...when clicked (for example the "close this tiddler" icon) in browsers like google chrome and opera...? mozilla firefox seems to be immune to this (bad and) ugly blue U-frame behaviour.

kind regards,

Add the following in a tiddler tagged with $:/tags/Stylesheet:
.tc-btn-invisible { outline:none; }

That should do it.  Let me know how it goes.

enjoy,

thanks e!

perfect! that stylesheet did the trick! it works in either the google chrome web browser or the opera web browser.

for others wishing to try it out, below is a json snippet (between the "equal" rows) you can copy'n'paste the text into your favourite editor,
save as: "stylesheet frameless-icon.json", then open the empty edition of TiddlyWIki here:

https://tiddlywiki.com/empty.html

...and drag'n'drop your saved json file into the wiki and hit the "Import" button - the fix is instant! i.e. you don't have to do a full refresh of the wiki to see if it works. great! thanks again, eric!

cheers!

tiddler "stylesheet frameless-icons" as a json snippet:
==============================================
[
    {
        "text": ".tc-btn-invisible { outline:none; }",
        "type": "text/css",
        "title": "stylesheet frameless-icons",
        "tags": "$:/tags/Stylesheet"
    }
]
==============================================

hi mohammad,

please don't hi-jack and comment some others thread for a subject which don't have anything to do with it, for your sake! make your own thread with a descriptive subject... why? because now other members of this group probably won't read your "comment"... unless they are also interested in "how to get rid of the ugly blue U-frame around icons"...

cheers!

Hello Eric,
 I need your advise on the below issue
  1. I have developed a small code to search a tiddler and find <<ref tidname>> occurrences.
  2. The tidname then is sent to another macro to display selected fields
  3. When tidname is passed without quotes and it has no spaces, it works
  4. When tidname is passed with [[]], it works  
  5. When tidname is passed WITH single or double quotes, it fails
I expect macro can accept tidname with qoutes (single, double, triple) and it should works. I dont know where is the issue.

I have created an example and you can examine it online at:

Best regards
Mohammad

I have not seen this u artifact but perhaps the solution could respond to the current browser. If there is a good reason to avoid this perhaps it should be a fix?

Regards

hi tony,

well, my testing is limited... but, "the bug" is definitely triggered by google chrome 64-bit version 71.0.3578.98 and opera 64-bit version 58.0.3135.47 - both on 64-bit microsoft windows 10. Using the same m$ os with mozilla firefox quantum 64-bit version 64.0.2 doesn't trigger "the bug"... the "visual appearance" in firefox is the same with or without "the fix" (and "the bug" is not either triggered by internet explorer version 11.904.16299.0, update versions: 11.0.105 KB4480965, or m$ edge version 41.16299.820.0 m$ edgehtml 16.16299 - neither m$ web browsers say it's a 32-bit(!) or 64-bit version...).

btw, i've seen "kind of" same problem with tiddler frames (if you click in the tiddler frame "somewhere" where nothing is displayed) using google chrome and opera, you will see an ugly blue frame around the tiddler - but i really don't remember how i suppressed that with my "good-to-have" tiddlers for the "read-only-mode" wikis.

cheers!
