Really sorry if my last post gave the impression of being too negative
(must be 'cos Englisch is only my second language). My intention has
rather been to make the best out of this situation by becoming as much
as possible creative myself. From my side there really wasn't any
negative undertone implyed, since I know out of my own difficulties
with earning my daily bread and shelter what that could become to
mean. Even that can lead and open up other interesting perspectives
and possibilties and certainly isn't solely bad.

And I'm really glad if you already now have hope it could work
somehow!

However, since I really have been showered with you exceptional
responsiveness and support a few years ago, and if I compared that to
the decreased freqency of your participation here at GoogleGroups
since already about 2 years (well before UnaMesa's difficulties) I got
the impression that it would be simply not realistic to place my hope
on your tireless service, as I was luck to experience in the good 'ole
times. Again, there wasn't any sort of desperate disapointment
underlying my last post at all, but trying to feel at ease with how it
is now (were I could of course been mistaken) and simply move ahead.

However, in this spirit here's an example TW with my very specific use
case of having a second display area in the MainMenu and the already
much talked about popup menu opening tiddlers with at least the same
ease as with the regular SideBarTabs, but within an alternative
display area and additional options:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/241006/Triptych_2.6.1.html#ExtendedPopupMenuExample

I did already warn that it looks terribly amatourish ;-) The popup
itself opens by clicking the small 'pick' item in the TopMenu. The
visible default tiddler just uses a transclusion for easier
demonstration.

It's main pane first of all contains a DeleteList limited to tiddlers
tagged 'fav' (shorthand for favorite), 'view' or 'edit' (for
displaying tiddlers either in view [limited height with a resize
handler], or with the help of TidIDEditorPlugin in edit mode within
the MainMenu). Below that a table with the 20 most recenty modified
tiddlers by using ForEachTiddlersPlugin and CycleTags script. Together
this already satisfies my very specific use-case most of the times.

The popup buttons 'select by tag' and 'by title' above the tables
fully covers these additional selecting options with DeleteList too.
While 'by date' and 'by size' only works with ForEachTiddler for those
additional but rarely needed selection options with a very slow
rendering speed (and their further limitation of ForEach and tag
toggling tools together in popups already described).

PS: Please note, this is still very experimental and in a flux of
further improvements, so if anyone - though only a remote possiblity -
uses some of it, one would always be in a better possition with
backups of the original TW first, and if anything would go wrong (for
example: accitentally deleting all tiddlers ;-)
