THE USER GUIDE · FIVE-MINUTE READ

One gesture.
Here's everything around it.

How to fill, how to read the panel, and how to teach it — the whole daily craft.

Prefer to learn by doing? Take Flight School. Five hands-on missions in your browser — press the real hotkey, fix a real mismatch, earn your clearance. About five minutes.
1 · The gesture

Copy. Click the form. Ctrl+Shift+V.

  • Copy the source — select text and Ctrl+C, copy a PDF file, or take a screenshot. Whatever you'd naturally copy.
  • Click into the destination form — browser or desktop app, wherever you're working.
  • Press Ctrl+Shift+V — the review panel appears. Nothing has been written yet.

If another program owns that combo, TroveFill takes the next free one — Ctrl+Shift+B, Ctrl+Shift+D, then Ctrl+Alt+V. Hover the tray icon: its tooltip always names the combo in effect.

Gold fills. Red waits for you — with the reason written on the row.
  • WILL FILL — read clearly from your document. The exact value is shown before it goes anywhere.
  • YOU TYPE THIS — not in the document, or a judgment call. Left blank on purpose, reason on the row.
  • Keys: Enter fills · Esc cancels with nothing written · arrow keys walk the rows.
  • If the fill stops partway — the form window lost focus. That's a safety guard, not a fault: nothing gets typed into a window you aren't looking at. Refocus, press the hotkey again.
3 · Sensitive values

A full SSN always waits for you.

Even when TroveFill reads a Social Security Number perfectly, it will not enter it. The value appears amber — CHECK & TYPE — for your eyes: you verify it, and you type it yourself. A conscious human step on the most sensitive data, every time.

your pick fills it — and teaches itFill
Every value from your document becomes a chip. One click fixes now and next time.
  • This time: the field fills with your choice.
  • Next time: the row comes pre-matched on this form. A new lesson stays provisional until it proves itself once more — a slip can't become a habit.
  • What's stored: which field means what — field names only, never customer values.
5 · The tray

Your two settings live by the clock.

  • Start with Windows — check it and TroveFill is ready the moment you log in.
  • Paste hotkey — pick the combo you like; the current one is checked.
  • Double-click the icon to bring TroveFill forward; hover it and the tooltip names the active hotkey.

7 · If something's off

Three things, three fixes.

The hotkey does nothing

Another app owns the combo and TroveFill fell back to the next one — hover the tray icon to see which. Or pick your own in the tray menu.

A form it's never seen

It still helps by reading the field labels; unsure rows wait for you. It gets sharper the first time you correct it.

The fill stopped partway

The form window lost focus — that's the safety guard. Click back into the form and press the hotkey again.
