Text Buttons

Having to work with the computer on a daily basis might mean you also have to do with text. Some scenarios require writing the same standard text form over and over again, and if you can’t copy it from somewhere, it easily becomes frustrating. Luckily, you can rely on applications like Text Buttons to solve this issue.

One thing needs to be mentioned before you start checking out the application’s features, which is portability. This means you can use it on other computers as well, directly from a USB flash drive, which comes in handy because you can also take notes with you. Moreover, the health status of the target PC is not affected, because registries are not a dependency.

On launch, the main window shows up with a large column filled with multiple empty buttons. There’s also a navigation bar that lets you easily switch through groups. These can be renamed, and the application supports quite a large number of different groups, each with its own unique entry.

Pressing a blank button brings up a creation window, where you get to fill in all details related to that button. A name can be given, so you know what it represents, while a large text field lets you either write down, copy from clipboard, or import a TXT file. When done, the main window updates accordingly.

Whenever you press a button that’s been configured, text stored inside gets sent to clipboard, so you can easily paste it where needed. It would have been useful to be able to set hotkey commands, but the paste function is quick enough as it is.

All things considered, we come to the conclusion that Text Buttons can be used as a powerful extension to the Windows clipboard. The amount of slots you can configure makes sure you never run out of space, and although hotkeys are not supported, the application is worth at least a try.
