Nested macro call not working

[Danielo Rodríguez]

This alwasy gets hard for me.

I'm trying to create new tiddlers, with consecutive names without opening them for editing. To do so I'm using the setfield widget.

Here is my approach that is not working. It only renders the button with the widget declaration as text.

Any idea?

\define colnumber()

<$count filter="[tag[Column]]"/>

\end

\define colname(number)

<$button>+

<$action-setfield $tiddler="column$number$" tags="Column"/>

</$button>

\end 

<$macrocall $name="colname" number=<<colnumber>>/>

<$list filter="[tag[Column]]">

<$edit-text tiddler={{!!title}}/>

</$list>

Hi Danielo

I'm afraid that the issue is one that's come up before: transcluded macro invocations used as an attribute of a widget are not wikified before use; the attribute ends up with the raw text of the macro (after the textual substitutions). There's no workaround at the moment.

There was a recent discussion on GitHub about possible fixes, but I can't find it right now - Felix, I think you were involved in that discussion?

Best wishes

Jeremy.

Hi Jeremy,

The github search is really bad. But here it is the topic you were referring to:

Hello everyone,

Thank you for the information, but that doesn't help me much. Could anyone propose an alternative solution? Anything that works would be ok for me. I just want to add new tiddlers without having them be displayed.

I also tried this, but it did not work neither:

\define colname()

column<$count filter="[tag[Column]]"/>

\end

<$button>+

<$action-setfield $tiddler=<<colname>> tags="Column"/>

</$button>

One approach that could work is to write a tiny JavaScript macro to implement <<colname>>.

Best wishes
