Hi Tony
Just to reply briefly to your summary
>
> To make the spell check preview show the top line
That looks like a problem with your CSS, did you not see that problem before
trying out the editor? Does it happen regardless of whether the editor is set
to a fixed height?
> For users in General (place the preview above or below the edit rather than

> Or how to do this with css
Try the following CSS:
html body.tc-body .tc-tiddler-frame .tc-tiddler-preview .tc-edit-texteditor {
width: 100%;
}
html body.tc-body .tc-tiddler-preview-preview {
float: none;
width: 100%;
}

You can disable CodeMirror by disabling the plugin.

Perhaps I’m misunderstanding, but an ordinary edit-text widget will not invoke
codemirror:
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/SiteTitle”/>
Best wishes
Jeremy.
