So for example, when I double-click on a bin that contains a URL, it automatically opens the URL in my Safari web browser. You can assign hotkey combinations for numerous actions, including: You can also assign a hotkey combination to what is called the “Invoke Hot Key Operation” which basically invokes a floating pallet of iClip actions that you select and trigger one of over a dozen functions. I also can use a KM macro to quickly clear all the Recorder simply by typing the assigned string trigger, “clearbin”, which triggers the assigned hotkey for that iClip action. For example, I can quickly toggle the Recorder set by clicking on the bottom-left corner of my Magic trackpad.

Since I’m not good at remembering hotkeys or keyboard shortcuts, I’ve mapped some of my iClip hotkeys to BetterTouchTool finger gestures and Keyboard Maestro (KM) string triggers.

Depending on the content of the clipping, you can right-click on a bin, you can paste the clipping or copied image back to the Mac clipboard, or to the Finder (if it’s a copied image or movie file.) IClip contains dozens of actions beyond just pasting selected clippings. The Recorder captures all your clippings you make on your computer. In some supporting applications, you can also select and drag text to an open bin, or replace the contents of a bin with a new clipping. In the video below, you can see how I use the text selection utility, PopClip to quickly copy text, and then the iClip Recorder automatically captures. The Recorder captures all new clippings, while the clipping sets permantly retain clippings that you add to them. The iClip interface consist of two main parts, the Recorder and clipping sets. There’s also an option to automatically show and hid iClip - a handy feature for say laptop screens, or if you just want the application to remain completely out of the way until you need it. The iClip interface can also float anywhere on your screen, making it useful for selecting and pasting several clippings into a document. You can also toggle off the recording to not capture copies you make. So when you copy selected text by any method it automatically gets added to the Recorder of iClip. IClip consist of a collection of bins and clipping sets that can retain all your copied text and even images. For me iClip serves as both a clipboard manager and notebook of clippings. IClip remains visible, but unobtrusively parked and ready to use on the left side of my desktop for when I need it. IClip is an application that you can access from the menu bar or from a designated part of your desktop. Related article.Outlinely and OutlineEdit Make For Better Outlining On the Mac
