Configure KlickBoard

To set KlickBoard options, click the Configure button  [image] on the main window. The Configure KlickBoard window is divided into three tabs:

•	General Tab

•	Properties Tab

•	Predefined Fields Tab

Each tab can be thought of as representing a page.

General Tab

Here you can set the keyboard and mouse methods to activate Klickboard using the combinations given in the dropdown listbox. To delete the stored Klickboard items click the 'Delete All Items' button.

In addition you can choose to switch mousetips on or off.

Properties Tab

Here you can enter the keystrokes to paste the clipboard contents. The keystrokes refers to the order of keyboard characters used to paste clipboard items into a document, e.g. most Windows programs use the Alt, Edit, Paste combination. So the keystrokes are  Alt, E and P. KlickBoard mimicks these keystrokes when pasting information into your documents.

The default keystroke is usually sufficient to paste into most windows applications. However, Klickboard provides two user definable keystrokes which can be tailored for use in applications which have non-standard keystroke combinations. To assign keystrokes, use the following convention:

•	Use the % sign to indicate the Alt button.

•	Use the ^ sign to indicate the Ctrl (Control) button.

•	Use the + sign to indicate the Shift button.

So, under KlickBoard's convention, the keystroke Alt, Edit, Paste, will be: %EP

Similarly, the keystroke Alt, Edit, Paste, New will be: %EPN

To change the keystroke, select the item from the dropdown list and type the keystrokes in the textbox on the left.

In the lower half of this tab are the Klickboard Memory options:

•	On the left, you enter the number of clipboard items to 'remember'.

•	On the right side is a warning box - this is because the the textbox on Klickboard Preview panel can only hold 10,000 characters. Any clipboard contents in excess of this will be truncated. However, Klickboard can retain the entire Klickboard contents of huge clipboard data.

Predefined Fields Tab

Here you can enter frequently used clips of text for fast insertion into documents.

Select an empty slot from the drop down list and enter the title ( a short description of the item, eg. My Address), in the textbox on the right and enter the full text in the textbox entitled Text Clip. You can assign upto five text clips.

Overview

Often when using Windows, you select text or pictures and copy them to Windows clipboard for fast insertion elsewhere in the document. However, Windows clipboard is by its very nature destructive: it destroys previously stored clipboard items when new data enters it. This has its advantages: it is simple to use and implement. However, Windows powerusers often make extensive use of clipboard may need to refer to previously copied items.

Klickboard is a utility designed to capture clipboard text and pictures while you  work. It permanently stores the clipboard data on disk and allows for retrieval at a later date. KlickBoard features:

•	complete control over the number of clipboard items stored.

•	KlickBoard can paste multiple clipboard items consecutively. In addition, it can paste and add link text.

•	KlickBoard has slots where you can define text which can be quickly pasted to any document.
