/
imagecode .jpg
newid YB20
theurl ArtworkImages/YB20.jpg
These values are as they should be but they are not carried across into the
action-createtiddler widget.
I have tried passing the values through the local variables using for
example, artwork_url=<<theurl>> or through a macro call
artwork_url=<<artworkurl>> instead of trying to get the value from the
temporary tiddler artwork_url={{$:/TLS/artworkurl}} but nothing works.
What am I doing wrong?
