Hahaaaa! Brilliant - it works!!! I made this demo/experiment: TWools <http://twools.tiddlyspot.com/>.
I modded the viewtemplate so that you can drop anywhere on a tiddler in view mode. I'm not sure that is a solid solution as it will probably interfere with other local dropwidgets (or are they nestable?). I honestly think this could be a new UI paradigm for wikitext - one that would drastically lower the threshold for beginners to use more advanced TW and serve as an intermediary step before going into macros. Of course, in order for such premade code to be useful we'd have to make it so that parameter values can be set at some point during or before or after the drag'n drop. The most natural interaction might be that when you click on the icon tro drag it, you're presented with a popup showing the parameter list where you fill in the values. And if you didn't fill it in there before drag'n dropping, then it appears as you drop.. where it might stay visible until filled in. Something like that. I hope to do some more experimenting but it'll probably have to wait until weekend. If you (BurningTreeC) or anyone wants to keep on pushnig this then of course do so. (Hm, now I've definitely hijacked poor BurningTreeC's thread! Sorry man. Getting carried away by your brilliant solution for this.) <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
