True Connect allows information to be shared between the device
and PC by supporting Copy/Cut and Paste. This is a useful feature for
easily creating new information on the device,
or, copying already stored information on the device to your PC.
Additionally, you can also use Cut/Copy/Paste to share information
between applications on the device.
If using a Touch-Screen device True connect offers the ability to enable or disable clipboard sharing. See Clipboard Sharing.

There is no concept of highlighting text to Cut/Copy on a non Touch Screen device, therefore performing a Copy or a Cut on the device will copy the entire contents of the edit field that currently has the focus. |
To Cut/Copy/Paste information from the device to the PC:
- Move the mouse pointer onto the device.
- Navigate to the editable field that you wish to Cut/Copy text from.
- Use Ctrl-C to Copy or Ctrl-X to Cut
- all of the text in the edit field if using a non Touch Screen Device,
- the highlighted text if using a Touch Screen Device. Alternatively Ctrl-A can be used to highlight all the text of the current field.
- Move the mouse pointer onto the PC and navigate to the location the text should be pasted.
- Use Ctrl-V to Paste the text in the clipboard to the PC. The text you copied/cut from the device will now appear on the PC.
