I am a heavy streams user. It helps to organize my notes in a structured manner so that I can easily retrieve them when I need a quick reference. Given below are some of the features which I wish to see in streams in future. 1. Templates - This is my use case. I am a radiology doctor. So when I take notes about the imaging findings of a certain topic, it usually have specific pattern. I will give an example. Name of the topic will form the title of parent streams tiddler / node. Then there will be headings like Definitions, Pathology, X ray findings, Ultrasound , CT, MRI findings, treatment etc. which will be made into separate child nodes. Sometimes there will be sub headings under some of the headings - for example under MRI findings there may be sub headings like T1W, T2W sequences - these also will be separate child nodes which will be indented under the corresponding heading. These headings or sub headings name will be usually the first sentence or word in the corresponding child nodes. Now I have to manually do it for each topic ( I use text expander extensions of browsers to make it easy for me). I would like this to happen automatically. That is when I create a parent streams tiddler or node with the topic name as title and add a particular tag or field to it, the child nodes should be created automatically with name of each headings or sub headings as the first text in that particular child node. So that I just have to fill in the contents in each node. Is it possible to do like this? I saw the option called template for new node in the streams settings. But I could configure only the parent tiddler with that. Is it possible to configure child nodes along with the parent using this template feature? 2. As I said in the first point, in many of my streams trees, the first word or sentence in the child nodes will be usually the name of the headings or sub headings. Is there any way to incorporate this first word or sentence of the child nodes into the title of that particular child node in place of the timestamp. For example - <<parent>>/<<first word or sentence of child node>> 3. Ability to export a single streams tree in any of the available format. Currently I don’t know of a way to select a single parent streams tiddler with its entire child nodes and export them. I know only to use the filter [stream-type[default]] which will select all the streams tiddlers in my wiki. Am I missing something here? 4. When we use streams, our recents page will be over filled with the child nodes of each streams tree. Is there any way to hide the child nodes within the recents page. Or else create a separate recents page for streams in addition to the default one with only parent nodes as it’s contents. 5. Option to select either wiki text or markdown format in the config option of streams so that users who need it can make use of.
