CLIPASSIST

Developed by CONTINUUM ID's Joel Sciamma and marketed by Inventor's Emporium, the following are extracts from ClipAssist's readme:

Free yourself from the limitations of the clipboard and move text around your Newton with ease!

New!
• Multiple pages can be created, renamed and deleted on all stores
• Fully supports styled text
• Type and Paste insertion modes
• Accelerated scrolling and autoscrolling when typing or writing
• Direct scroll to top or bottom of a page or to the caret
• Locked page indicator
• Select All

The ClipAssist window allows text selections to be dragged in
and out in a scrollable page which one of many.

ClipAssist augments your ability to move textual items from one location to another or one application to another via drag & drop by providing a small, floating & scrollable text area with multiple pages into which you can drag items which can then be pasted in one place or dragged out again into the fields of any slip.

Tremendously useful for adding contacts entered in the Notepad to your Names application, grabbing lots of small items from a Newton Book and pasting into a Works paper or spreadsheet, manipulating the contents of outlines and checklists or copying the contents of one slip or form to another - all without the tedious switching between applications.

ClipAssist supports multiple pages that can contain styled text,
autoscrolling of written or typed text, full drag and drop. Pages
can be renamed. Edit menu allows direct scrolling to the top,
bottom or caret position. Pages can be inserted at the caret with
styles or as if typed.

 

Comprehensive online help outline and Newton Book manual.

Compare this to the clipboard where you can only copy one block of text and are forced to then paste it all in one location!

ClipAssist fully supports handwriting recognition and editing gestures so can be used in concert with Works applications to enter small amounts of text such as annotations in drawings.

ClipAssist also saves all text to its own soup continuously as you work, supports undo for most operations and has online help and a Newton Book manual.
