I skipped through the video a couple of weeks ago and it looked like it was exactly what I was looking for. I’ve come back today to take another gander and the link to the video isn’t working any more :(

Has it been taken off intentionally? Does anyone have a copy or know if it’s mirrored anywhere?

Thumbs up mate, much appreciated. You’ve just saved me a whole lot of time, key-presses and mouse clicks. My joints thank you!

Hi could you please tell me how to create a trigger for the shelf? The default triggers for the Clipboard and Shelf only work when I’m at the QS application, and I want them to work in any application. Thanks

So when I invoke Quicksilver and type “cli” for Clipboard History, the default item is Search Contents. If I tab to the default item and type “s”, it changes to Show. How can I get Show to show up by default after typing “cli” without needing to hit Tab and then type out “show”?

First off, thanks for all the great work you during the screencasts! Your help has definitely made the Quicksilver experience better. Unfortunately…I need some help on the clipboard.

I have both the Clipboard Module and Shelf Module installed. Strangely enough, the ‘Shelf and Clipboard’ option doesn’t appear in the catalogue which makes it tough to access clipboard history and other stuff.

What can I do to fix this? I rescanned my library and also tried to reinstall the plugins. Thanks for all the great work, it’s a lifesaver!

back a year ago (almost—October 2006) you published a nifty screencast for using QS and the clipboard. In one segment you show dragging and dropping in the actions section to change the numerical priority of actions. You mention that double click/type in new number doesn’t work well for you. Well, it doesn’t work for me either; unfortunately, neither does drag and drop: I just get everything between the selection and the direction I’m dragging in to “select”, that is, blue background. No drop at all. Can you think of a reason for this, or, better, a fix? I’m using QS B51 (3800). Thank you. Your work is great, and helpful. Fred Weiner
