Thanks Jeremy for your responses. I was looking for theme tweaks in core/ui/controlpanel, and also generally, but glazed over the snowwhite tiddlers, assuming that was irrelevant. Silly me.
This brings up an additional question: can there be a separate search mechanism for searching shadow and system tiddlers? It can be tedious for those of us who don't know as much as you about the shadow tiddlers to hunt for things in that long list without being able to search them. Even if you think it is better to have as a plugin, at least give us a heads up if something could be worked up sometime soon to filter searches by title, text, tag, and shadow. Thanks for the ticket re: a tag-based location for the search window, too. Dave On Thursday, November 21, 2013 9:10:43 AM UTC-6, Jeremy Ruston wrote: > > Hi Dave > > 1.
