Hi all,
Total TW/TW5 newbie here, slowly learning and tweaking. I've read quite a
few posts in this group, and from what I can tell you all are a very
helpful and newbie-friendly bunch, so I'm hoping someone may have some
pointers for me. :)
I'd like to create a macro similar to the slider-macro, where a reader can
click a button/link and have additional text (pulled from another tiddler
via transclude) revealed. The catch is, I'd like to define where in the
containing tiddler that text should appear. For example:
(title) Containing tiddler
This is a paragraph in the containing tiddler that contains the _link_ to
reveal the child tiddler. This is some more text to fill up the paragraph.
> This is where I want the child tiddler to appear.
This is a second paragraph in the containing tiddler.
I currently have it working without custom macros as follows:
This is a paragraph in the containing tiddler that contains the
<$reveal type="nomatch" state="$:/revealstate" text="show">
<$button set="$:/SampleRevealState2" setTo="show" class="btn-invisible
btn-link">link</$button>
</$reveal><$reveal type="match" state="$:/revealstate" text="show">
<$button set="$:/SampleRevealState2" setTo="hide" class="btn-invisible
btn-link">link</$button></$reveal> to reveal the child tiddler. This is
some more text to fill up the paragraph.
<$reveal type="nomatch" state="$:/revealstate" text="show">
</$reveal>
<$reveal type="match" state="$:/revealstate" text="show">
{{child tiddler}}
</$reveal>
This is a second paragraph in the containing tiddler.
Ideally, there'd be a way to write a macro to accomplish the same, perhaps
with syntax similar to the following:
This is a paragraph in the containing tiddler that contains the <<revealmacro
"link">> to reveal the child tiddler. This is some more text to fill up the
paragraph.
<<revealmacro "{{child tiddler}}">>
This is a second paragraph in the containing tiddler.
Unfortunately, I'm computer-literate enough to cut, paste, and sometimes
tweak... but I'm fairly clueless as to how writing a new macro would work.
Any ideas? Thanks so much in advance!
