Hi there,
as there is a BitsDuJour offer for UR today I am seriously considering to buy a copy.
As I wrote some time ago one of the most important features for me is a quick and easy way to capture web pages while surfing.
I found out how I can copy and autopaste content to UR, but is there a quick way to grab a complete webpage without having to mark it first? RightNote has a shortcut and Joplin has an intuitive way to do the same. What’s the quickest way to do this trick in UR?

Thanks a lot

You can do this using the Ultrarecall extension for IE, or the UR extension for old, pre-Quantum versions of Firefox.

However, as a practical matter you’re probably better performing a copy and paste from Chrome; this admittedly entails more steps, but it’s faster, and often provides higher quality and smaller info items (without all sorts of extraneous and unwanted junk).

BTW, keep in mind that with UR you can edit web pages after you save them, which can often be quite useful.
