Search results table

This table shows a list of the clip-names all your clips, this list is filtered based on the current search term.
A line in this table contains:

• the shortcut key that can be used to paste the clip
• an icon that indicates if the clip originates from the clip or from your local clipboard history (if the client is active all local clips are being captured so they can be used and retrieved easily)
• the name of the clip
• the name of the project of the clip (if multiple projects are being searched)

• the name of the clip and the project of the clip (if multiple projects are being searched)
