Representing the whole page as a tiddler is an interesting idea, I'll have to try it out and think over the implications. Is there a standalone demo for that plugin? One interesting issues is that it still leaves the issue of resetting CSS and indeed, might make the reset effort slightly more work as more specific rules apply to the tiddler in addition to the overall document. > Combined with SinglePageModePlugin, the above theme lets you create a > complete presentation that looks entirely unlike a TW document. > >> Cecily is one such effort, although I don't think it uses the theme >> mechanism. > > http://www.TiddlyTools.com/quickstart/moveable.html > uses two plugins (MoveablePanelPlugin and PanelManagerPlugin) to > provide a Cecily-like 'windowed' display (without the 'zooming' > ability) defined by custom templates and stylesheets applied on top of > a standard TW document. > > Although it's not set up for theme switching, you can use the 'dock > all panels' command from the PanelManager popup menu to return all > elements to their default locations and appearances (while retaining > their 'moveability'). > > Of course, because the moveable.html layout is based on templates/ > stylesheets, it should be a very simple matter to add theme switching > to the mix (using SwitchThemePlugin), allowing for multiple > alternatives, including the standard TW layout. Thanks Eric - Cecily like panning (and zooming) is another interesting option for representing the flip between a custom UI and a standard tiddlywiki. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
