How to add "new here" to ToolbarCommands?

[Robert Mark Bram]

Hi All,

I have added the NewHerePlugin (http://mptw.tiddlyspot.com/#NewHerePlugin) and want to add the command to the view toolbar. How do I do this?

I tried editing ToolbarCommands to add newHere, but this does nothing:

|~ViewToolbar|+editTiddler +cloneTiddler > fields refreshTiddler changeToPublic changeToPrivate newHere revisions syncing permalink references jump closeOthers < closeTiddler|

So, how do I do this?

Do I even need the NewHerePlugin? I read somewhere else that this would do the same:  <<newTiddler ... tag:{{tiddler.title}}>> , but that just gives a button that creates a tiddler with the tag "tiddler.title".

I would like to do a similar thing in the toolbar with the QuickNote command: <<quickNote dateformat:"-YYYY0MM0DD-0hh0mm0ss" tags:"quicknote journal">>

Any clues on these three things would be most appreciated!

Hi Rob,
do you use a file TW or TiddlySpace?
TiddlySpace doesn't allow {{tiddler.title}} anymore, due to security
concerns.

If you have a look at the plugins source [1], you'l see it just uses
<<newTiddler..>> macro.
But as far as I know, MPTW uses it inside the MptwTheme tiddler. See
section ViewTemplateToolbar

I did a short test and included it into the ToolbarCommands tiddler.
It doesn't do anything.

The reason it does nothing is because the newHere plugin is a macro 

config.macros.newHere ...

whereas the ToolbarCommands looks for commands

config.commands.<commandName>

hence it can't find newHere when you add it to ToolbarCommands

I did a short shot at my teamwork place and created a "newTagged"
command.
That works like newHere but is a ToolbarCommand.

if you want to have a different button text, read the plugin docu :)

Feedback is very welcome !!

have fun!

Well, I do use TiddleSpace.

How exactly do you create a new command please? I am googling, but not finding anything useful yet.

Wow, thanks for that - I now have your command, and have learnt that you can add to system objects like config.commands in *any* tiddler, Javascript syntax.

One more thing then.. how do I put a nice icon there instead of the text - the icons in TiddlySpace look pretty good and I don't to mar the look now. :)

Thanks again!

Thanks for this Mario!

One more question. :)

Can that command be adapted to be a journalling one? I.e. make title include the username and time-stamp, add "journal" to the tag list?

just create an icon named "newTagged" (without the qoutes).
It needs to be an svg icon. TiddlySpace will handle it.

A more complex ToolbarCommand isn't usefull, because it doesn't have
the flexibility you need. It would be just more complex.

Have a look at the MPTW theming [1].
See section !ViewTemplate and !ViewTemplateToolbar. Doing it this way
will give you all the flexibility, you need.

To avoid the {{..}} in the journal, just hardcode it.

newTiddler, newJournal parameters are at [2] and [3]

Uuups,
The icon will be a problem here :)
Needs some more thinking.
