an issue pop(s)up

[Stephan Hradek]

I'm wondering: what am I doing wrong?

Paste this into a new tiddler:

<$button popup="$:/SamplePopupState!!editmode">Pop me up!</$button>

<$reveal type="popup" stateTitle="$:/SamplePopupState" stateField="editmode">

<div class="tc-drop-down tc-popup-keep">

! This is the popup

And this is some text

</div>

</$reveal>

and you'll get

Internal JavaScript Error

Well, this is embarrassing. It is recommended that you restart TiddlyWiki by refreshing your browser

 

TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'this.wiki.getTiddler(this.stateTitle).getFieldString')

 

 I simply wanted the popup to have its state stored in a field of an existing tiddler.

In the popup I want to enter some data.

As you found out. It's not possible to define a field. It has to be a tiddler.

Hi Stephan

Welcome back!

I'm afraid that's a bug in v5.1.19 that's been fixed in the prerelease (see https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/3848). You can work around it by using a text reference for the reveal widget instead of separate title and field attributes.

Best wishes

Jeremy

Not quite, as the popup does not go away when clicking outside.

Hi Stephan,

the problem is that the buttons in tiddlywiki allow setting a popup in a field, but the popup mechanism expects the popup-coordinates being stored in a tiddler's text field

in your case the popup mechanism tries to delete the tiddler "$:/SamplePopupState!!editmode"




that's an edge-case which is not handled correctly ...




for you that means that you should avoid using the state reference (!!) for the popup


[Jeremy Ruston]

This should now be fixed in the prerelease, thanks to BurningTreeC’s PR.
