Action for Link widget or LinkCatcher Widget or Something Similar

[Mohammad]

Is there any way to set some state tiddler or change the value of some fields in a state tiddler when clicking on a link?

I mean I want to store some values in a state tiddler when a link is clicked?

Use case:

 I use KeeBoord plugin for navigation in TW using some global shortcut keys!

I want to track which link is clicked by mouse and use it for updating my status in a state tiddler

Here I can do it for a list of links tagged for example with contact but, I think this is not the correct way!

A similar procedure can be used for other links perhaps through a macro to automate the work! but to me

this is not the optimal and correct way!

<ol>

<$list filter="[tag[contact]]" variable="myTid">

<li>

<$button class="tc-btn-invisible tc-tiddlylink" 

set="!!myfield" 

setTo=<<myTid>>

><<myTid>>

<$action-navigate $to=<<myTid>>/>

</$button></li>

</$list>

</ol>

Hi,

Put the link inside a button which navigates to the target of the link, as :

<$button class="tc-btn-invisible" to="HelloThere">
<$action-setfield  myfield="HelloThere"/>
<$link to="HelloThere">HelloThere</$link>
</$button>

Good hint FrD!

Thank you

Here is a lead if you get very serious with this.

To do it for all links I believe you would need to play with the navigation process.

However if you control the list of links you can use action navigate to maintain your own storylist, history list and a selected tiddler title.

The TWOutlier solution does this while using a customised TOC.

Thanks Tony! I should put more time to see how $navigator works!

Yes, may be I can customize and use my own story and history lists!
