Is there any way of creating a shortcut that makes my tiddlers show only their titles?

[Rafael Oliveira]

I'd like to create a shortcut that will toggle between hiding/showing the body of my open tiddlers... To illustrate better what I mean, let's say that I have three open tiddlers like the following:

Let's say I press ctrl+shit+alt+t, I'd like to see these same three tiddlers like the following:

After pressing ctrl+shit+alt+t, it toggles back to its original view... Is it possible to do something like this easily on TiddlyWiki? Is there any plugin with this kind of functionality? Or can I tweak TiddlyWiki configurations to make it happen?

Great :)

Is there any way of making the folded option the default one? I've searched this option inside the ControlPanel but I didn't find anything related to folding tiddlers there...

Rafael,

When you fold a tiddler a separate tiddler is created to indicate if its folded or not. 

If you use the Fold all Tiddlers in the Wiki toolbar (rather than on tiddlers) all visible tiddlers will be folded and you can unfold all, or unfold each on the tiddler toolbar.

See $:/core/ui/Buttons/fold-all it uses this action in abutton

<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-fold-all-tiddlers" $param=<<currentTiddler>> foldedStatePrefix="$:/state/folded/"/>

If as you create a tiddler you also create the folded state tiddler and set it to hide or show

<<folded-state>> returns the tiddler where the fold state is set

ControlPanel > Appearance > Toolbars > View Tool Bar > Fold Bar 

Is my preferred way to toggle the fold status

There is another related way to do this by setting a field on each tiddler

hide-body

The view template will hide bodies of tiddlers if set to: yes

However this leave no information this is in fact occurring so use judiciously, or you will think you have lost content..

I hope this leads you to a better understanding

Regards

Tony

After pressing ctrl+shit+alt+t, it toggles back to its original view... 

1) Create a tiddler named "$:/config/shortcuts/toggle-fold", with content:

ctrl-shift-alt-T

2) Create a tiddler named "$:/config/ShortcutInfo/toggle-fold", with content:

toggle fold (all tiddlers)

3) Create a tiddler named "$:/MyKeyboardShortcuts/toggle-fold", with content:

<$list filter="[enlist{$:/StoryList!!list}addprefix[$:/state/folded/]]">
   <$action-setfield text={{{ [<currentTiddler>{!!text}match[hide]then[show]else[hide]] }}} />
</$list>

4) Add tag "$:/tags/KeyboardShortcut" to that tiddler

5) Add a field named "key", with a value of "((toggle-fold))"

That's it.  You should now be able to press "ctrl-shift-alt-T" to toggle the folded state of all tiddlers.

Notes:

* The $list gets the current contents of the $:/StoryList list field, and adds the prefix used by the TWCore for tracking the folded state of a tiddler

* The $action-setfield toggles the text of each of those state tiddlers between "hide" and "show"

* Your new shortcut key will be listed in the $:/ControlPanel, Keyboard Shortcuts tab.

* You can use this interface to change the key assignment (click on the arrow next to the "toggle-fold" item to see the key assignments)

enjoy,

Thanks again Eric, this shortcut is going to be very useful for me because most of the time I'm opening permaview links with multiple tiddlers in each link. :)

Thanks TW Tones, I liked the "fold tiddler" option on ControlPanel > Appearance > Toolbars > View Tool Bar ... However, is there any kind of tweak for showing the text only in some buttons and not in others? I mean something like the following:

Instead of this:

Rafael,

I am sorry I do not understand what you are asking for here.

You show an icon, with formatted title and tag pills on the right!

• Is this a member of a list, or are you altering the way 

  $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/title works?

There is an option in 

Control Panel, Settings and at the bottom, Toolbar Buttons

Default toolbar button appearance:

 Include icon

 Include text

Those aren't tag pills.  That is the tiddler's view toolbar, with the "Toolbar Button Style" set to "rounded"

 

There is an option in 

Control Panel, Settings and at the bottom, Toolbar Buttons

Default toolbar button appearance:

 Include icon

What he's asking is if there is a way to show both icon and text for *most* of the toolbar buttons,

but have one toolbar button omit the text (specifically, the "fold tiddler" button)

Normally, you can only choose to show or no show the text for *all* the tiddler's View Toolbar buttons

(using the $:/ControlPanel, Settings, "Toolbar Buttons"  checkboxes)

To omit the text for one specific button, you can tweak the shadow tiddler that defines that

button's text.  The fold/unfold button is defined here:

   $:/core/ui/Buttons/fold

and, if you examine that tiddler's content, you can see that the *text* of the button

is retrieved from these *two* tiddlers

   $:/language/Buttons/Fold/Caption

and

   $:/language/Buttons/Unfold/Caption

If you edit those two shadow tiddlers and clear out their contents, then the

fold/unfold button will no longer have any text to display, even if the option for

showing the Toolbar Button text is selected in the $:/ControlPanel.

Thanks again everyone,

I removed the text of the folding icon and also the info icon on my TW:

Is there also a tiddler where I can define the order of the icons on the bar? I've tried searching tiddlers around $:/language/Buttons but I didn't find anything that looked like a list with a predefined order of those icons...

1) Create a tiddler (any name) containing:

<<tag $:/tags/ViewToolbar>>

2) When you view that tiddler, it will show a "tag pill" for $:/tags/ViewToolbar 

3) Click the tag pill to view the list of all tiddlers with that tag

4) Use drag-n-drop to change the order of the items listed

5) When you are done, you can delete the tiddler you created in step (1)

Note: as an alternative to steps (1), (2) and (5), you can view any

existing tiddler that is already tagged with $:/tags/ViewToolbar,

e.g., $:/core/ui/Buttons/fold

This will display the tag pill for you to use in steps (3) and (4)

Thanks again Eric,

May I assume that it's also true for the icons on the right?

Are they all linked to a tag and if I discover its name I can modify their order directly on the tiddler? I've tried searching for keywords like "home" and "close all" to identify the name of their tiddler to see what's their linked tag but it didn't work...

Those icons are referred to as the "Page toolbar".

You can select *and re-order* the toolbar icons

directly from the $:/ControlPanel, Appearance, Toolbars tab.

Just view the tab for the desired toolbar and then use

drag-n-drop to reorder them.  In fact, this works for all

the different toolbars, including the ViewToolbar that we

discussed in the previous message!

[Rafael Oliveira]

Ah yeah, the ViewToolbar also works from there...

Thanks again
