Timeline macro - is there a way to limit by last X number of days rather than by number of tiddlers?

#1

Hi everyone

I want a tiddler where each Friday I can review my work log for the last seven days. I am aware I could just check the first seven days of the Recent tab, but would like to have TW limit to seven for me so I don’t have to keep count. Is there a way to filter the timeline macro by last X number of days rather than by number of tiddlers?

Perhaps you can make use of the subfilter as documented here? Keep the limit high and use the days filter in the sub filter to limit it to the last seven days days[-7]

See $:/core/ui/SideBar/Recent it contains;
<$macrocall $name="timeline" format={{$:/language/RecentChanges/DateFormat}}/>

Perhaps clone this, change the caption to week and edit as follows
<$macrocall $name="timeline" limit=200 format={{$:/language/RecentChanges/DateFormat}} subfilter="days[-7]"/>
An additional tab means the default remains as is.

This seems to be doing the job.

However perhaps if one could change the number of days, eg edit or buttons for day/7days/14days/31days/62days/

Of course other subfilters could be used to filter on current month, current week number etc…

Thank you Tones, that does indeed seem to work perfectly.
