Having a field set to the "results of a filter", irrespective of whether or not there is a *[count[]]* filter? Also, looking at... http://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#ActionSetFieldWidget I am seeing... <$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/state/tab-1749438307" $field="text" $value="$:/core/ui/ControlPanel/Appearance"/> To be honest, those numbers right there are precisely why I don't trust the state-paradigm along. This looks too arbitrary to feel reliable and to cryptic to be readable. Best wishes, Tobias. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
