Web clip

Web clip puts part of a web page in its own floating window, such as a table, a block of code or a chart. The window stays on top of other windows, even when you switch tabs or apps, so you can keep it in view while you read or work elsewhere.

Turn on web clip

Web clip is off by default. To use it, turn on "Web Clip" in Lumno's settings.

Clip part of a page

1. On the page you want to clip from, press ⌘Ctrl⇧ShiftK to open the command bar, type /clip, then press ↩Enter.

2. Move the pointer over the page. Lumno outlines the area it can clip with a dashed frame.
3. If the frame is too large or too small, scroll to change it. You can also press [ or ↑ to select the enclosing element, or ] or ↓ to select an element inside it.
4. Click the outlined content to open it in a floating window. To cancel, press Esc.

The floating window

• The window shows a copy of the content you chose. When that part of the original page changes, the window updates too.
• Clicking a link in the window opens it in a new browser tab. To open it in the background, hold ⌘Ctrl while you click.
• Move the pointer to the bottom of the window to show the Reselect and Close buttons.
• You can move and resize the window like any other window.

Limitations

Web clip is built on the browser's Document Picture-in-Picture, so it has these limitations:

• It works only on the top-level page of an HTTPS site, not inside embedded frames (iframes).
• It isn't available on sites that disable picture-in-picture through their policy.
• If a video is already playing in picture-in-picture, close it first.
• Areas that are too small can't float. Choose a larger area instead.
• Only one floating window can be open at a time.

Firefox doesn't support Document Picture-in-Picture, so this feature isn't available in the Firefox version.
