The “info”, “edit”, “close” troika has been a feature of TW5 since the
very early days. Recent discussion in Hangout #67 has made me question
whether we wouldn’t be better off with the defaults in this commit:
“more”, “edit”, “close”.
The rationale is that the primary purpose of the “info” button has
become gaining access to the tools that haven’t been elevated to being
toolbar buttons. Most of the rest of the content of the info panel is
pretty arcane. So let’s try it for a few days - I’d appreciate any
feedback.
The journal tiddler will be tagged with the name of the current
tiddler. This is similar to how the new here button works.
(Would have liked to reuse the journalButton code which is almost
identical between new-journal-here and new-journal, but I'm not
sure how to do it.)
This is a basic “new here” tiddler toolbar button that just creates a
new tiddler tagged with the title of the current tiddler.
@pmario is there anything else required?
The control panel isn’t the right place for tools; it’s a place for
settings and internal configuration.
Once again apologies to the translators for wiping out your hard work!
For example, the previous title for the tiddler containing the editor
types tab of control panel was
“$:/core/ui/ControlPanel/Advanced/EditorTypes”. We’re now removing the
“Advanced” portion, so that we don’t have to rename tiddlers like this
if we move them around between tabs
Re-introduces the “tw-auto-save-wiki” message. The previous approach of
automatically triggering autosave whenever a tiddler changed meant that
changing configuration changes in control panel was triggering an
autosave. Using the explicit message gives us better control of the
situations in which we’ll autosave.
Now we solve the earlier problem of there being outstanding tiddler
change events at the time that we process the “tw-auto-save-wiki” by
deferring the autosave until the outstanding change event comes in.
Previously we were using a message `tw-auto-save-wiki` to trigger an
autosave. The message was generated by certain UI actions such as
saving a tiddler. The trouble was that the message was being processed
before the wiki change event for the accompanying change had had a
chance to percolate. The end result was that the dirty indicator was
staying lit when using autosave.
The new approach abandons the autosave message and instead triggers the
autosave in the wiki change event when a relevant change occurs.
One happy side effect of these changes is that the dirty indicator now
works as expected with the client server edition - ie, when typing in a
draft tiddler the dirty indicator will flash briefly, and then clear
when the sync mechanism has completed saving the draft.
