@Tobias and @Daniel It is not that strictly defined and I woudn't want to specify something that blocks eventual improvements.
That said, yes I imagine it as a desktop thing. The on-hover thought did popup in my mind but I see a need to be able to stick it somehow, especially if the text is longer than the window. Also, I think a scroll for the text area would be better than having to scroll down the whole page - I mean, the idea is to not loose access to the ToC. A scroll together with the text frame edges as they appear in the mockup might be cluttered but the text frame edges are of course not necessary, it was mostly to convey the concept. There is also a question if the ToC entries are wider, ie long tiddler titles. Which should be on top, ToC entry or text? I welcome any thoughts on the matter. Maybe the ToC entry should wrap to make room for the text area? Or maybe the text should simply be on top because the ToC indentation is not very wide even for multiple levels so you could probably see the beginning of the (partially) hidden titles. An idea would be to somehow show the actual tiddler there, i.e a tiddler inside a tiddler to allow for editing (assuming a tiddler actually is necessary for editing?). No idea if that is doable at all. But the most important thing is to see the text, not edit it. <:-) On Thursday, November 13, 2014 5:29:03 PM UTC+1, Danielo Rodríguez wrote: > > Very cool concept. > > What if the content is larger than the screen?
