tiddlywiki.com display version

[Thomas Schulte]

It would be nice if the version number showed up, maybe in the subtitle. This would making checking for updates faster.

Hi Thomas

I tried adding the version number to the site subtitle but I don’t think it works too well; it makes the sidebar more crowded, and it’s hard to pick the version number out (see below).

Another possibility concerns the thumbnail in the middle of the second row; it is highlighting the latest version with a graphic that I change to reflect the new features of each new version. So, seeing that image change is already a direct visual cue that you’re looking at a new version, but perhaps the version number itself could be more prominent. I’ll experiment with overlaying the version number on the thumbnail image (see second screenshot below).

What do you think?

Best wishes

Jeremy

The visual display of the number on the thumbnail will work just fine.
Thanks
Tom

I sometimes do this, as the title of the TW

TiddlyWiki @@color:silver; ^^,,<<version>>,,^^@@

Hi Jeremy

The image overlay would be great for tiddlywiki.com. I didn’t even realize the image changes for every new version.

Could you add the version number to the title attribute of the control panel icon? This way we would be able to check it very fast on every TW (as we can now opening the control panel).

Cheers, Thomas

The version number is also shown at the top of the Tools tab in the sidebar, do you think that might be sufficient?

Best wishes

Jeremy

As I do not use the Tools tab very often, I didn’t realise that either :–/
I still have to learn a lot … but yes, I think it is sufficient, even if it means more clicks on the desktop than hovering over an icon. On the plus side: it is visible on the mobile.

Kind regards, Thomas
