Hi cmari, A long time ago I posted some feature requests where this was one of them [1]
Jeremy's answer was then: I'm not so sure about this one. We could introduce another field for it, but it makes the mechanism more complex, and I think that a list of tags where some are in black type and some are white type will look weird. I'm open to discussion; it's just a template change. I even posted a link to a color chart [2]: This is the ColorChart that was once at Eric Shulman's site, but I cannot find it anymore there. So I made a demo so you can see how it looks with black/white text. If it could be done automatic as implied by Jeremy's answer to Dave: I'd prefer to instead tackle the problem of ensuring that the tag pill text is visible regardless of the colour. I can live with that ;-) Cheers, Ton [1] https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/nsJT0bx1eZ0/qPI1yJfENg0J [2] file:///D:/Dropbox/Public/ColorChart.html On Sunday, March 16, 2014 10:06:26 PM UTC+1, cmari wrote: > > Hello, > In an effort to improve the readability of colored tag pills, I tweaked > TagTemplate and EditTemplate/Tags to allow for a "fontcolor" field in > addition to the "color" field. > But while I was searching for any other discussion of this question, I > came across this Q&A last November between Dave and Jeremy (in this thread: > https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!topic/tiddlywiki/69P2zrHEW2U): > > Question: > >> 4.
