Hi Matabele,
Your approach is making me optimistic that TW5 can be functional as well as
merely fun for me, so I'm making an effort to give something back - but
please ignore this if it doesn't fit with your ideas!
1. (This is a really minor point). At the bottom of the tiddler
$:/_leftmenu, in this line:
<<tabs "[!has[draft.of]tag[$:/tags/leftmenu]sort[title]]" "$:/_leftmenu 1"
"$:/state/tab1">>
I think that $:/_leftmenu 1 may be a holdover from a previous version and
should be updated? (On the other hand, it's very possible I don't
understand the tabs widget. I didn't think I saw any difference when I
changed this, so maybe it's no big deal).
2. My minor idea: I'm always tweaking tiddlers, which meant that using
"modified" as the basis for sorting contexts, days, and months wasn't
working very well for me. To affect sort order, I did the following:
a. (this is the tedious part): In each context, day, and month tiddler, I
added a field (I called it "gtid-order") and inserted the appropriate
values for chronological sorting (01 for Jan, 02 for Feb, etc.).
b. In the following places, I change the sorting filter to
[sort[gtid-order]]:
- $:/_tagbar
- the macro definition \define tagPill(tag) in $:/_leftmenu
- the macro definition \define editTags(type) in $:/_edit-tags
c. Part "b" took care of sorting on the leftmenu, but I still wanted
day/month tags to be displayed chronologically in tiddlers and
transclusions. For that, I took advantage of your color definition. In
$:/_display-panel I deleted this line
<$list
filter="[is[current]tags[]sort[title]]"><$link>{{!!title||$:/_showtag}}</$link></$list>
and replaced it with:
<$list
filter="[all[current]tags[]sort[title]]-[field:color[#89C6AF]]"><$link>{{!!title||$:/_showtag}}</$link></$list><$list
filter="[all[current]tags[]has[gtid-order]field:color[#89C6AF]sort[gtd-order]]">
<$link>{{!!title||$:/_showtag}}</$link></$list>
d. To really control sorting order, it's also possible to change
$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/tags, replacing the shadow contents with:
<div class="tw-tags-wrapper"><$list
filter="[all[current]tags[]sort[title]]-[field:color[#89C6AF]]"
template="$:/core/ui/TagTemplate" storyview="pop"/><$list
filter="[all[current]tags[]field:color[#89C6AF]sort[gtid-order]]"
template="$:/core/ui/TagTemplate" storyview="pop"/></div>
Thanks again for this great resource!
