The core's <<view>> macro only supports reference to tiddler *fields* in the current tiddler object. You cannot use it to display slice or section values, nor can it be used to show values from other tiddlers. To format and render data -- fields, slices, and/or sections -- from any tiddler (not just the current one), you can use: http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#WikifyPlugin With regard to the core <<tiddler>> macro, it doesn't support use of section/slice refererences with an "implied tiddler title". The tiddler reference must include a fully-qualified tiddler title, even for references to sections/slices in the current tiddler. Fortunately, http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#SectionLinksPlugin enhances the <<tiddler>> macro parameter handling so that section references that omit the tiddler title (e.g., <<tiddler ##section>>) are handled by using story.findContainingTiddler() to get the current tiddler title. Note that, at present, the SectionLinksPlugin-enhanced parameter syntax does not support implied titles for *slice* references (e.g., "::section"). However, this is relatively easy to add to the existing plugin code. I'll post a follow-up when an update is available. enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios ---------- Was this answer useful?
