The built-in Image Editor is not so bad, BUT

The built-in Image Editor in TW is okay-ish.

I would like like to use it more to aid use of TiddlyTools PasteUp.

On two things I’m needing suggestions …

  1. How to, in TW, change the image editor to somehow function as if it had “UNDO LAST”
  2. Find a way to add a “TEXT OVERLAY” in the edit

Just wondering
TT

UPDATE

p.s. Maybe @telmiger has thoughts on this regarding “Interim Saves” handling?

Thanks for the heads up. Actually I once had an idea for text tiddlers in that direction. It went like this:

  • save a backup-tiddler every X characters entered/deleted (automagically in the background, using a counter appendix or prefix to the title)
  • show a back-button that loads the last backup tiddler (discarding the open tiddler, no option to regret going back)
  • discard all backups when the tiddler is saved
  • allow users to define intervals (X and max. numbers of steps/backup tiddlers)

I never built this because I was not able to save and keep the tiddler in edit mode AND keep the cursor position, which would be mandatory for a useful solution. Reacently I read in another thread, that @saqimtiaz found a way to do it.

Maybe something similar would be possible for the image editor? I don’t know.

Kind regards, Thomas

Thanks for the useful reply!

FWIW, with image tiddlers there is no cursor position problem since they don’t have one :smiley:.
