Understanding ClipBook Viewer

The ClipBook Viewer window contains two smaller windows:  the Local ClipBook and the Clipboard. The Local ClipBook window opens when you first start ClipBook Viewer. The Clipboard window appears as an icon.

The Clipboard temporarily stores information you are transferring between documents, and the ClipBook permanently stores information you want to save and share with others.

The Clipboard window shows the contents of the Clipboard. When you cut or copy information from an application, it is placed onto the Clipboard and remains there until you clear the Clipboard, or until you cut or copy another piece of information. You can paste the information into any document as often as you like.

You can permanently save the contents of the Clipboard by copying it onto your Local ClipBook. You can save several pieces of information (called pages) on it and then copy the information back onto the Clipboard when you want to paste it into a document.

After information is saved as a page, you can share it. Each computer has its own ClipBook. You can connect to a ClipBook on another computer, and others can connect to the ClipBook on your computer to use the information in shared pages.


Understanding the ClipBook Viewer Toolbar

The ClipBook Viewer toolbar is located directly below the menu bar. You can use the toolbar for quick access to many ClipBook Viewer features.

The ClipBook Viewer toolbar contains the following buttons:

Click	To

 Connect	Connect to a ClipBook on another computer.

 Disconnect	Disconnect from a ClipBook on another computer.

 Share	Share a ClipBook page.

 Stop Sharing	Stop sharing a ClipBook page.

 Copy	Copy the selected ClipBook page onto the Clipboard.

 Paste	Paste the contents of the Clipboard onto the ClipBook.

 Table of Contents	Display the titles of the pages saved on the ClipBook.

 Thumbnails	Display small pictures (thumbnails) of each page on the ClipBook.

 Full Page	Display the contents of the selected ClipBook page.


Clearing the Contents of the Clipboard

Because the Clipboard stores information in multiple formats, clearing it may free some memory to run an application.

To clear the contents of the Clipboard

1	Select the Clipboard icon or window.

2	On the toolbar, click Delete.

Or, on the Edit menu, click Delete.


Saving the Clipboard Contents to a File

You can save the contents of the Clipboard either onto a page on the Local ClipBook or to a Clipboard file. The former is the preferred method because it is easier to view, retrieve, and share. Clipboard files cannot be shared.

To save the contents of the Clipboard to a file

1	Select the Clipboard icon or window.

2	On the File menu, click Save As.

3	In the Save As dialog box, type a filename. The default extension for a Clipboard file is .clp.

Transferring Information When Using Windows NT-Based Applications

The Clipboard temporarily stores information that is being copied or moved from one document to another. After the information is on the Clipboard, you can save it, view it in other formats, or remove it from the Clipboard.

You can use the Clipboard to transfer information between applications. The method you use varies, depending on the type of application you are copying from and pasting to.

By using the Cut, Copy, and Paste commands found in most Windows NT-based applications, you can copy or move information within a document, between documents, or between applications.

To transfer information by using the Clipboard

1	Select the information you want to copy or move:

To copy the information, click Copy on the Edit menu.

To move the information, click Cut on the Edit menu.

2	Position the insertion point where you want the information.

Or, switch to another document or application, and then position the insertion point where you want the information.

3	On the Edit menu, click Paste.

To copy an image of the active window onto the Clipboard

 	Press ALT+PRINT SCREEN.

To copy an image of the contents of the entire screen onto the Clipboard

 	Press PRINT SCREEN.


Copying Information from an MS-DOS-Based Application

When transferring information between MS-DOS-based applications, you first cut or copy the information onto the Clipboard and then paste it into a document.

When using an MS-DOS-based application in a window, you can copy selected information, an image of the window, or an image of the desktop onto the Clipboard. When using a full-screen application, you can only copy an image of the contents of the entire screen onto the Clipboard.

To copy selected information onto the Clipboard

1	Click the application's Control-menu box.

Or, press ALT+SPACEBAR to open the Control menu.

2	On the Control menu, click Edit, and then click Mark.

3	In your document, select the information you want to copy.

4	Click the application's Control-menu box.

Or, press ALT+SPACEBAR to open the Control menu.

5	On the Control menu, click Edit and then click Copy.

To copy an image of the active window onto the Clipboard

 	Press ALT+PRINT SCREEN.

To copy an image of the contents of the entire screen onto the Clipboard

 	Press PRINT SCREEN.

Note

 	This procedure works for MS-DOS-based applications only if they are running in text mode, not graphics mode.


Pasting Information into an MS-DOS-Based Application

MS-DOS-based applications can run in a window or in a full screen.

You can paste only text into an MS-DOS-based application.

To paste into a full-screen application

1	Copy the information onto the Clipboard.

2	Switch to the application into which you want to paste the information.

3	Place the insertion point where you want the information to appear.

Or, press ALT+SPACEBAR to open the Control menu.

5	On the Control menu, click Edit, and then click Paste.


Viewing the Contents of the Clipboard or a ClipBook Page in Different Formats

The Clipboard stores information in multiple formats so that you can transfer information between applications that use different formats. The Clipboard stores text in three formats. Owner Display is the character set of fonts you use when creating text. The Text character set is used by most Windows NT-based applications. The OEM Text format is used by MS-DOS-based applications.

The formats are listed on the View menu. Those that cannot be displayed are listed on the menu but appear dimmed and cannot be chosen. A check mark appears by the current format.

Notes

The type of display driver you are using determines whether you can view the page contents from another computer's ClipBook in bitmap format.

Before you can view or change the format of the information on a ClipBook page, you must have the page selected and be in Full Page view.

To select Full Page view

1	Select the ClipBook window.

2	Select the page you want to view.

3	On the toolbar, click the Full Page button.

Or, on the View menu, click Full Page.

To return to the initial format

Permissions for Shared ClipBook Pages

When you designate a ClipBook page as shared, you can specify what ClipBook Viewer will permit other users to do with the page. You can set the following permissions on individual shared ClipBook pages:

 No Access

 Read

 Read and Link

 Change

 Full Control

No Access overrides any other permission. Except for No Access, permissions are cumulative: if an individual user is assigned more than one permission to a shared ClipBook page—for example, by being a member of more than one group, each of which is assigned a different permission—all permissions granted to the user are available.

By default, the person who creates a shared ClipBook page has Full Control permission, and members of the group Everyone have Read and Link permission.


No Access

Prevents any access to the shared ClipBook page. If a user has No Access permission, the page is unavailable even if the user otherwise has access to the ClipBook.
