Not edit SVG tiddlers as text

[p.ke...@everteam.com]

Hello,

I know that Tiddlywiki cant directly edit SVG tiddler like BMP images, but how to prevent Tiddlywiki to display the SVG code as text when editing ?

I have big SVG images, and adding fields or tags to these is painful as the text of the SVG file is displayed when editing ... and it's a quite long !

Thank you for any hits ...

(BTW great tool !)

erm ... because SVG IS text?

Would a solution be to see fields at the TOP not after a long scroll to the bottom? Not sure if its possible. It might be. Or a jump to "go to end?" using keys? That seems easy.

Hi Philippe

One quick solution might be to add a duplicate field editing section to the edit template immediately above the body:

1. Create a new tiddler called $:/TopEditFields

2. Add the tag: $:/tags/EditTemplate

3. Add the text: <$transclude tiddler="$:/core/ui/EditTemplate/fields" mode="block"/>

4. Add a “list-before” field with the value $:/core/ui/EditTemplate/body

5. Click the tick to finish editing the tiddler

Best wishes

Jeremy

Hello,

Thank you for this quick answser, I'll try :-) 

I would have imagine something more simple ... not displaying the code of SVG when editing, but display only the image.

I do not know Tiddly internal code, perharps it's possible to add "if (content-type == 'svg')" somewhere ...

A feature missing from the SVG button suite is the tiddler height adjustment. But if you open a regular tiddler, you can set the height of the edit panel to something small (say 50 pixels) , and it will be applied to the SVG editor panel. Then you don't have to have the entire ginormous SVG contents displayed.

The feature I want is to be able to set tags without opening a tiddler.

Hi Mark,

The feature I want is to be able to set tags without opening a tiddler.

Have a look at http://tw5custom.tiddlyspot.com/#Toggle%20button%20example

Click the right button (in a tiddler or in the sidebar) labeled 'Tagging in view mode'.

Cheers,

Ton
