Common Usage

Snippets

  • Email / report templates — Create snippet, abbreviation e.g. report; on trigger fill FillIn (date, project name, etc.) to generate the block. Less retyping, consistent format.
  • Code wrappers — try/except, async wrapper; abbreviation + Tab to insert; cursor at %c% to continue. Less boilerplate.
  • Prompts — Turn common prompts into snippets with FillIn; group by scenario (code gen, review, docs); in AI chat type abbreviation to expand full prompt. Reusable, iterable prompts.

See AI Programming Guide, AI Use Cases.

Screenshot & Annotation

  • Tutorial images — Region/window capture → arrows, highlight → background styling → copy to doc. Consistent look, fast.
  • Bug reports — Capture window or region → blur/mosaic sensitive parts → copy to colleague or Issue. Clear, safe.
  • Code review — Capture code area → arrows/numbers for issues → export or copy. Clear feedback.

Clipboard

  • Multiple copies — After copying several items, pick from clipboard history or favorites to paste. No more losing the previous copy.
  • Paste without format — Enable in Settings for plain-text paste. Clean when pasting from web/docs into code or notes.

(Clipboard history and favorites are Pro. See Clipboard.)
