How to make a tiddler available as icon in sidebar like "New Tiddler"?

#1

Hello Experts,

I have a Tiddler named “Guideline” and found out that there is an icon existing “$:/core/images/help”.
What I have to do to combine them and make the icon visible in the sidebar like the “+” for “New Tiddlers” and how to bring it into the right position?

If there is a guideline for I was to stupid to find them :cry:

Thx in advance
Stefan

Give this a try: Creating new toolbar buttons.

I believe the {{TITLE OF YOUR SVG IMAGE TIDDLER}} section should be replaced with {{$:/core/images/help}} since that’s the icon you want to use.

The given example is for creating a new tiddler. If you want the button to open an existing tiddler I believe you can replace the <$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" ... action with ActionNavigateWidget.

Hi @jegfish ,
thank you so much for your quick answer.
I followed the instruction of far.
But the icon appears in the toolbar, not in the sidebar and if I add the tag “$:/tags/SideBar” than the Button appear not the icon.

Here the pictures to explain it:

In Guideline-Knopf, adding a caption field with value {{$:/core/images/help}} might work…

Have fun,

For the records, the tiddler must be tagged $:/tags/PageControls

Have fun,
