[tw5] TiddlerInfotab: ViewText to display text field of a shadow, system tiddler without having to open it in edit mode

[wimm]

Sometimes you just want to view the source text of a system or shadow tiddler withot the chance of accidently modifying the source when opening the tiddler.

To minimise the chance of accidental modifying, you can use the following new TiddlerInfoTab to look at the code in read only mode..

     ViewText will display the non-wikified read only contents of the text field of the current tiddler.

Import the attached .json file to create the new tab. (updated with ~)

One known issue : for javascript (.js) tiddlers the source is already displayed, the ViewText tab then is not usefull, when you select the tab the textfield will be display twice.

One tiny update: 

Apparently tabs now display camelcase captions as links (indepent of config setting autocamelcase to link switched on or off, is this a bug in the prerelease?).

So I changed the caption field of the tiddler from ViewText to ~ViewText.

This version works (tested) with TW 5.1.5 , TW 5.1.14-prerelease and now also with NoteSelf Mobile app by Danielo Rodríguez on android 4.4 3 chrome 54

The json file in OP is replaced.

Hi WimM,

 

Apparently tabs now display camelcase captions as links (indepent of config setting autocamelcase to link switched on or off, is this a bug in the prerelease?).

I'd say it smells like a bug, since standard tab buttons don't really provide the flexibility to have things like images rendered, afaik.

Best wishes,

Tobias.

The caption field is wikified, so as to allow for things like translation.

The tabs macro could be updated to set the variable tv-wikilinks to “no” for the scope of rendering the caption field. Or we could update the button widget to automatically set tv-wikilinks for its’ content.

Best wishes

Jeremy

Best wishes,

Tobias.

Possibly the latter. But maybe there is a usecase where we would want buttons with links inside.
Not sure what's supposed to happen in this case: both events?
...e.g. "scroll to tiddler" and perform click action(s)?

So, the safer place to fix the issue probably is modifying the tabs macro.
However, updating the button widget would cover that ground as well.

Not sure.

Best wishes,

Tobias.

For me having a link inside a button it's always a problem. I faced this before and Mario persuaded me from asking a change, can't remember how.

Hi Jeremy

If the caption field is wikified, shouldn't it still convert camel case words into links depending on the config setting

Setting the variable `tv-wikilinks` to “no” suppresses linking within that scope.

Thank you Tobias, Jeremy,

I'll use the ~ 

which is IMHO easier to maintain,
