Yeah, right. The new shadow is imported but it becomes passive because your overwrite still "covers" it. There is no good way around this but maybe some kind of pragmatic way to deal with it could be formulated, like "go through your overwrites when importing and compare them to the new shadows". Could potentially be difficult. If you think your overwrite may be of more general use I'd suggest bringing it up in the github discussion or post an issue requesting a "hook" (I understand this to be a kind of UI so you can manipulate something specific in some code spot). BTW, I just realized it would be desirable if updates would detect changes between the old and the new shadows. There are often no changes in specific shadow tids except perhaps their dates. That would be useful to know and would indicate if your overwrite should still work. Sorry for not giving the desired anwer. <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
