[TW5] Button template

[andrew harrison]

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could write a template for my format buttons where the highlighted word button would be what would change? 

[[$:/plugin/ajh/format/button]]:

\define lingo-base() $:/language/format/

 

<$button message="tm-button" tooltip=<<lingo hint##button>> aria-label=<<lingo caption##button>> class=<<tv-config-toolbar-class>>>

<$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/language/format/notify" $field="text" $value=<<lingo notice##button>>/>

<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-notify" $param="$:/language/format/notify"/>

<$list filter="[<tv-config-toolbar-icons>prefix[yes]]">

<span class="tc-format-small">

B</span>

</$list>

<$list filter="[<tv-config-toolbar-text>prefix[yes]]">

<span class="tc-btn-text">

<<lingo caption##button>>

</span>

</$list>

</$button>

Would it work to create a macro that could generate each button based on a parameter?

E.g.:

\define format(button)

<$button message="tm-button" tooltip=<<lingo hint##$button$>> aria-label=<<lingo caption##$button$>> class=<<tv-config-toolbar-class>>>

<$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/language/format/notify" $field="text" $value=<<lingo notice##$button$>>/>

<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-notify" $param="$:/language/format/notify"/>

<$list filter="[<tv-config-toolbar-icons>prefix[yes]]">

<span class="tc-format-small">

<span class="text-transform:capitalize;">$button$</span></span>

</$list>

<$list filter="[<tv-config-toolbar-text>prefix[yes]]">

<span class="tc-btn-text">

<<lingo caption##$button$>>

</span>

</$list>

</$button>

... so that you could display the button with a macrocall like <<format "button">>.

That's exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for your feedback.

Awesome!

(Did you get a chance to check out my tab source button solution in the other thread?  https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/UAHlzJrZB5c/1aAswfeaHAAJ )

[andrew harrison]

Um, well, I thought it was almost perfect. After I tested it a bit I still have a slight problem. The tooltip comes up as "{{$:/language/format/hint##bold}}" instead of "make the selected text bold" from the dictionary tiddler. Any more suggestions?

Hmmmm.  Is there a leading or trailing space in the dictionary tiddler causing problems?  Does the tooltip param have quotation marks that might be causing problems?

[andrew harrison]

No leading or trailing spaces. I can't use quotation marks if I want a lookup. It seems I can't use <<lingo>> for the tooltip or any defined macro. The only thing that seems to work is a transclusion dictionary lookup. I think I figured it out though. I still feel like something isn't quite right with the lingo thing. But since I still don't understand how lingo works I can't fully test it yet. Here is what I have now:

\define lingo-base() $:/language/format/

\define format(button)

<$button message="tm-$button$" tooltip={{$:/language/format/hint##$button$}} aria-label=<<lingo caption##$button$>> class=<<tv-config-toolbar-class>>>

<$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/language/format/notify" $field="text" $value=<<lingo notice##$button$>>/>

<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-notify" $param="$:/language/format/notify"/>

<$list filter="[<tv-config-toolbar-icons>prefix[yes]]">

<span class="tc-format-small">

<<lingo label##$button$>>

</span>

</$list>

<$list filter="[<tv-config-toolbar-text>prefix[yes]]">

<span class="tc-btn-text">

<<lingo caption##$button$>>

</span>

</$list>

</$button>

\end
