Hello Felix, thank you for your comments.
I just remembered how I overcome this previously: I put the macro invocation on a different tiddler. Then when I want to get the results, I just navigate to that tiddler. This case was a bit trickier because I have to change the macro invocation, but this was easy to fix using some macros and the set-field widget (the first time the nest macros behavior is useful!!) \define unique-a() <<getunique "$:/temp/col-a" "$:/temp/col-b">> \define unique-b() <<getunique "$:/temp/col-b" "$:/temp/col-a">> <$button>Get unique values on A <$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/status/compare-result" text=<<unique-a>>/> <$action-navigate $to="$:/status/compare-result" $scroll="true"/> </$button> <$button>Get unique values on B <$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/status/compare-result" text=<<unique-b>>/> <$action-navigate $to="$:/status/compare-result"/> </$button> <$edit-text tiddler="$:/temp/col-a" size=20 default="" minHeight="80px" placeholder="A - column" autoHeight="no"/> <$edit-text tiddler="$:/temp/col-b" size=20 default="" minHeight="50px" placeholder="B - column" autoHeight="no"/> But tiddlywiki goes very slow as soon as some thousand of values are written in any input. I'm not sure why does this happens but I think it is also related to the "refresh" mechanism. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
