I absolutely love the dedication of Paul to his users and the app. This topic demonstrates it so well: not only does he take the time to create an action AND screenshots to answer the user's question, but he also goes the extra mile and implements a new function (the "tooldata$" variable) to make it even easier for his user. It's a rare sight these days to see a software developer so caring and devoted like this. Thank you, Paul. I knew my purchase was in good hands.

How do I use this with any text (like you said)? It seems to only accept websites.

Once you go wide, you'll never go back!

Can confirm. I never knew I needed this! The default width is positively tiny and useless, especially when pasting long text in it.

Understood. The reason I asked, though, is that holding down Alt and dragging the mouse on a web page is good way to select text that can't normally be copied, so I was hoping I could use a different key to Alt.

I really like the Alt+LMB drag feature to move windows by clicking them anywhere, but what about making it work for keys other than Alt? Like as a hotkey for an action?

I only found out tilde was a newline by accident in the help for a different command

Can this be changed, actually? The tilde character isn't exactly unique and can be used in normal text a lot. I think it should be changed to something less common. It doesn't really look like a newline character either.

I discovered today that the Speech Recognition in Control Panel menu doesn't work when selected. It used to before. It also has a question mark for its icon.

This is how you know a software developer cares: only 5 hours from bug report to bug fix, and new version direct to the bug reporter as a special private build!

Paul, I assume this means we'll all get the updated version soon?

I totally overlooked the Action Wizard option to save all window states. Thanks for the heads-up, Paul.

Don't worry about him, Paul. I for one love the constant updates and dedication.

Very cool! I now use this tip as a kind of "boss key" so I can swipe to an empty desktop when I want to hide my windows.

Great tip! This would also be useful for sharing files as text in Reddit posts and things like that. Interesting concept.

You can actually filter any list by using the format /# for the filter, where # is the number of items to show

What the heck... you really do think of everything.

I had no idea you could filter screenshots from an action. Will be using this a LOT.

I use States just to position my app windows, rather than launch and position them. I just right-click the system tray icon of Toolbox and pick the state to restore. Each state has only "Restore layouts of listed items" checked, with the other options unchecked. Makes it quick and simple to move everything where I want them.
