A real editor.
Not just a text box.

Every clipping and note opens in the same full editor: a real formatting toolbar, tables and checklists, live dynamic tokens, a pop-out window for longer edits, and a running word and character count, the whole time you're writing.

The same editor, every clipping and note

A full formatting toolbar,
not a stripped-down text field.

Everything you'd expect from a real document editor is right there in the toolbar: fonts, colors, headings, lists, alignment, and a few things most reusable-text tools skip entirely.

Full formatting toolbar

Bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, font family and size, text and highlight color, headings, blockquotes, alignment, indent, and numbered or bulleted lists.

Change case, after the fact

Select any text and switch it to UPPERCASE, lowercase, Sentence case, Title Case, or iNVERTED cASE from one menu, without retyping it.

Paste Special

Right-click while pasting for Paste as Plain Text, or Paste Special to paste already converted to a specific case.

Code blocks

A dedicated code-block format for commands and snippets, press Enter twice on a blank line to step back out of it.

For when a clipping outgrows the sidebar

Pop it out
into its own window.

Any clipping or note can open in a real, separate OS window: the exact same editor and toolbar, just without the sidebar and list crowding the space. Useful for a longer template, a draft you're actively rewriting, or simply wanting more room while you work.

1. In the main window
Sidebar, list, and editor sharing the space

Click Pop Out on any clipping or note.

2. In its own window
Same toolbar, no sidebar in the way

The main window's copy goes read-only while it's popped out.

Only one place editing a given clipping is ever active at once, so a popped-out window and the main window can never silently overwrite each other's changes.

More than plain text and formatting

The Insert menu:
tables, checklists, and live tokens.

Beyond ordinary formatting, the Insert menu adds structure and content that updates itself, right from the toolbar.

Date & Time

Stamps the current date and time as fixed text, right now, once.

Table

A real HTML table with adjustable rows and columns, not tab-separated text pretending to be one.

Checklist

Checklist items with actual clickable checkboxes, not typed dashes or brackets.

Image

Insert a small image inline, stored with the clipping itself (roughly 300 KB limit per image).

Special character

A picker for symbols and characters you wouldn't want to hunt through a keyboard shortcut list for.

Dynamic snippet

A separate submenu of live tokens: date, time, clipboard contents, an auto-incrementing counter, a unique ID, a random choice, or a fill-in field.

More about Dynamic Snippets
Know what's inside before you open it

Hover a row.
See it fully formatted.

Hover any clipping or note in the list for a moment and Klackey shows its real, rich-formatted first few lines, bold, links, structure and all, not just the plain-text snippet already visible in the row. Often enough to confirm it's the right one without opening it at all.

While you're writing, not after

A running word
and character count.

The editor keeps a live word and character count visible the whole time you're writing, useful for anything with a length limit, a character-count field, or a reply you're deliberately trying to keep short.

Questions, answered

Good to know.

What's the difference between Date & Time and the dynamic date token?+

Date & Time in the Insert menu stamps today's date once, as fixed text, right when you insert it. The dynamic date token (under Insert → Dynamic snippet) is a live placeholder instead: it gets recomputed fresh every time that clipping or note is later expanded, so a template you built last month still shows today's date when you use it now.

Can I edit a long clipping or note in its own window?+

Yes. Pop out any clipping or note into its own real window, full toolbar included, separate from the sidebar and list. The version in the main window becomes read-only while it's popped out, so there's exactly one place editing it at a time, never two windows silently overwriting each other's changes.

Does Klackey show me what's inside a clipping before I open it?+

Yes. Hover any row in the list for a moment and Klackey shows its actual rich-formatted first few lines, not just the plain-text snippet already visible in the row, so you can often tell it's the right one without opening it at all.

Does the editor show a word or character count?+

Yes, updated live as you type, right in the editor.

Can I paste something without picking up the source formatting?+

Yes. Right-click while pasting for "Paste as Plain Text," or use "Paste Special" to paste text already converted to a specific case (UPPERCASE, lowercase, Sentence case, Title Case, or iNVERTED cASE) in one step.
