Hi guys

A stupid question but I don't understand what the rational behind this ...

When I create a basic tiddler with this code the "todel" field is set (even not created)

I've tried to specify the $tiddler as <<currentTiddler>> but that does not work ..

Thanks very much for any help ..

Regards

\define macro_init()

Hello guy

<$action-setfield $tiddler=<<currentTiddler>> $field="todel" $value="init_value"/>

\end

<<macro_init>>

Action widgets are only invoked when triggered by triggering widgets such as the Button Widget. That is, it takes user interaction to make changes to tiddlers.
