As you can see in the SideBar at http://zaphod2016.tiddlyspot.com/, I got my Background Selector created and functioning pretty darn well *(I'm so very happy! :) )* - But then I ran into a niggling little annoyance that I hope someone can help me to overcome.
Many of the movie screenshots that I want to use as backgrounds are from older, SD (Fullscreen, 1.33:1) films, and do not cover the entire screen. In the ControlPanel there is the setting for *Page background image size* which references the $:/themes/tiddlywiki/vanilla/settings/backgroundimagesize tiddler and gives it the value of either "*auto*", "*cover*" or "*contain*." 720p and 1080p, as well as *most* HDTV Widescreen screenshots look just fine with the setting of "*cover.*" Some of the old SD screenshots, however, need the "*contain*" setting in order to be displayed correctly *(or at least look 'better')*. What I need is a way to include that setting with each individual background image tiddler — I'm thinking in a field — and then read it in when that screenshot is selected, and pass it on to $:/themes/tiddlywiki/vanilla/settings/backgroundimagesize I have tried so many different ways of doing it, but none of them have worked - At present, I simply do not have enough knowledge of macros, transclusion, filter syntax and the like to accomplish this *(and I sometimes think I might never)* How could that simple action be achieved within my Background Selector code? <span style="display: block; text-align: center; font-size: 150%; font- weight: bold; color: #FF0000;">TITLE<br>Descriptive Title of Your Choosing :Þ</span> <hr> <$linkcatcher to="$:/themes/tiddlywiki/vanilla/settings/backgroundimage"> <div style="border: 2px solid silver; border-radius: 10px; height: 355px; overflow: auto;"> <$list filter="[tag[Background]sort[title]]"> <$macrocall $name="linkimg" tiddler=<<currentTiddler>> image=< <currentTiddler>> tooltip=<<currentTiddler>> width="115"/> </$list> </div> <hr> <$link to=""> <$button>Blank Background</$button> </$link> </$linkcatcher> Any help greatly appreciated :) --Zaphod -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
