Folks, The various tm-edit-text-operation actions allow us to perform a number of different transformations of the selection. We can also add additional actions to do other things. This is used for defining editor toolbar buttons. I would like to pass the selected text to one of these other non tm…

@arunnbabu81 : here’s a minor update which provides two options (create new tiddler from selection, and make todo from selection). I have added some error checking, type conversion, and the selected words are TitleCased for the new tiddler (using the [[selection|Selection]] text replacement). You …

@fastfreddy I tried to modify the code. <<sticky "">> This is the sticky todo macro. I was able to insert the macro only when I changed double-quotes to single quotes in the macro. But then the todo macro won’t work then. Is there any way solve this ? Also can we use a widget other than tm-new-…

[image] fastfreddy: with the one caveat: Yes, this is very true, and it gets even worse if the content are produced from transclusion or some computation like a the output of $list widgets, macros, etc… I just wondering if dynanotate has the same issues ( @Mark_S ).

[image] fastfreddy: if the two aren’t identical, the source tiddler replacement will not work. True, but if the selection is not found in the raw tiddler, this tells us it is sourced elsewhere. We could indicate somehow the selection is not in the raw tiddler?, and allow some actions, only …

[image] Mohammad: I just wondering if dynanotate has the same issues ( @Mark_S ). Out of the box, dynannotate seems to be able to highlight (either through annotation or the search result feature) regardless of origin (raw Wikitext or fancy macro/transclusions). It seems to capture the rendered…

Can it be modified to work with macro made by JanJo. <<ToDo "" "" "">> Will it by possible to do all basic wiki text formatting using like bold, underline, headings, code blocks with this menu.

yes, all of this is possible and relatively trivial. [image] arunnbabu81: Can it be modified to work with macro made by JanJo. <<ToDo "" "" "">> Will it by possible to do all basic wiki text formatting using like bold, underline, headings, code blocks with this menu. yes @arunnbabu81 , all…

proof of concept @arunnbabu81 Interestingly, I stumbled another shortcoming. If the word selected appears multiple times, the replacement may or may not occur on the instance you want. The work around is to substitute all instances which is perhaps what you want, perhaps not. [image] This json …

[image] fastfreddy: think @fastfreddy I tried to use the version 0.0.3, but seem to be the same as version 0.0.2. ContextListener.js still has the todo option. Although the bold and underline comes in the context menu, I couldn’t find it in the ContextListener.js [image] [image] arunnb…
