| Clipboards: When you interact with CPU software, you have access to two different clipboards unique to the Java simulators: CPU Java Clipboard: Shared by all CPU simulators, Portfolio Idea Container, and the Graphics Applet during any single session of Internet Explorer. This clipboard is used by the graphics functions Paste and Snapshot, the Image Palette, and the Copy to Clipboard function on the Screen and Eye View windows. Editing Clipboard: Each simulator has its own, unique Editing Clipboard. Only simulator edit functions, including copy, cut, and paste (not the same as the graphic Paste function), use this clipboard. You may access these editing functions through the keyboard or the standard menu. In addition, you have access to your computer's System Clipboard, which is used by most of the applications you run. These include programs you may use in conjunction with the CPU pedagogy, such as Microsoft Word and screen snapshot programs like HyperSnap (for the PC) and SnapzPro (for the Mac). Pictures taken by the Snapshot tool get placed on both the CPU Java Clipboard and the System Clipboard. Thus, you can paste an image from the Java simulators into other applications like Microsoft Word. However, the graphics Paste tool does NOT have access to the System Clipboard. Thus, you cannot directly paste an image from another program (such as Microsoft Word) into CPU Java simulators. To paste a picture into the Java simulators, you must use the Image Palette. The simulator edit functions (see the keyboard edit functions) use ONLY the Editing Clipboard. For example, you CANNOT paste text directly from Word into a text box in a CPU simulator.
