It would be insanely great if Scrapbook would synchronize between hosts automatically--such as via a DropBox folder. I move between Macs throughout the day and don't like having to manually send/receive clippings. If I need a clipping from earlier in the day, I just want it to be there--no manual interaction, no hunting for which scrapbook it's on. Often a clipping I need is even on a Mac that's powered down.

Of course if a cloud storage service like DropBox is to be used, clippings must be strongly encrypted with a private key to keep even DropBox administrators' eyes out.

Thanks for your reply. Cloud-Synchronization as well as encryption is already on our to-do list ;)

Scrapbook is the most full-featured clipboard manager I have come across. It works well, their customer support is excellent, and the price is right (free, at least when I got it). I recommend it!

I appreciate Scrapbook a lot, but I am afraid I need some help understanding something. I can't figure out how to actually use the filters. I've read the Scrapbook help, which gives an example of a filter, and it's pretty obvious what they are supposed to do (reverse the characters in a string, for example) - but I've been clicking, copying, and pasting in various combinations for 45 minutes trying to get that to work, and I have not been able to get a string to reverse even once!

Can you please give me an example of how to actually apply a filter? As in, what needs to be highlighted, what needs to be left-clicked / right-clicked, where should the reversed string be visible, etc.

Thanks!

Hi Mithralas, to use a filter you have two options:
1. you can click on the menubaricon and go to Filter and choose for example the Reverse filter from the Strings folder. This will reverse the FIRST clip of your scrapbook.
2. or you open the Scrapbook window, right mouse click on one of your clips and choose Filter->Strings->Reverse.
When the filter is finished it will create a new clip in the Scrapbook. Hope this helps? If you still have problems please send an email to "support[at] ariessolutions .de" Thanks a lot.

Update, about 2 weeks after my original post: The response from Aries did not resolve the problem I was having, so I contacted them by email as they suggested in their reply. They were VERY responsive to my concerns. As it turned out, I had uncovered a bug. Within a week, I noticed an updated version of Scrapbook on the Mac app store, which fixed the bug. I was very impressed with the interest they showed in pursuing my problem, and with their swift resolution of it. This is what excellent customer support looks like.

I love this app. Great start. I love the convenience of having snippets directly available in the same window as clippings. Javascript text filters are interesting to have available too. A user-defined hotkey will be a welcome addition.

Also, the ability to exclude certain apps from copy/cut capture would be handy. Perhaps there could even be a hot key available for cut/copy without including in the clippings list. (like option-cmd-c or -x)

Anyway, I'm enjoying this.

I take that back—Scrapbook does already have tha bility to ignore clipboard events from specific apps. I just wasn't looking close enough.

Seems quite good - but where's the keyboard shortcut to open the Scrapbook?

I looked everywhere and can't find any shortcut or a way to configure a shortcut. This is a HUGE omission, it basically makes the app completely unusable; doing stuff with mouse alone is awful.

I tried configuring a shortcut myself using the standard Keyboard->Applications shortcut, assigning a key to the Open menu of Scrapbook, but it didn't work. The Open menu showed my shortcut against it, but pressing the shortcut didn't open Scrapbook.

I'll look at this app again when it has proper keyboard support; it needs a shortcut to open the scrapbook window, and then keyboard/shortcut support to quick-select the paste entries (at least the first 10 or so, e.g. Command-1, Command-2, etc)

Please have a look in the Scrapbook Help. Right now you can only use ctrl+alt+c to toggle the Scrapbook Window. We will integrate self defined hotkeys in a later version. Thanks

Thanks ARIES for the fast response. That's slightly better to know that there is a keyboard shortcut.

But, after bringing up the window and hitting enter on a paste, nothing happens. It's not pasted into my current window, even though I have "Paste clip on cursor position after selection" selected. So I don't see how I get the scrap book entries pasted into my app? I suppose I have to select the scrapbook item, then do a separate paste with Cmd-V - this is annoying.

Even worse - after bringing up Scrapbook with Ctl-Alt-C, the focus is lost from the window I was on!

So these are the keys I must use to paste a clip from Scrapbook:

1. Control-Alt-C
2. Tab to get down to the list of scraps
3. Arrow-keys to highlight one I want
4. Enter (or Cmd-Enter, it makes no difference)
5. Alt-tab back to the window that is no longer focused
6. Cmd-V to paste

You can see that this is not really usable.

Note that I tried Cmd-Enter on a clip and that did not paste it either, and I still lost focus on the window I was on (Chrome). This must be a bug?

I think your app looks good, but it seems to need some usability fixes to make it worthwile using, right now it seems clunky and buggy.

Thanks

I just downloaded Scrapbook again after several months.

Great to see that the shortcut stuff has been added, and done very well.

I think that Scrapbook is now going to become my clipboard history manager - it's now definitely better than the Alfred one I used before.

Great job!
