Accidental Discovery
Something that works
Rather than use the icon field I created an additional one
menu-icon If this icon tiddler name is in {{ }}
The macro call icon="{{$menuname$!!menu-icon}}"
And the button $icon$
The Problem is it stops me using the default icon field and Color
(VALUE #ff8080) from the $menuname$ tiddler.
