JeRoen,
Thanks for Sharing back. There is a thread that perhaps Mario will update
in relation to focused tiddlers which may go further towards the
functionality your are after, or perhaps even better.
Using a Toc to access tiddlers open them in the story river but under this
proposed approach we get a Focused tiddler value we can use in a sidebar
tab. It would be trivial to make a button on the view toolbar that also
sets the focused tiddler on a click. As a result the focused tiddler would
be the last you navigated to from a TOC or that which you nominate from the
existing open ones. Further such a focus button could be transcluded in any
list of tiddlers {{||focusbuttontiddler}} to permit a click to focus.
A little background. Since there are multiple Sidebar items and they are
all displayed "continuously" the idea of currentTiddler in these is
somewhat misleading. The fact is a tiddler displayed in the side bar does
not have a currentTiddler value unless you create a list that filters and
generates the currentTiddler value.
Place this in a tiddler tagged $:/tags/AboveStory $:/tags/SideBar and
$:/tags/SideBarSegment
\define notAboveStory()
Not Tagged $:/tags/AboveStory<br>
Shows how to do/display more as a result of an emptyMessage,
by using a macro definition
\end
<h3>Test ~SideBar</h3>
Current Tiddler: "<<currentTiddler>>"<br>
Current Tab: "<<currentTab>>"<br>
<$list filter="[<currentTiddler>has[title]]" emptyMessage="No Current
Tiddler available" variable=result>
Displayed only in Story River
</$list>
<$list filter="[<currentTab>has[title]]" emptyMessage="No current Tab"
variable=result>
Displayed only in tabs
</$list>
<$tiddler tiddler="Test SideBar">
<$list filter="[tag[$:/tags/AboveStory]]" emptyMessage=<<notAboveStory>>
variable=result>
Displayed only When also tagged $:/tags/AboveStory
</$list>
</$tiddler>
to see what I mean
If you are building tiddlers for use in the side bar you can use the
existence of $:/tags/SideBar and $:/tags/SideBarSegment along with
testing <<currentTiddler>> and <<currentTab>>
Of note is if the tiddler is tagged $:/tags/AboveStory or another page
related location the currentTiddler will also not be available so testing
for the actual tag on the named tiddler may help differentiate those
tiddlers that could appear anywhere, but because you have no currentTiddler
use the tiddler command as above.
This should give you a lot to play with.
Regards
Tony
