How to Use the Translator Prompt Manager

Example Custom Instructions
"Do the following for the different prompts I provide:
• Rephrase: reword the text to make it read better and more fluently, but always retain the core message.
• Correct: rectify the text for proper spelling and grammar in Dutch for the Netherlands.
• ..."
Next, trigger one of the preset prompts using the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+# (e.g. Ctrl+Shift+1 for Prompt 1). On a Mac use shortcut Command+Shift+#.
When you trigger the browser extension using the shortcut, it will insert one of the pre-configured prompts into the input field of your web-based AI assistant. You can then paste your copied text from the clipboard next to the prompt, and let the AI work its magic.
