Save something you copied
Nothing is saved unless you accept. The hint doesn't appear for things you copy in Resurf.
Copy a link, an image, a PDF, a text file, or text of 80 characters or more in another app.
A hint appears near the top of the screen: Copied, with a preview.
Double-tap ⌥, or click Capture. Esc dismisses the hint, and it also leaves by itself after a few seconds.
The capture goes to the Inbox and the receipt appears. See After you save.
Change it or turn it off
In Settings → Capture → Copy:
- Copy hint turns the hint on or off. It's on by default.
- Trigger: Double-tap, the default, or Shortcut.
- Key: which key to double-tap. ⌥ (the default), ⌘, ⌃, ⇧ or fn.
- Shortcut: record your own combination when Trigger is set to Shortcut.
