This document describes the changes from version 1.0.1 to version 1.1. (Version 1.0.1 is described in the manual that is sent to registered users.)
Names for Scrapbook Items
Items in scrapbooks may now be given names. To edit names for items in scrapbooks, choose the “Show Name Editing” command from the Edit menu. A box will appear in the upper right area of the scrapbook window. Type or change the name appearing in this editing area. To remove this editing area, choose the “Hide Name Editing” command. Names of scrapbook items will appear in the item information area in the lower left portion of the scrapbook window.
A shortcut for the Show/Hide Name Editing command is to click in the item information area in the lower left portion of the window.
Clipboard windows created by copying from a scrapbook window will have the name of scrapbook item.
You may have the names of each scrapbook item appear below the corresponding “thumbnail” picture by setting the appropriate preference item (see below).
New Preferences
The “New Clip if Changed,” “Hide Clip in Background,” and “Stagger Clip from Scrap” commands have been removed from the File menu and placed in a preferences dialog, which can be invoked by the “Set Preferences…” command in the Edit menu. The following new preference items have been added:
1) Showing the System Scrapbook when ClipClop is launched is now optional.
2) You may choose an alternate scrapbook file to be shown whenever ClipClop is launched.
3) You may request that a new, blank Scrapbook window be opened whenever ClipClop is launched.
4) The name of each scrapbook item can (optionally) be shown beneath the corresponding “thumbnail” picture.
5) An “automatic paste” option may be selected that will cause the clipboard automatically to be pasted into the frontmost scrapbook whenever you switch from another program to ClipClop. (A keyboard command, Command-Shift-V, is available for toggling this option on and off.)
New Window Commands
There are four new commands in the Windows menu for organizing windows. “Tile Windows” arranges all the windows in a tiled pattern covering the main screen, “Stack Windows” changes all windows to the standard size and stacks them so the title bar of each window is visible. “Reverse Order” leaves the window sizes and positions unchanged, but puts the frontmost window all the way in the back, the second from the front to the second from the back position, etc. “Send to Back” sends the frontmost window behind all other open windows.
New File Commands
The system scrapbook file may be opened directly with a single command.
Any clipboard (not just text and pict clipboards) may be saved to a file.
An “Append to…” command has been added to the File menu, and is available whenever a clipboard of type TEXT is the frontmost window. The command allows you to append the text to an existing file of type TEXT.
Miscellaneous
Sound resources may be played by using the “Play Sound” command from the Edit menu, or by clicking the sound icon that now appears in the window when a sound resource is present.
When a scrapbook window is active, holding down the Option key and typing the left-arrow key will cause the first item in the scrapbook to be selected, and holding down the Option key and typing the right-arrow key will cause the last item in the scrapbook to be selected.
Additional command-key equivalents have been assigned to a number of menu commands.
Tab and shift-tab may be used to select the next and previous items in a scrapbook window; they are equivalent to the right and left cursor keys, except they may be used when when names are being edited.
