Ciao Mark S & RichardWS I want to both thank both of you, report back, and seek a bit more help.
After trail and error I found Mark's version below the most pertinent to my needs. On reflection, I realised its better as a stand alone tool for occasional use, rather than embedded via an icon on all Tiddlers. It works well. But I want to, ideally, upgrade the filter to have an input field so I'd enter the Title of the Tiddler I need a snapshot of, so I don't have to manually edit the macro everytime I use it. How do I do that? Is it difficult? Would the recursion problem come back? Best wishes Josiah Mark S. wrote: > > Hmm...
