Externally loaded images, loaded internally (Tiddlymap background images)

[Reece Shaw]

Hello all!

I am currently working with tiddlymap on a locally stored wiki where I wish to load an image externally and use said image as a background on tiddlymap. Both the image and the wiki are stored in the same folder. I followed the instructions on http://tiddlymap.org/ to use the _canonical_uri  field to load the locally stored image. The image displays in the tiddler just fine, but it doesn't display when set in the tiddlymap view. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction here. Screenshots attached.

The info on the tiddlymap site notes to store the image on the same domain but.. I have no domain to store the image, because both are stored on my computer and I'm just trying to keep the images out of my wiki to retain responsiveness. I am using Tiddlydesktop if that makes any difference.

Thanks,

-Reece

 I am also trying to use tiddlymap with a world building map!

I just imported the image directly, and I am a coding noob so I cant help you. However, if you've made any progress with your project and are comfortable sharing I would love to see because I am trying to do the same thing.

Maybe I could even make a "use tiddlywiki for worldbuilding or DnD" tutorial for people once I've figured this out. Right not I am stuck trying to figure out how to create a max bounds to my background image.

Have a nice day :)
