Looks like an elegant solution, Tones, that Toggle operator... If only i was able to run that latest TW version that enables it. Because of this conflict between TW v5.1.23 and the Stroll plugin (on which i rely), alas, i am having to stick w/ TW v5.1.22 until it's resolved.
Fortunately, as explained in a previous thread <https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/Btso8q3Okzo/m/yPnPP_7cBgAJ>, Zak has pointed me to a solution -i.e. "tm-remove-tag" - that works... Except "FieldMangler Widget" that is the message hander requires a button to make it work, which makes my current solution slightly less elegant (as evidenced by screenshot i've shared in that thread), but it serves my purposes for now. I do look forward to getting on TW v5.1.23, soon as Stroll plugin is updated, and will try out that Toggle operator as soon as this comes to pass. Thanks for the pointer, Tones! /walt On Tuesday, December 29, 2020 at 11:16:45 PM UTC TW Tones wrote: > Post script, > > I mean to suggest that a checkbox is not really the way to go here since > it typically toggles between existence and non existence or two values. > Where when using tags that replace another tag the new toggle or cycle is > more logical. > > Regards > Tones > > On Wednesday, 30 December 2020 at 10:14:23 UTC+11 TW Tones wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> In the new release there is a toggle or cycle operator see here >> https://tiddlywiki.com/#toggle%20Operator and the examples provided >> include a tag. >> >> or https://tiddlywiki.com/#cycle%20Operator and the first exmple >> >> Tones >> >> On Tuesday, 29 December 2020 at 20:36:00 UTC+11 ludwa6 wrote: >> >>> Following this excellent tutorial video by Francis Meetze about >>> "Tracking Tasks in TiddlyWiki" >>> <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzoMhKx0j8g>, i was easily able to get >>> the thing working as shown...
