I can’t see how you’d display normal Tiddlers with it.

It seems to only work in edit mode?

I hope this is clearer!

That would be easy to do I guess…just have to remove the edit text area from the table. I will try when I am back home…but what is the need of using modal to view the tiddler?

Very useful for, for instance, documentation.
They are superior to popups in that you can house within one an entire eco-system of information.

I have added another view toolbar button to open a modal which doesn’t have an edit mode. Is this what you were telling about? Or may be I didnt understand what you were trying to explain.

Exactly that!

Thankyou very much for taking the time to do that on my request!

It is very useful to see practical tweaking of modals.
The main thing for me is your approach uses the screen space well!

Best wishes

Actually it not my creation. Charlie Veniot is the original author of these modal related experiments. I just tweaked them for my own uses.

Thanks to @Charlie_Veniot too! I kinda knew that, but you (@arunnbabu81) did a lot of work extending it.

Anyway, thanks to both of you!
