Hey all, Re: Use of list field to maintain sort order -- Personally I find that somewhat annoying to maintain, as one has to constantly update the list field of the root (tag) tiddler, which becomes problematic when changing the names of tiddlers to be sorted. For that reason I have begun using field & nsort approach more frequently; also this allows the possibility of numbering your sorted tiddlers as though they were line numbers in old code (100, 110, 120, 130, etc.) allowing you to "fill in" (101, 111) later in case you need to insert tiddlers into a sequence.
Re: listing (in list field, I would imagine) a tiddler whose name contains a space: [[Name of Tiddler]] will work. Drag/Drop from recent list into list field works as well; be careful to insert a space between ]][[ characters (why is that required?) And you could use the same approach to ordering items in sub-sections of the TOC. Here is one way: [[TiddlerName]] (outline-order field value) * [[Outline TopLevel 1 (outline-order:100) ** [[Level 1.1]] (outline-order: 110) ** [[Level 1.2]] (outline-order: 120) ** [[Level 1.3]] (outline-order: 130) * [[Outline Level2 (outline-order 200) ** [[Level 2.1]] (outline-order: 210) ** [[Level 2.2]] (outline-order: 220) ** [[Level 2.3]] (outline-order: 230) This gets complicated for larger multi-level outlines: this would be a good usecase for the xlsx importer, or perhaps for a future word importer that reads outline levels from the style sheet :) //steve.
