Hi all,

While saving a tiddler, the mode would change from edit mode to view
mode. This always made me difficult to find where I've edited.

I'm wondering if it is possible to have a special "save and keep
editing" button that keeping the tiddler remained in edit mode and
save the whole text to the file? Something like writing a gmail draft.
One can keep writing the mail in the box and save the text in anytime,
no need to change the mail from edit to view mode, or vice verse.

Cheers,
octw

That should do it... http://tiddlytools.com/#PreviewPlugin

Cheers, Tobias.

Yes, I know the plugin but it seems giving a preview not saving the
tiddler. If I want to save the changes, my problem still the same...

This might be of interest:

Wow, great FND. It worked just the way I want. Great thanks.
Btw, does it support keyboard shout cut?

Further one.

FND, is it possible that make the plugin auto saving the tiddler every
few minutes?

There's nothing built into the plugin, and adding access keys to toolbar
commands is a tricky issue anyway (if there are multiple tiddlers opened
in the story, which one should be acted upon?).

You could make it the the default command* for the EditTemplate though.

That'd be a separate plugin, I suppose - also, it might be considered
dangerous, as there's no way to revert. Saq did a drafts plugin a while
back though, that might be worth digging out of the group archives.

Wonderful. Moving the '+' mark from 'saveTiddler' to
'+quickSaveTiddler',
and the short cut would be changed too.

I'll dig into it. If I find anything, will report here. Thank again.
