Dave, Thanks for sharing this! I see you have set up an editor button for det, and I wonder if it could be "smarter" in connection with selected text ...
I'm thinking of a variant on "excise selected text into a new tiddler" that could take selected text, port it to a new tiddler (prompting for title, or defaulting to first line), and leave a corresponding details macro neatly in place of where the excised text is? This would be tremendously helpful in editing "overgrown" tiddlers (or paragraph sequences pasted in from elsewhere) and bringing a project closer to the ideal of tiddlers-as-smallest-useful-bits. For what it's worth, I'm with Saq in hoping to invoke it with <<det "Component Idea">> -- much better for readability, sharing with newbies, etc., and would hope for the editor button to work that way as well. I wish I had time to tinker with these things myself so that I could offer tribute in the form of useful work, rather than chiming in as a backseat driver! -Springer On Tuesday, July 13, 2021 at 12:08:39 AM UTC-4 David Gifford wrote: > Hi everyone > > I have been asking for help a few times, and you all were very helpful. > Here is the end result, shared as a silent video with notes in the > description. > > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uk7MSQjaiuo > > In a nutshell, it is a macro I called 'det' that creates a details element > slider + link (asterisk) based on the tiddler title.
