So I've worked out a solution based on Dave Gifford's example[1] of
using the SelectWidget to set fields.
The dropdown menu only appears in View Mode of course, but changes made
show up in the fields in Draft Mode, so I guess it's doing what I need
it too. I'd still rather the changes could only be made in Draft Mode,
but this seems to work.
I now have the code below[1] to set the value field for 'probability',
and a similar one to set the value for 'severity'.
My next step is to place the code for each group of values in a separate
tiddler, so that I can reference them (transclude them?) into each
tiddler that I require values set for. I'm doing this so I can easily
change or update the values across multiple tiddlers.
Any hints or tips appreciated!
Cheers,
David.
[1]<$select field='probability'> <option><$action-setfield
probability/>1-rarely</option> <option><$action-setfield
probability/>2-unlikely</option> <option><$action-setfield
probability/>3-sometimes</option> <option><$action-setfield
probability/>4-likely</option> <option><$action-setfield
probability/>5-frequently</option> </$select>
