Launch Liquid then do '2' for Copy ('c' is used for Convert so '2' was chosen since it would be a double tap the '2' key after the shift-2 for '@') then choose from a command:

With Link

This command copies across the selected text along with the web link to the web page the selected text was on. This saves time when referring to text from a web page.

However, if this command is used on a page which is not a supported web browser (only Safari and Chrome support this functionality), or in an application which is not a web browser, such as Microsoft Word, then no web link will be appended.

As Citation

This command copies across the selected text along with the web link to the web page the selected text was on, as well as the domain and the date accessed, as a complete citation, ready for pasting into a document. This saves time when referring to text from a web page.

As above, if this command is used on a page which is not a supported web browser (only Safari and Chrome support this functionality), or in an application which is not a web browser, such as Microsoft Word, then no web link will be appended.

As Plain Text

Copies the selected text without any formatting (bold, italic and so on).

Sentences With

Select text and choose this command and Liquid will provide you with a dialog to type in a word or word.

When you hit 'Enter' Liquid will remove all sentences in your selected text which does not feature the text you typed and will display this in the Liquid results area (where Conversions and Translations appear).

You can choose to do command-c to copy the results. You won't have to select the results for this to work and Liquid will disappear when you do command-c so you will be ready to do command-v to paste immediately, should you so choose, with the result that you wil over-write your originally selected text (if this text was editable).

Flow

Flow is an experimental feature designed to make reading of dense passages easier.

When you choose Flow Liquid will add line breaks where it finds '.' (period) in the text, making the text more openend up, and will display this in the Liquid results area (where Conversions and Translations also appear).  

You can choose to do command-c to copy the results. You won't have to select the results for this to work and Liquid will disappear when you do command-c so you will be ready to do command-v to paste immediately, should you so choose, with the result that you wil over-write your originally selected text (if this text was editable).
