Hi Mat,
I looked at your demo and the Layout is exactly what I want for dialogues, very good to see it realized in TW...and good to see how relaxed this looks in the EditMode.

To fullfill the needs of a screenwritingprogramm we would need more classes: action (parenthetical) and shot.
For example action again should appear without indent.
For the readbility in editimode, it would be great if the class for action was invoked with a transclusion
like

{{action}}Description of the action....

The transclusion should contain a span class which invokes a specific style for the next element. For the convinience for the users, it would be good if no tag to close the style was necessary. ...at that point that we come back to those strange selectors an pseudo-classes. https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/selector.html#adjacent-selectors.
I still do not see how to get this working in TW.

Yours Jan

Jan, I made this demo <http://forjan.tiddlyspot.com/> for you.

Never mind the "surrounding tidbits", they're part of my TW template for fast dev. You only have to look at the three concerned tids.

    Hi Mat,
    Perhaps you are right.
    I want to create a class which makes the name of the person
    speaking in capital letters in the left. And i would like the
    dialogue-text following this name to appear indent.
    I thought I could use the adjacent sibling selector to make it
    indent without further formatting in the text.

    As a further difficulty, the span containing the role class will
    be transcluded into the tiddler... I do. Not know whether this
    changes anything...

    Thanks for helping
    Jan

        Hi Jan

        Forgive me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that you're mixing
        things up in a beginners kind of way? At least I can't quite
        make sense of it. May I propose that you instead describe
        exactly what you wish the end result to look like?

        <:-)

            Hello!
            I want to realize an editor for screenwriting within TW
            and during that
            process have come to a formatting/CSS question.
            The dialogue-text after the role shall be indent. Now my
            question is
            is the Text following a span a child or a sibling?

            .role{text-transform: uppercase;}
            .role > p{margin-left: 150px; font-style: italic;}

            It shall be used within this construction

            {{rolename}} Dialoguetext text......
                                     Text Text

            Where rolename is a transclude span with the class role...


            Thanks for help
            Jan
