Field names look correct and I get the same result on your demo site.
I used <<fields2table "[tag[proj]]">> in a tiddler with a list field containing 'event url' and another tiddler with fields event and url, populated.
The table appears fine but clicking the edit pen twice empties the list field for me.
Anybody else with the same experience?
Working! Thanks very much Mat, it's very useful!
<<tag demo>>
Mat,Nice share. I have build something similar but more complex, I like this straightforward solution.I note that if we addnext to your demo table we can change the order of items with the tag pill.
<<tag demo>>
- If we had an equivalent to the tag macro that operated like a tag pill but to control the order of a named field (list by default) it would be very helpful
In my grander designs I am working to define fields such that they are handled differently according to read-only, view, edit and update modes for the whole wiki or individual tiddler.
Before that I used Dynamic Tables, which is very similar to your plugin, but yours is a bit faster.
Here is a fancy text snippet for fields2table with some counting stuff.
Feature request:* It is nice that you can change the order of the fields just by rearranging the field names. It would be superb if the first column could also be moved at will in this manner. My use case is my reading list. It has tittlers with title:bookTitle and genre:TheGenre. I would like to have the genre in the first collumn in a table of books (genre has no tiddler).
If so I already have a simple solution. I have done it before. So just ask. If not, if I am missing something ignore this offer.

Another idea would be to, in the list field, just write "genre title....". That gives you an extra title column (but the title is not a link.. and note that you must not edit the title there as it changes its identity!). Then, tweak the stylesheet to change the original (leftmost) title-links to instead appear as some small link icon to the book.
of course.. That is a simple solution. But is this best controlled in the style sheet? I have made this modification but in the $:/_TWaddle/fields2table tiddler, not the stylsheed. Is this bad practice??anyway I have made one edition with the link icon from TW as the link. This however looks a bit big to me so I also made an edition with an arrow as the link. however I dont understand why the first row display the title as a link, but the rest is not.
I recently stumbled onto another macro on one of your web sites. I was pleased at the time, but got distracted before I could really investigate it or even properly bookmark it. At this time, all I remember is that it was related to VARs and that it created another set of fields, above the "text" field. I have tried searching and failed. A Hint or link would be appreciated.
Hans, happy to hear you have use of my gizmos.
...
Thank you, Mat. That is indeed what I was looking for.
I think I can make good use of this in a couple of my Contexts. If that works out, I will post back to share the ideas.
