1.   Setup A New Category: 

      You can categorize your clip information by categories. 
To create a new category selects "New Category" from the Categories menu. Or  click the button from Main  Toolbar
Then ClipManager will call the Category Manager for you to finish setup, you can setup the Category’s name, the rules and filters that let you automatically categorize incoming clips. Based upon keywords in the text, the program that you copied them from, or their location on the Internet, you can file them automatically in the appropriate folders for instant retrieval.
For example, you can setup a new category named Stock, and you can setup keywords to make clips saved to this category when its text contains Stock, or these clips are copied from www.stockmarket.com.

 

2.      Capturing Clips

To capture a clip to store in ClipManager, all you have to do is highlight the text   or image in question and copy it to the clipboard (to select the whole thing you can use CTRL-A).  This is usually done by pressing CTRL-C, or Edit|Copy.   The item will then be placed either in the default ClipManager Clip History  or another category if any rules have been set up that the item matches.  You can avoid capturing some clips by using hotkey: CTRL-Q.

 

3.      Grab offline web page with formatting.

     If the clip is copy from Internet Explorer, you can click the HTML tag (under the text box) to view the html format (text only), and if you want to grab web page complete with formatting (including graphics, Flash, midi, java...), you can click from the Web Toolbar, or you can use keystroke: Ctrl-G, then all things in the offline web page will restore and the integrated web page will be shown in ClipManager.  
Note: You can finish this step offline, even in a few days after you copy, that duration depends on your cache size of Internet Explorer, you can setup it in  Internet Option|Tools from  IE menu.

 

 

4.   Manage clip items 

      You can drag and drop the items (To Multi-Select you can select the items while pressing the Shift key or Ctrl key) to a category if the items haven' t been categorized. If the items had been categorized, you could not drag it from Clip History, but you can drag it from its category to other categories.
