Statusstable

This is a demo to show how live note can be implemented using Tiddlywiki.

By livenote, it means just click to create a new tiddler and start writing no edit mode, no save tiddler required.

How to use

From page controls click on the 27 Create new livenote. A new livenote will be created and TW will navigate to it.

Note: The button uses a macro to generate new title with sequence number. The macro also prevents any overwritting previous tiddlers, i.e if some tiddlers with lower sequence number are deleted, the first free sequence number is selected.

How it works

• A new livenote is created by click on the 27 from page controls on the right side bar.
• A new livenote automatically comes under focus
• A livenote actually displays a textarea (using a view template) connected to a tiddler. This tiddler has a name like $:/livenote/data/tidname, so every livenote uses two tiddlers one tagged with livenote and one prefixed with $:/livenote/data/
• You can take note without going to edit mode and then save the tiddler
• All livenote content tiddler can be found under sidebar tab Livenote Content

Note

Once a livenote is created, it has a 27 Create new livenote on the right side, so one can simply create new livenote by using this button.

Warning: If you delete a livenote, dont forget to delete its content tiddler accessed from Livenote Content tab on the right sidebar.

Install Livenote

To have the livenote tool working in your own wiki, simply drag and drop below tiddlers into your wiki.

1. $:/kookma/livenote/button/create-new-note
2. $:/kookma/livenote/macros/livenote
3. $:/kookma/livenote/macros/newTitle
4. $:/kookma/livenote/stylesheets/button
5. $:/kookma/livenote/stylesheets/paper
6. $:/kookma/livenote/template/viewtemplate

Hi Mohammad,

This looks really nice and useful.

Once you've created a note, what's the method to then save it as a normal tiddler?

Regards

Jon

[Mohammad]

Jon,

 It is directly saved into $:/livenote/data/<tidname> where <tidname> is the name of note you see

Look at the sidebar tab "Livenote Content"

--Mohammad

[Jon]

So, I'd edit $:/livenote/data/2019.10.27-001 and change the title?

Regards

Jon

[Mohammad]

No need!
 You have your note and can edit it live!

TW will automatically save it in the content tiddler!

For your new note just click the Create new livenote!

Everything will be done in the background!

If you have a single file wiki, don't forget to save your wiki time by time.

[Jon]

Ah yes, but if I want use the livenote to create some initial thoughts which I then want to save as a standard tiddler with appropriate tags etc, I would then need to rename the whole $:/livenote/data/2019.10.27-001 filename or am I missing something?

Also, is it possible for the cursor to go into the new note after pressing the 'create new livenote' icon?

Regards

Jon

That is true!

It will bring the new tiddler under focus! but I don t know how to put cursor in the text area!

[Jon]

OK, thanks Mohammad - it's another great tool!

Hi Mohammad,

I tried to edit tiddler $:/kookma/livenote/macros/livenote like this:

\define livenote(tidName) <div class="paper"> <div class="paper-content"> <$edit-text tiddler="$:/livenote/data/$tidName$" field="text" placeholder="Start writing ..." default="" class="note" tag="textarea" focus="yes"/> </div> </div> \end

it seems already to write now.

Birthe

[Jon]

Yes, that works Birthe - makes it even better.

Regards

Jon

[Mohammad]

Many thanks Birthe!

Also thank you to correcting typo :-)

I revised the code as you sent!

Cheers

Mohammad

Hello,

I drag and drop tiddlers into my wiki but I haven't the "Livenote Content" in the sidebar.

[Birthe C]

I guess you did not get Livenote Content Tiddlers http://livenote.tiddlyspot.com/#Livenote%20Content%20Tiddlers
