Hello everyone,

Yet another query. Is there a way to add an image Tiddler to another Tiddler. It would be better if its one one side of the text. I tried this
<<thumbnail-right [img[Image-1]]>>
Doesnt show anything but the space is cleared on the right side.

While using just [img[Image-1]], image Pops up inline.

Can someone please tell me how to handle images in a Tiddler.

With the thumbnail-right macro you wouldn't wrap the name in [img[xxx]]. Instead you'd use something like

<<thumbnail-right image:"Image-1" >>

or at least per the example page.

G'day,

Probably no what you're looking for, but if only for the $hit$ and the giggle$ (and the off-chance this does give you any neat ideas) ...

I went with a custom solution (using template transclusions and such) so that "product" thumbnails show up consistently, and clicking on a thumbnail shows the full-sized image in a modal window.


Cheers !

Hi CJ,

That looks pretty helpful! I think I'll use it for shopping.

Eric:  Thanks for clarifying that speedily!  I'm a little late to the party over here.  And not particularly fashionably...

That details widget plugin is pretty sweet, eh?  Doesn't work on browsers that don't support HTML5, but nothing breaks (i.e. content is shown without the expanding/collapsing capability.)

I'm a big fan of things that let me see more details without moving away from a tiddler I'm focused on.
