Page Description

Use Text Shortcuts to add or edit text shortcuts throughout Copia. Text Shortcuts must be enabled by the user on the Application page before they can be used. The checkbox setting Use Text Shortcuts can be found on the Application page located under the General Settings section. The checkbox is disabled by default. Once Text Shortcuts are enabled, users can trigger them by typing into text fields that accept Text Shortcuts.

Upon typing a Text Shortcut's Shortcut Key, the Text Shortcut will be triggered. If the Text Shortcut's Shortcut Text did not contain any Variable field codes, the Shortcut Text will instantly replace the Shortcut Key, updating the non-Variable field codes automatically. If the Shortcut Text contains a Variable field code, an Update Text Shortcut Variables pop-up will open. The Shortcut Text will be displayed, including updated non-Variable field codes, as read-only text. Input fields will be displayed in place of the Variable field codes. Text Input Variable field codes will be replaced with a text input field. Drop-down Variable field codes will be replaced with a drop-down menu containing the options set up in the field code. The pop-up has Save and Cancel buttons. Upon clicking Save, the Text Shortcut's Shortcut Key will be replaced with the updated Shortcut Text from the pop-up. Variables that were left blank on the pop-up will be removed from the updated Shortcut Text. Upon clicking Cancel, the pop-up will close and the Text Shortcut's Shortcut Key will be replaced with the Shortcut Text from the pop-up as if all of the variable responses were left blank.

If Text Shortcuts are enabled, users can open a Text Shortcut List pop-up by typing "/help" (no quotes) in any text field that accepts Text Shortcuts. The Text Shortcut List pop-up has the same filter and table as seen on the Text Shortcut List page. Users may insert a Text Shortcut by clicking the link text in the table. This triggers the Text Shortcut as if the Shortcut Key was typed into the field used to open the pop-up (the field in which the user typed "/help"). Selecting a Text Shortcut from the pop-up will close the pop-up, even if the selected Text Shortcut opens the Update Text Shortcut Variables pop-up. See the Admin: Text Shortcuts topic for information on how to create Text Shortcuts.
