title: CurrentTiddler
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki

The CurrentTiddler is the current tiddler during WikiText processing. A context tiddler is set by the TiddlerWidget. It allows you to write references like `<$view field="title" format="link"/>` in TemplateTiddlers without explicitly specifying the tiddler that it applies to.

The title of the current tiddler is contained in the widget variable ''currentTiddler''.
