Hi Dave When trying to move the tag editor into the info panel I think you ran into the same problem as me:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=3SsSh_p_zno&t=5963 It's caused by a shortcoming in the popup handling. With respect to the comments about handling multiple tag fields, I'm increasingly interested in the idea of generalising "list of tiddlers" as a field type; the tags field would then just be an instance of that field type. So you'd be able to create many different fields each of the type "list of tiddlers". This idea also fits in nicely with the work I've been doing on D3 integration: in D3 the fundamental datatype is the list (or array). This would allow us to model a table as a list of lists, which would fit very naturally. A potential side effect of the change is that the ordering of the tags applied to a tiddler would be properly retained, allowing users to reorder tags to convey their relative importance. Does that make sense? Best wishes Jeremy On Tue, Jul 30, 2013 at 10:34 PM, David Gifford <[email protected]> wrote: > Awwww, it didn't work.
