TOC-SELECTIVE-EXPANDABLE different results in Tiddlydesktop and Chrome

[Mohammad]

I have found a strange behaviour when I open my tw5 inside Tiddlydesktop and chrome

Part I.

I have a code like this 

<div class="tc-table-of-contents">

<<toc-selective-expandable 

   tag:"slider"

   sort:"sort[caption]"

   exclude:"-[tag[slideFooter]]">>

</div>

Part II.

And another tiddler with the below code to rearrange the tiddlers tagged with slider

    <ol>

      <<list-tagged-draggable 

      tag:$(currentTiddler)$  

      subFilter:"!tag[slideFooter]"

      itemTemplate:"$:/.mr/slider/draggable-template"

      emptyMessage:"You don't have any slide in this slider"

      >>

    </ol>

Note the $:/.mr/slider/draggable-template is a tiddler as below

<li><$link to={{!!title}}>{{!!title}}</$link></li>    

I use the second tiddler and rearrange them, but strangely I see different results when I use Tiddlydesktop and chrome!!!

In chrome I see the toc macro shows the tiddler in the right order, but In Tiddlydesktop I got wrong order! It should be noted that The tiddler in part b shows the correct result in both chrome and tiddlydesktop!!!

What do you think?

Just to be clear, you were using a copy of TW5.1.18pre on TiddlyDesktop? And what version of TiddlyDesktop? (maybe platform too).

Seems something wrong with TW5.1.18pre or changes in the prerelease break the code!

There's something missing/wrong with Part II. You're using $(currentTiddler)$ which only works in a macro, but you're not showing how the macro is defined nor how it is called.

Mark, I use Tiddlywiki 5.1.18pre of Oct 3rd, 2018 and Tiddlydesktop 0.013 the latest release!

I noticed the TW5.1.18pre has modified toc-selective-expandable macro!

Mark, I reproduces the issues and export it as a json file!

import it into tiddlywiki.com/prerealease and tiddlywiki.com to see different results and also in TiddlywikiDesktop!

Mohammad

[Mark S.]

Your JSON doesn't have part II in it, and that is the part that is broken.

Mark,

 Open the Cat tiddler, part II is inside it! I send the whole code (wiki) to your email!

Hello Mark,

 I attached two pictures! you can see the different results in Chrome/Firefox browser and Tiddlydesktop!

The result by FF has not been attached as it is the same as Chrome!

Update

It doesnt even work in TW 5.1.17!

[Mark S.]

It doesn't work because "Cat" is wrong. You can't use $(currentTiddler)$ outside a macro. Change the contents of  "Cat" like this:

\define doit()

 <ol>
      <<list-tagged-draggable
      tag:$(currentTiddler)$  
      subFilter:"!tag[slideFooter]"
      itemTemplate:"$:/.mr/slider/draggable-template"
      emptyMessage:"You don't have any slide in this slider"
      >>
    </ol>
   

\end
<<doit>>

and then it will work as expected.

Thanks,

Mark,

Still does not work!

Check in TiddlywikiDesktop!

Mohammad

[Mark S.]

I did. It works fine. I slide entries in "Cat" (the way I have it here) and the changes immediately appear below in Slider-List.

Unfortunately I can't see what you're doing in your set-up. But, as I keep mentioning, you can not use $(currentTiddler)$ outside a macro and expect it to do anything. Perhaps a screen shot of the contents of your "Cat" tiddler will help.

[Mark S.]

Here's some screen shots.

First, what it looks like before (you can see that it's a pre-release):

Here is the same tiddlers immediately after moving Persian Cat to the top:

Thank you Mark!

Have you tested it on TiddlyDesktop? Does it give the same results?

Mohammad 

[Mark S.]

That was on TiddlyDesktop (Windows 64)

[Mohammad]

Mark,

I sent you the wiki to your email! You can see its behavior is different in TiddlyDesktop and Chrome!

Recently I realised the exclude atribute does not work as expected! By the way without exclude

still I get different results in Chrome and TiddlyDesktop. I think something goes wrong with toc-selective-expandable macro!

Thank you

[Mohammad]

Further clarification!

If you noticed I used exclude attribute and I had some Footer tiddler which were excluded both in 

      <<list-tagged-draggable 

      tag:"""$(currentTiddler)$"""

      subFilter:"!tag[slideFooter]"

      itemTemplate:"$:/.mr/slider/draggable-template"

      emptyMessage:"You don't have any slide in this presentation"

      >>

ans aldo in the TOC

<$scrollable class='slider-list'>

<div class="tc-table-of-contents">

<<toc-selective-expandable 

   tag:"slider" 

   exclude:"-[tag[slideFooter]]"

   sort:"sort[caption]">>

</div>

</$scrollable>

Note to slideFooter tag.

It seems these two were inconsistent and caused the error! 

After removing these I got the correct results both in TW-Chrome and TW-Tiddlydesktop.

Just it is very strange why the behavior was different and why TiddlyDesktop showed different results.
