Apply type of editor?

[Mat]

(I think I saw someone else asking about setting a type for the editor, so this might be related:)

Alain Dutechs made the fantastic Edit-Comp Text plugin, i.e a plugin that triggers when you type in [[ and presents you with a dropdown list of available tiddler titles. In tiddler edit mode, mind you!

I wish to use this in EditTextWidget.

In the installation instructions to Alains plugin, he explains that one should:

"...in $:/ControlPanel -> Advanced -> Editor Type -> text/vnd.tiddlywiki you must chose comptext instead of text. "

i.e this says (I think?) that the default text type in TW5 should use the comptext editor rather than the standard text editor.

...but how do I set this to be valid also for the EditTextWidget?

It is apparently possibly to type blocks in WikiText, but my primitive attempts to do so for the EditTextWidget fail. Basically I tried to surround the EditTextWidget with $$$comptext and I've tried using the type attribute in the EdiTextWidget but I suspect that refers to something completely different.

Any help on this would be very much appreciated!!!!!

Thank you!

Hi Mat,

take a look at the EditWidget.

Best wishes,

Tobias.

Tobias - thank you but I already read through that carefully and tried various stuff without success.

Here is a test demo to illustrate the point. (if needed, the password is "password")

My full case is thus to make comptext work in the SideEditor.

Your help is really appreciated!!!

Hi Mat,

Works fine for me.

All you need to do is use $edit instead of $edit-text in your sideeditor macro, e.g.:

<$edit tiddler="""$tid$""" class="sideeditor" />

Best wishes,

Tobias.

Ahaaa - change widget all together!

Yes that does work! (even if it removes the pretty rich editor toolbar).

Big thanks Tobias!

Hi,
Alain Dutechs Completition-plugin is a great feature!
For example to use TW as a tool for screenwriting, this would be of vital importance.
It is a pitty, that it removes the Edit-bar. Would it be possible to splice this into the normal editor?

best wishes Jan
