Step 1: I'm thinking I could build an extension that would allow me to drag and drop tiddlers between buckets, something like <$drag-and-drop-container message="Swap-tags"> or perhaps <$drag-and-drop-container message="Classify-by-type"> <$list tag="" or type=""" /> <$list tag="dog" or type="dog /> <$list tag="cat" /> <$list tag="bird" /> </$drag-and-drop-container> For this I'd want to add an on-drop event to the event list, and set it up so developers could add new event actions based on the message as they are needed I'm guessing on how I'd do things because I haven't yet waded into your code structure Step 2: Since the tags or types would indicate a structure for the classified tiddlers, I'd want to add fields to the tiddler based on which bucket I had dropped them into so I'd want to add actions to the on-drop event to add fields to the tiddler to indicate the structure so <$on-drop message="add-field=field1" /> or something like that Then I could set up an edit template that responds to the types and fields so I could manage the structured portion of the information in structured fields and the unstructured portion of the information in the unstructured "text" Step 3: I want to be able to perform mass actions on my items so I'd create maybe a table of contents with check boxes next to each of the items so I could select the check boxes for each item on which I wish to perform the action and then click a button that would then execute some action on all the checked items <$toc message="with-checkboxes"> <$list /> <$button message="delete" /> <$button message="do-something-else-with-these" /> <$button message="save-list-as-new-tiddlywiki" /> </$toc> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
