===Browse to a record===
To find a record in one of the category list views, first switch to the appropriate category that provides the list of the desired records: People, Sources, Places, or Media. Then scroll to the the desired record. The focus of the active record for the category is changed by selecting a record. Simply scrolling the view does not change the active record focus.
By default, the list will be sorted on the first column of the tabular data. The for grouped (People) or hierarchical tree (Places) records, the first column is required to be the "Name" column. In the People, the grouping is based on the Preferred Surname. In the Places, the Grouping is based on the order of Enclosing Places.

The {{man label|Clipboard}} tool provides a temporary notepad to store database records for easy reuse during a single Gramps session eg: until you exit Gramps. In short, this is a sort of the copy-and-paste functionality extended from textual objects to other types of records used in Gramps. Clipboard makes extensive use of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag-and-drop ''drag and drop''] technique
To invoke the {{man label|Clipboard}}, either choose the menu {{man menu|Edit->Clipboard}} or click the Toolbar [[File:Gramps Clipboard48x48 win.png|24px]]{{man button|Clipboard}} button or use the [[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Keybindings#8|Keyboard shortcut (accelerator key)]] {{man key press|CTRL|B}}.
{{-}}
{{man label|Clipboard}} supports addresses, attributes (both personal and family), events (both personal and family), names, media objects references, citations, URLs, and of course textual information of notes and comments. To store any type of these records, simply drag the existing record on to the {{man label|Clipboard}} Pad from the corresponding editor dialog. To reuse the record, drag it from the Clipboard on to the corresponding place in the editor, e.g. Address tab, Attribute tab, etc.
{{man tip|Tip"Ref" clipboard objects include Shared Information|Some objects show a link icon in the left column and say 'ref' in the label. This indicates that dragging such selection will produce a reference to a shared object, not link the object itself. All the shared attributes will be replicated.For example, the media object file will not be duplicated. Instead, the reference will be made to an existing media object, which will result in the local gallery entry.}}
=== Clipboard context menu ===
Selecting a record using the the context menu (right click) will show the following three options for each record type:
