One thing that I think interesting is whether it would ever be possible from an URL to trigger an MCL TiddlyWiki to start a specific Ensemble via the URL?
Just a general query!
My thinking is that you can use ensembles to show many things but to leverage them you’d need a way to “invoke” the one you wanted from an URL?
Is this a pipe dream? 
Best, TT.
Yes, I don’t think that’s doable

Hi Simon,
That’s something I can work on, thanks!
Essentially what I’m trying to get to is a better version of the split-view plugin using MCL rather than fixed grid (which expands smaller tiddlers to make them equal height such as with the README below).
Plus the other benefits of MCL such as the up/down and cross-column drag magic.
That’s the idea anyway, will take a look.
Thanks again,
Aidan
I think it very interesting having a “simple canvas” like …
I’m interested, @ahanniga, where you get with it.
Best, TT
@BurningTreeC Can ensemble feature be made as a seperate plug in for working with non-MCL wikis.
I have extracted the ensemble tiddlers from the MCL plug in and used in other wikis. It works fine. But there are MCL only fields like column in it. So ensemble as a seperate plug in would be useful for non-MCL uses.
The solution told here is not working for hotzone and echarts TheBrain (The error message is not seen, but the TheBrain echarts is not working)
Here is a demo wiki - https://mcl-echarts.tiddlyhost.com/
I have embedded the demo site of echarts TheBrain also inside the wiki for comparison
Hey all,
are people still using MCL?
best wishes,
Simon
I have not lately but it remains an essential alternative way to making use of tiddlywiki. It seems to me, but a matter of time, until I have a solution that demands it.
Very much so! It is brilliant!
I have some comments for tweaking it a bit.
But only if you have time: I am aware of your music-ing and boating activities 
.

Yes! Every day, it is a genuine quality of life improvement and indeed brilliant as TT said!
I love it!
I think the ensamble button is the beginnings of what a layout button could be… *dreams of switching on and off combinations of plugins, themes, fixed and fluid, then being able to save it at the push of a button, able to switch between configurations… *
Granted becomes a little problematic on the save and refresh plugins but…
Yes. MCL is still installed on my wiki. Gets regular use.
Of course, and welcome back! We missed you!
Hey all,
nice to hear that MCL is still in use 
That motivates me to improve it!
I’m still using it daily for work purposes where it’s some kind of a filterable information dashboard
I’m also using the “github topbar” - how would the ideal topbar look like for you?
Thank you and best wishes,
Simon
I think this should be a new thread
@BurningTreeC I am experiencing this bug when I am using context-menu plug in with MCL. Here is a demo. The context menu doesn’t even appear on right clicking.
Hi, you can update the tw version to get the layout icon Is there a button to switch layout? - #17 by linonetwo
And as suggested in Feat/button default layout by linonetwo · Pull Request #7197 · Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5 · GitHub you can have an unique icon field in layout tiddler, to show it in the list.
I started experimenting with your multi-column layout today for the first time and I really like it so far. Very interesting concept and I am considering using it with my Kansas Railroad wiki. I do have a question though. I use the MenuBar plugin with my wiki, but it disappears when I switch to the multi-column layout. Is there a way that I can have the best of both worlds, i.e., have multi-column layout and the MenuBar?
Thanks!
Edit: I did find where you mentioned adding the tag $:/tags/TopToolbar to create a menu bar. I did that to replicate the MenuBar plugin in two ways (though not at the same time). Adding the tag to $:/plugins/tiddlywiki/menubar/menu and a brand new tiddler with the same contents as .$:/plugins/tiddlywiki/menubar/menu. In both cases, the menu shows up just fine, but none of the links in the menu work. Buttons pull down the menu options or do commands, but I can’t open any tiddlers from the links in the menu.
Hey.
First off - I love your tool, it’s great.
I’ve also run into some plugin incompatibilities - the “preview” plugin which shows a preview of a tiddler when hovering internal links loses its position reference, and I’m guessing tries to position the pop-up relative to the global window scrollbar, instead of the small sub-scrollbars you’ve introduced.
I was wondering if you could give me a hint as to how I can identify which scrollbar/dom element to position relative to. I could not see the dom changing in a way that would give me an easy answer - maybe it’s all JS? I’ll appreciate some insight.
Thanks in advance. I love the plugin.
