Hi, I really like the search mechanism of TW. It's very fast and simple.
When I begin to search, the reveal mechanism of TW hides the tabs and only displays the search results. <!-- Excerpt from https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/blob/master/core/ui/SideBarLists.tid --> <$reveal state="$:/temp/search" type="nomatch" text=""> <div class="tc-search-results"> <$set name="resultCount" value="""<$count filter="[!is[system]search{$:/temp/search}]"/>"""> {{$:/language/Search/Matches}} </$set> <$list filter="[!is[system]search{$:/temp/search}sort[title]limit[250]]" template="$:/core/ui/ListItemTemplate"/> </div> </$reveal> However, I developed a plugin that visualizes tiddlers and their relations as nodes on a canvas and if I start a search, I want the nodes on the canvas to be filtered. *In other words, I want to use an alternative way to present the results of the search* My Problem: I cannot enable my plugin to visualize the search results. The following modification would change that: <$reveal state="$:/temp/search" type="nomatch" text=""> <div class="tc-search-results"> <<tabs "[all[shadows+tiddlers]tag[$:/tags/searchVisualizer]!has[draft.of]]" "$:/core/ui/DefaultSearchVisualizer">> </div> </$reveal> with $:/core/ui/DefaultSearchVisualizer being: title: $:/core/ui/DefaultSearchVisualizer caption: Standard search <$set name="resultCount" value="""<$count filter="[!is[system]search{$:/temp/search}]"/>"""> {{$:/language/Search/Matches}} </$set> <$list filter="[!is[system]search{$:/temp/search}sort[title]limit[250]]" template="$:/core/ui/ListItemTemplate"/> Then anybody could create a tiddler and tag it with "$:/tags/searchVisualizer" and it is displayed as search result tab. People could create plugins to visualize search results in an alternative way (I for example display a graph with relations). Context search could also be included this way, as it is also just a different visualization method of search result. *A user could define in the config tiddler, which is his/hers favorite result visualizer and set it to the default.* This is similar to firefox quick search next to the address-bar where i can select multiple engines to render my search results.
