Markdown WYSIWYG online editor

This is not the first I've seen, but it's very cool.

• Create docs, publish, Save to GDrive and Dropbox. (plug: if you don't have it yet, here's an extra 5 Gb from copy.com)
  
• The formatted text is always side-by-side with the source.

Hi RA

Thanks for that. It's pretty nice, but perhaps not so much WYSIWYG as a more sophisticated take on TW5's preview pane. It's got some neat features, such as keeping the preview in sync with the original text.

Best wishes

Jeremy

I didn't mean (at least not conciously) to pitch it directly against TW5's preview pane :D

Can we see a sync like that in TW5 one day? Would be very handy for longer tiddlers.

Well preview panes are fairly common, I guess, but stackedit is particularly slick, and so I think there's a lot to learn from it.

I agree, although I don't have an implementation in mind at present.

Best wishes

Jeremy.

This is incredibly cool. So ridiculously cool.

I've just been trying to get the regular side-by-side in TWC to work smoothly for me, but with the Synchronizing and publishing features, and the extensions, like the focus mode and scroll link, I just about started drooling with jealousy.

Currently, the preview mode of TW5, being no bigger than 288px, is essentially useless to me- I want to be able to have my preview fill enough of the screen that I actually get to see what it will look like.

The hugest problem with stackedit.io is that... well, it isn't tiddlywiki. You can't link easily between documents with simple syntax, and you can't tag. I use Tiddlywiki as a writing environment and writing organization tool. Usually large essays or blog posts. I've had an idea in my head of what kind of typing environment I've wanted for years, and I figured I'd never find it; I'd just have to make due by hacking something together in TWC. Stackedit right there blew me away because it was EXACTLY, bit for bit, what I imagined in my head as the perfect typing environment.

What I wouldn't give for those features put into Tiddlywiki.

Just go to the ControlPanel: Appearance: ThemeTweaks
and set the last 3 values according to your screen size.

So it looks similar to this: (Just add a 1 in front of every default value)

Story right (the distance between the left side of the screen and the left margin of the sidebar area): `1770px`
Story width (the width of the story river or tiddler area): `1770px`
Tiddler width (the width of individual tiddlers – used for zoomin storyview): `1686px`

This will make the Preview area about 700 pixels wide.
If you save your TW, the values will be preserved.

I think TW5 could work with the above settings as a default, but I think there would be many users who need to change there defaults.

have fun!

I go back and forth, quite frequently, between two monitors of vastly different sizes. Usually, I am on my laptop, hooked up to a larger monitor, viewing things on the larger monitor, but about 35-40% of the time, I'm just on my laptop. TWC handles this switching setup seamlessly.   

I tried the solution you suggested, for a while, and it just didn't work at all for me. It would mean that I'd have to permanently set it for viewing on only my laptop screen, not my main screen, which is just awful. I bought this larger monitor for a reason, you know? 

There were a bunch of other tweaks and hacks I tried, but I usually try to tweak one thing at a time to see its effects, and then gradually get it how I want it. After weeks of fiddling with it, I gave up trying to make a visual setup I was comfortable with, because it became clear that I'd have to full out learn CSS and make a completely new stylesheet, in order to get things I had seen implemented as default before. It frustrated me, so I'm not actually interested in TW5 anymore until for now, until there exists a pre-baked theme resembling the look and feel of TWC (with collapsible sidebars, like the easy to add plugins provide). It's cool, I'm not mad at anybody or anything; I know how hard doing all this coding is. I'm just gonna go use something I can use. 

Cheers!
