Springer, There is two points here to note 1. If the table is sorted using tiddler name this may cause by adding a new row you may loose focus as new table entry causes a dynamic sort (so pay attention to this) 2. The clone feature of core navigate to new tiddler, so you need to have your own clone button (e.g. create a new tiddler but do not navigate to it.
You have your own clone button you have to use *action-createtiddler* See https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#ActionCreateTiddlerWidget The *action-createtiddler* widget is an action widget <https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#ActionWidgets> that creates new tiddlers. ActionWidgets <https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#ActionWidgets> are used within triggering widgets such as the ButtonWidget <https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#ButtonWidget>. There are several differences from the tm-new-tiddler message <https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#WidgetMessage%3A%20tm-new-tiddler>: - The new tiddler is not automatically displayed in the story river <https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#StoryRiver> - The title of the new tiddler is made available for subsequent operations Example: got to create a Test tiddler name: Test with few tags and fields and content Then create another tiddler with the below code \define mybase() Test \define testCreate() <$action-createtiddler $basetitle=<<mybase>> $template=<<mybase>> /> \end <$button actions=<<testCreate>> >{{$:/core/images/clone-button}} </$button> Click the clone button several times and see the Recent tab to see the new cloned tiddlers NO navigation to them no opening in story river. Now use this code in the template I sent you instead <<mybase>> use <<currentRecord>> Cheers Mohammad On Thursday, December 3, 2020 at 4:03:28 AM UTC+3:30 springer wrote: > Mohammad, > > What I imagined was the ability to create a duplicate tiddler "here" > without *opening* it, so that editing focus remains on the dynamic table. > It would have the feel of "adding a row to the spreadsheet".
