Hi,
I have been starting to use the GSD5 plugin. 

One thing I find is that it interferes with the built-in functions for folding and unfolding tiddlers. That is, they don't work.

Does anyone here remember that issue and what the fix for it is?

All the Best,
Calvino

It is often a design decision or oversight whether the content of a tool honors the fold tiddler toggle.
  • The items tagged $:/tags/ViewTemplate may or may not be toggled
  • Use `<<tag $:/tags/ViewTemplate>>` to see the tiddlers include, and open one which honors the fold toggle 
<$reveal type="nomatch" stateTitle=<<folded-state>> text="hide" tag="div" retain="yes" animate="yes">

Content here responds to the fold toggle

</$reveal>

If you wrap the contents of a view template addon with this it will exhibit the same behaviour.

Regards

Hi Tonnes,
Thanks for that explanation.

What I suspect is that the GSD5 plugin is intended to create a standalone system, since it outright replaces the core ViewTemplate stuff and has no reveals. EIther that, or it dates from earlier in the evolution of TW5 to a time there was no fold mechanism.

Now I'm trying to figure out how much work it might be to get it to play nicely with the core and with other plugins.
All the Best,
Calvino
