Requesting help with felixhayashi's plugin TopStory View - Not sure how to request help anyway

[Daerokos Galvan]

I've posted a few times before, but no responses yet. Just wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to ask this question a better way, maybe I am not providing enough information.

In topstory view, is it possible to still have only one tiddler open at a time?

alternatively, if it were easier,

is it possible in Zoomin story view to have the new tiddler that opens be scrolled to the top of the page? opening an internal tiddler link when scrolled down into the body of a tiddler opens the new tiddler at that scroll height, cutting off the top of the newly opened tiddler.

Any help would greatly be appreciated! thanks in advance

Daerokos,

That is disappointing and I believe rare,  that you do not get a response, no matter how "silly" the Question. We love helping anyone. You are right to restate your question.

I don't fuss with alternate views so often but I wanted to say you are asking the question quite well, only I suggest visiting tiddlywiki.com or using an empty.html to try anything can be very helpful, 

because you see the standard and avoid a possible local Wiki problem. It means others may be able to reproduce the problem.

The Zoomin Story view is the single tiddler view story. See if you can reproduce your problem there.

Please explain the topstory view what is it where do you find it?

Regards

Tony

Daerokos,

as noted in Tonys answer, it is good to provide a link to what it is one is asking about - in this case TopStoryView.

If you're using zoomin, which only shows one tiddler at a time, why would you need TopStoryView?

For the record, TopStoryView was a solution to a problem which is now mostly solved, namely that in native TW if the tiddler was below the viewport, the scrolling only rolled so far as to align the bottom edge of the tiddler with the viewport bottom. The desired tiddler ended up in different places on the screen. With TopStoryView, but now also with native TW, the tiddler aligns with viewport top (as it should be). If I recall, the only remaining discrepancy is that TopStoryView also makes the rivers very lowermost tiddler align with the top whereas native TW still aligns that tiddlers bottom ege with the bottom of viewport edge. When that tiddler is short you thus see other tiddlers above it.

If you still need an answer to your question, I would not expect anyone but Felix to speak on it with authority.
