@Jeremy Another valuable tool type would be a kind of fold/unfold, possibly using the revealwidget and similar to Erics old NestedSliders <http://tiddlytools.com/#NestedSlidersPluginInfo> plugin (an absolute favourite of mine in TWC); I.e select a text portion and click a text editor tool to have the selection surrounded with the necessary reveal mechanism. The resulting view mode button and the content text could be of different kinds:
* region type fold/unfold like in VisualStudio, i.e equivalent to the ⊞ and ⊟ there (squared plus and squared minus characters). * if label provided then something like [label >] * inline reveals (example <http://twaddle.tiddlyspot.com/#Subtle%20buttons%20and%20inline%20revealed%20content> ) * popup reveals Some(!) of these might even be suitable as an option in the Excision tool rather than as a separate tool. IMO to hide/reveal parts in content is very powerful concept for text (hypertext?) - i.e for conveying a message with text in the most efficient way. It lets you design a text that turns to *readers of different levels* in a much(!) more elegant way than common hyperlinking does; instead of jumping away from the text for more in-depth, it lets you access depth in place. (One could even imagine a text where a reader fills in at what level he wants the text - "summary", "overview", "in-depth but with highlighted basic concepts"... - and this sets the depth for the reveals. Or the system stores depth level from previous use and uses this as default.) Hide/reveal is IMO also generally underused in hypertext, probably because there is no standard html construct for it. In TW we do have the revealwidget but this is IMO much to complex to apply - compare it to the simplicity in adding a link, or a transclusion. @Jeremy I might have missed it before or there is a new tool to the right of the Redo button; it seems to be something to insert/control the vertical distance between two sections (great idea). I don't get it to work though (FF nor Chrome, win10) and the popup looks a bit rough with very airy squares stating a pixel number. On the matter of including the Rich text editor in core; I think it should be in standard distro (as expected by newcomers!) but maybe now is a good time to introduce a more advanced edition without pretty stuff.
