Aha! Thanks for that. Solved.

Right, that makes sense. I was just following the method I was taught in
the *{{DesignWrite}}* course, when creating ViewTemplates. In this
particular instance I specifically wanted the template to be applied to
*every* tiddler being viewed, so I thought I needed to be explicit about
that in the ViewTemplate. I wasn't aware that it is the default action, as
you explain here, so thanks for that.
P.S. I'm looking into the combobox problem you reported (how to set a
> value other than the selected tiddler title).

Awesome, thanks, that would be really helpful with restricting the results
of one combobox by the selection of another. Looking forward to getting
that part going.
Hegart.
