Snippets

The Snippets extension stores frequently reused text. Selecting a snippet from the launcher copies it to the clipboard and pastes it into the previous app by default. It is useful for email templates, code fragments, meeting notes, and other text you paste often.

What You Can Do

• Store up to 1,000 text snippets
• Search snippets from the launcher
• Add selected snippets as top-level shortcuts
• Paste a snippet directly from the launcher or copy it from the manager
• Reorder snippets in the desktop manager

How to Use

• Run SearchSnippets, press Space, and continue typing to filter snippets
• Press Enter on a result to copy its content to the clipboard and paste it into the previous app
• Run ManageSnippets to create, edit, delete, reorder, or copy snippets
• Mark frequently used snippets as shortcuts for one-step pasting from the launcher

Direct pasting

The Snippets extension setting “Paste directly” is enabled by default and applies to both search results and top-level shortcuts. Turn it off to make Enter only copy the snippet without automatically pasting it.

The copy button in the manager always copies to the clipboard without pasting.

Managing Snippets

Each snippet contains:

• Name - The label shown in Sliprail search results
• Content - The text copied to the clipboard
• Shortcut - Adds the snippet as a top-level launcher shortcut when enabled

Use descriptive names and remove unused items before reaching the 1,000-snippet limit.
