It seems like this is more of a request for someone to make an interface
for data tiddlers.
Here's a start:
\define value() {{Data##$(index)$}}
<$select tiddler="$:/index" default="item1">
<$list filter='[[Data]] +[indexes[]sort[]]'>
<option value=<<currentTiddler>>><$view field='title'/></option>
</$list>
</$select>
Index:
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/index" tag="input"/>
''Contents:''<br/>
<$transclude tiddler="Data" index={{$:/index}}/>
<$set name="index" value={{$:/index}}>
<$wikify name="data" text=<<value>>>
<$button>Edit (below)
<$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/WorkingData" $field="text" $value=<<data>>/>
</$button>
<p/>
''Data:''<br>
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/WorkingData" placeholder="Type text to put in
dictionary" />
</$wikify>
</$set>
<$button>
<$action-setfield $tiddler="Data" $index={{$:/index}} $value={{$:/
WorkingData}} />
Update values
</$button>
Create a data Tiddler called Data and populate it with a couple of items.
The items will appear in the drop down, sorted by index. Click on an item
and the text will appear below. If you want to edit the text, click on
"Edit". Edit the text, and then Click on "Update".
This could probably be more automated. But when I tried to make the edit
box automatically connect with the data dictionary, it kept losing focus.
This is a known issue when addressing fields in the current tiddler, but
the Data tiddler is not part of the current tiddler, so don't know what's
happening there. It could also probably be made smoother if I knew what
variables were available to the new "actions" clause as part of the select
widget. Unfortunately, no examples are presented.
Have fun,
Mark
