And back to the topic: I can understand the move of these two functions (closeall and permaview) to the backstagebar from a design point. (also have been messing with these)...but I think they should not belong to a backstage that is (or can be) hidden.
Some thoughts about what might be distracting for readers and content: The sidebar The backstage The toolbar (function "view"....reader is already "viewing") Multiple tiddlers v.s single page (close others and closeall are related here) How I use backstage: Importing (on space: including spaces, users and switching spaces) Plugin management (but mostly via tag systemConfig) Sync How I use closeall (mostly closeothers from the toolbar ) and permaview: Open some tiddlers Rearrange these so my story is ordered as desired (with the RearrangeTiddlersPlugin) (bookmarklet mostly) Hit permaview Copy the link from the address bar Paste somewhere (groups, mail etc.) What I would like to see is that these functions are not in the backstage....(I saw the last dev where the icons where placed on the right side of backstage).. ....but as a small panel (same place ...right-top) on a semi transparent background. So it is always visible (with and without backstage) and sticky to the top when scrolling down. For the viewer/reader: When in singlepage mode the closeall function seems confusing... so I suggest only permaview in such case However...the search-function does not work single-page-ish because of function "openall". !!The permaview should pop up the created link someway and a "copy to clipboard" function/button must be presented... For the writer: newtiddler closeall permaview (and all the other functions in tw .... savechanges etc.) ...just thinking loud....
