How to transclude tiddler field in macro call

[vpl]

Hi

I've developed a small macro in javascript (called TLFilter see below) and I want to pass it values stored into the tiddler fields like this

\define my-actions()

<$action-setfield $field="stampId"  $value=<<TLfilter {{!!window}} {{!!period}} "[tag[test-2]sort[date]]">> />

\end

<$button actions=<<my-actions>>>Click me!</$button>

When I call <<my-actions>> macro the text {{!!window}} and {{!!period}} is passed to it and unfortunately not the content of the window and period field of the current tiddler ... As if the window and period variables where not transcluded during the TLfilter call

How to make that running ... I struggle and cannot find a solution

Thanks in advance for your help

With regards

AFAIK, you can't pass values to a <<macro>> that way. You have to use the macrocall widget. Then, to get the result of that call into a single variable, you'll need the wikify widget.

I couldn't test, because I don't have your macro. In the following, I guessed that your macro parameters were w, p, and f. Change appropriately. Also, be sure to have a backup:

\define my-actions()

<$wikify name=myval text="""<$macrocall $name=TLfilter w={{!!window}} p={{!!period}} f='[tag[test-2]sort[date]]'/>""" >

<$action-setfield $field="stampId" $value=<<myval>> />

</$wikify>

\end
