Hi Neil > The documentation for ActionWidgets on tiddlywiki.com describes the <$button> widget as an example of a widget that can trigger an action widget. Am I right in thinking that currently it is the only way to trigger an action?
That's correct, only the button widget triggers action widgets at the moment. > how hard would it be to add this feature to the <$select> widget (for someone with no experience in modifying widgets, but with a can-do attitude)? It would be fairly straightforward. In the handleChangeEvent handler of the select widget we need to call self.invokeActions(event). There are a few other widgets that should be enabled, too: link, checkbox, radio and maybe keyboard, edit-*, dropzone. Best wishes Jeremy.
