TiddlyTouch - help with a Button

[BurningTreeC]

Hello awesome TiddlyWiki community people,

I need help with a button, I just cannot get why it doesn't work. maybe you can help me

The problem is, that everything works but the second <$action-setfield> in <<theButton>> - I have no clue why

The variables there are all passed as I've checked them.. boh

this is the button:

\define columnicons()

{{$:/plugins/BTC/tiddly-touch/icons!!columns-$(tiddlerWidth)$}}

\end

\define theButton()

<$button class="tc-btn-invisible tc-toolbar-icon tc-toolbar-icon-topleft" tooltip="toggle tiddler width">

<$list filter="[[$(tiddlerWidth)$]!regexp[^0]]">

<$action-setfield $tiddler="$(storyTiddler)$" $field="muuri-tiddler-width" $value="$(nextValue)$" $timestamp="no"/>

<$action-setfield $tiddler="$(nextStoryTiddler)$" $field="muuri-tiddler-width" $value="$(nextNextValue)$" $timestamp="no"/>

</$list>

<$list filter="[[$(tiddlerWidth)$]regexp[^0]]">

<$action-setfield $tiddler="$(storyTiddler)$" $field="muuri-tiddler-width" $value="6" $timestamp="no"/>

</$list>

<<columnicons>></$button>

\end

\define toggle-tiddler-width()

<$set name="tiddlerWidth" filter="[[$(storyTiddler)$]has[muuri-tiddler-width]get[muuri-tiddler-width]regexp[^(0|1|2|3|4|5|6)$]] [[$(storyTiddler)$]has[muuri-tiddler-width]get[muuri-tiddler-width]!regexp[^(0|1|2|3|4|5|6)$]addprefix[0]] [[$(storyTiddler)$]!has[muuri-tiddler-width]addprefix[0]removesuffix[$(storyTiddler)$]]">

<$set name="nextValue" filter="[<tiddlerWidth>next[$:/plugins/BTC/tiddly-touch/Buttons/toggle-tiddler-width]]">

<$set name="nextNextValue" filter="[<nextValue>next[$:/plugins/BTC/tiddly-touch/Buttons/toggle-tiddler-width]]">

<$set name="nextStoryTiddler" filter="[[$(storyTiddler)$]next[$:/StoryList]]">

<<theButton>>

</$set></$set></$set></$set>

\end

<<toggle-tiddler-width>>

edit: removed an unset variable that was just temporary (thisCurrentTiddler :D)

update to this issue:

now I know why, but I don't know how to solve it:

the tiddler, the second action gets applied to, gets read from the storylist and can have [[ ]] brackets.

I need it's name without brackets. How can I get that?

I've answered it to myself - this happens often lately to me - I think I'm getting old

If the values in the variables might contain spaces, you probably want to use triple-quotes:

"""$(nextStoryTiddler)$"""

Just a guess - didn't look any deeper.

yes that'd be better, thanks!

I want to share what the problem was, because this happens to me twice a month

the set-widget filter gets the Tiddler names with brackets, the list-filter without

We should create some TiddlyWiki mantras for things like that :)
