You can organize your clippings into groups called clipping sets, each which may contain up to 99 clippings. There’s also a clipping set that automatically records what you’ve copied to the Clipboard. Use the clipping sets pop-up menu to change the current clipping set to a different one.

accessing the
Clipboard recorder
There’s a special clipping set called the Clipboard Recorder that automatically keeps a history of whatever you’ve copied to the Clipboard. You access it by choosing Clipboard Recorder from the clipping sets pop-up menu.
The Clipboard Recorder can come in handy in sitiuations where you previously copied something to the Clipboard without explicitly storing it in a clipping bin and you need to access it again. It can also be very useful for making a list from selections of a text document, where you quickly copy each item to the Clipboard, then use the Copy Text from All Clipping Bins feature to copy the whole list to the Clipboard.
You can also take a “snapshot” of the Clipboard Recorder by using the Duplicate Current Clipping Set feature. A dialog will appear so you can name the new clipping set that the clippings will be stored in.
To make a duplicate of the current clipping set, choose Duplicate Current Clipping Sets… from the Edit menu. A dialog will appear so you can name the new clipping set that the clippings will be stored in.
clipping sets dialog
To manage your clipping sets, choose Manage Clipping Sets… from the Edit menu. A dialog that displays all your clipping sets will then appear.
Clicking the New button creates a new clipping set. You can change the name of any existing clipping set by double-clicking its name field and entering a new name. Likewise, you can change the number of bins in a clipping set by double-clicking its bins field and entering a new number.
You can delete a clipping set by selecting it and then clicking the Delete button.
You can rearrange clipping sets in the list by dragging them to change the order that they appear in the clipping sets pop-up menu.
