Ok.... here's my ComboBox macro.... (note: this is NOT officially published yet, and is subject to change without regard to backward-compatibility. http://tiddlytools.github.io/InsideTW/empty.html#TiddlyTools%2FMacros%2Fcombobox and here's some (preliminary) documentation: http://tiddlytools.github.io/InsideTW/empty.html#TiddlyTools%2FMacros%2Fcombobox%2Finfo The combo box appears as a basic text input field, except that when you mouse over it, a down arrow button appears, allowing you to display a list of items to select from (using a filter you specify as a macro parameter). Depending upon optional parameters, you can have the list also appear as soon as you begin to type into the input field, and also have the list progressively filtered to only items that 'match' the current input value. In addition to the basic edit/list combination, the macro also permits you to specify an "okaction" parameter (see examples) that performs action(s) based on the contents of the input field. When an okaction is provided, mousing over the input field shows ok and cancel buttons in addition to the down arrow button. enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios InsideTiddlyWiki: The Missing Manuals Note: the URLs above (as well as the URLs contained in the documentation itself) are not the final location for these tiddlers, and *WILL* change when published (hopefully very soon). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
