Read on to learn what's new in Clippings for Thunderbird 5.7, things you should know about it, and how to get it.
What's New
- Compatible with Thunderbird 68
- You can now choose how you want the date or time to be formatted for the $[DATE] and $[TIME] placeholders; for example, the date with the day of the week included, or the time given in the 24-hour clock. To add a formatted date or time placeholder to your clipping, open Clippings Manager, turn on the Placeholder Toolbar (Tools → Show/Hide menu), then from the toolbar, click Presets and select Formatted Date/Time
- Special characters (question mark, parentheses, quotation marks, asterisk, common currency symbols, etc.) can now be used in default values for placeholders. Note that the pipe symbol (|), curly braces ({}) and square brackets([]) cannot be used.
Known Issues
- When creating a clipping from the New Clippings dialog and selecting a destination folder, the new clipping may appear under the top-level Clippings folder instead of the selected folder.
- In Clippings Manager, when moving or copying a clipping or folder to another folder, the tree list won't automatically expand to show the new location of the clipping or folder.
Things You Should Know About
- Rearranging clippings and folders in Clippings Manager by drag and drop in the clippings tree is currently not working. Instead, use the Move toolbar button to select a folder to move or copy to, or right-click and select the Cut, Copy and Paste menu options. To rearrange items within a folder, select the folder, click the Arrange toolbar button, then in the dialog that appears, you can use drag and drop to arrange the items in the selected folder.
- To display the extension preferences dialog, open Clippings Manager, then select Tools → Options. The Clippings preferences dialog is not accessible from Add-ons Manager.
- If a shortcut key is assigned to a synced clipping, and the shortcut key assignment conflicts with another clipping, the synced clipping will lose its assigned key in favor of the other clipping.
