Thanks @Mohammad for this very valuable set of tools.

• I need to decide if it should be in my Essential Editions: Personal Notebook edition - development and feedback
• I was just reviewing your demo site an noticed a little bug, I expect it is a z-index, I can’t see the reference to the right of the popup eg in ## demo/ref-macro

@TW_Tones

I was just reviewing your demo site an noticed a little bug, I expect it is a z-index, I can’t see the reference to the right of the popup eg in ## demo/ref-macro

That is because of settings in tabs macro to not overflow to the right!
If you watch ref popup on its own tiddler or if you close the sidebar it will be displayed correctly.
Refnotes handles popup for small screens, but further control needs JS.

There are some discussions in forum and GitHub improving the popup functionality in TW, but with no success.

In 1.8.1 Refnotes is more powerful than ever. It can be used as Reference manager for Tiddlywiki and opens a new window for simple and quick academic citation/bibliography for online webpages (e.g. online TW).

@Mohammad

@Mohammad Can you explain how or point to the relevant documentation please. I am working on tiddlywiki.com supporting doco right now and very interested.

Hi @TW_Tones
Please see

https://kookma.github.io/TW-Refnotes/#Refnotes%20Tutorial
https://kookma.github.io/TW-Refnotes/#Refnotes%20Advanced%20Topics

The Reference manager here means create bibliography, citation and reference list.
This is what is used in academic writing.
