Folks,

I have a lots of tiddlers I want to open in the story. Once I have done this I will do something on each tiddler. But until then I do not want to have to scroll back to my list.

Can anyone tell me how to provide a link to a tiddler in a list that will open but not navigate to it?

Thanks in advance
Tony

This is one way:

<$button>
<$action-navigate $to=SomeTiddler $scroll=no/>
DO EET!!
</$button>

making a macro to style it like a link and use the tiddler text as the button text could make it less obtrusive.

Thanks Jed,

That works perfectly. I had missed that $scroll parameter.

Into my documentation the one goes.

You can also simply hold down the Ctrl key while clicking on the link.

Thanks mat, they both have there place including the open in new window button.

I have a modified open in new window button that closes the tiddler more a move to new window.

Hi,

If you CTRL-click a link, it will be opened, without scrolling.
