That’s looking very cool.

As a mobile user (android, firefox) the canvas appears as a thin strip down the left of the tiddler, allowing one character per line!

Might be worth giving it it’s own thread.

Good point, I haven’t played around with it on android yet :slight_smile: if I put more work into it, I’ll give it it’s own thread.

Hi @well-noted , this looks great … it feels far away from the common TW-Logic, but I was surprised the canvas renders procedures - and is so powerfull to set the sidenote in there by rightclicking in the text. This seems somewhat dangerous though…

\procedure procName()
Your text comes⁠tufte-sidenote:sn-1767512627638⁠ here.
\end
Here's some content⁠tufte-figure:fig-1767512266729⁠ for your demo tiddler.

Try selecting this sentence⁠tufte-sidenote:sn-1767512243633⁠ and right-clicking to see the context menu!

<<procName>>

For transclusions the effects are also relevant, depending were I clicked I had different results: At the end of the braketts and at the ent of the tiddler:

<$tufte-container>
Try selecting this sentence and right-clicking to see the contex⁠tufte-sidenote:sn-1767513296035⁠t menu!

{{TestTransclusion⁠tufte-sidenote:sn-1767513281538⁠}}

</$tufte-container>
⁠tufte-sidenote:sn-1767513237869⁠

I would say this canvas is worth its own thread in tiddlytalk!

It would be safer to use Dynannotate to dynamically set annotations, because it does not write in the text itself.
Would be nice to have a tufte template here.
