Twine Version: 2.10.0
Fooling around with twine and harlowe, I found a problem:
Basically, I’m very minimalist in my experimenting, and also in my pet projects, but I have successfully introduced a slighty lighter sidebar (with a tiny test text):
, but in looking on varied colour passage (e.g. passage of time, or different areas) sidebar don’t change, leading to an ugly colorset:
The relevant sources are:
the CSS:
tw-story {
/* as I personally like */
Background-color: navy;
color: yellow;
font-size: 20pt;
max-width 75ex;
margin: 0 auto;
}
tw-link {
color: orange;
font-weight: normal;
}
tw-link:hover {
color: lime;
}
.visited {
color: purple;
}
.visited:hover {
color: magenta;
}
/* from mano & hal9k on intfic */
input[type=checkbox] {
accent-color: red;
}
tw-dialog-links {
flex-direction: column;
gap: 0.5rem;
}
tw-dialog-links > tw-link {
margin: 0 !important;
}
tw-sidebar {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 15%; /* padding-right of the tw-story element. */
max-height: 100%;
margin-top: 5%; /* padding-top of the tw-story element. */
padding: 0 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em;
text-align: left;
background-color: blue;
}
the header passage setting the sidetext:
(append: ?SideBar)
[testo di test]
the “normal” passage(s), rather vanilla:
My customary inglenook
Back to the [[START]]
the “special” passage:
(enchant:?sidebar,(bg:#c53932))
(enchant:?page,(bg:#451912))
don't worry, politics don't matter in those special passages ;)
As is evident from the screenshotts, the enchant:?sidebar don’t work as expected; I tried diverse variation, without success. and after my “48 hrs. of attempts” rule, I remain at loss on why don’t work, so I ask our community, what is gone wrong there ?
TIA and

and yes, I fess up: the ancient intellivision game Frog Bog gives a lasting impression in my youth, so in my experimentation/fooling around arena I wanted to recreate the background colour marking the passage of time, from the dawn pink to the black of the night…
