irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nucs/BetterClipboard/main/install.ps1 | iexYour newest copy first. With pinned items listed first (the default), Win+V used to select the top pin, so
Win+V Enter could paste something you pinned weeks ago.
- The panel now selects your newest copy, right below the pins.
↑goes to the lowest pin, then up through the
others. - The same after a search, in every tab and in your groups: the first item below the pinned ones is selected, and
Enterright after typing pastes it. - With Show pinned items first off, the newest item is at the top and is selected, as before. A list of nothing but
pins, like the Pinned tab, starts on its top pin.Ctrl+1…Ctrl+9still count from the top.
Where the panel opens. Settings › Shortcut › Panel position is now right under your shortcuts (it was under
Pasting), with four choices:
- Next to the text cursor: the default, as before.
- Next to the mouse.
- Center of the main screen (new).
- Center of the current screen: the screen you are typing on, or after a click on the desktop, the screen with the
mouse. A centered panel is centered with its groups column.
Use in the README has the details.
Tabs that wait for content. The Run tab now shows up with your first command from Win+R, and the Snipping tab
with your first screenshot from Snipping Tool or Win+PrtScn. Each goes away with its last item, and if you used it
last, the panel opens in it again once it is back.
Arrange the tabs. Right-click a tab:
- Move left and Move right move it one place among the tabs you see. All always stays first.
- Hide tab takes the tab out of the row. Only the tab goes: its switch in Settings › Integrations stays on, and
BetterClipboard keeps gathering for it. - Hide tab & clipboard rows also takes its items out of every list, except items in a group; the footer
counts them. - Show all hidden brings them back, also from a right-click on the tabs' empty space.
- Your order and your hidden tabs are kept, also after a restart.
A Notepad++ tab. BetterClipboard now keeps what Notepad++ forgets, and the
files you open in it:
- The text of its unsaved "new" tabs, read from Notepad++'s own backup once you stop typing in a tab for a minute. A
small edit updates the tab's item where it is; once more than a fifth of its text is gone, the old version stays
and the new text becomes a new item. The card names the tab, also after you rename it. - The full path of every file you open in Notepad++, as if you had copied it. Opening it again later moves it to the
top. The files Notepad++ reopens by itself when it starts don't count. - Two switches in Settings › Integrations, both on. BetterClipboard only reads Notepad++'s files, and asks only a
Notepad++ signed by its makers. Notepad++ in the README has the
details.
Settings.
- A search box at the top (
Ctrl+F) keeps only the settings that match what you type, with the matching letters
marked. It finds a setting by a few of its letters (clpbrd) and forgives a typo. - Every integration's card has Delete stored…: it shows what BetterClipboard stored from it, with counts and the
newest examples, and deletes only what you tick. Cancel is the default, and the source's own files and lists
are never touched. - The first time it starts after the update, BetterClipboard asks which language you want.
Settings › App › Language changes it later.
Fixed
- On PCs whose monitors use different scaling (say 100 % and 125 %), the panel came out too large or too small
whenever it opened on a monitor with other scaling than the time before, 25 % too large one way and 20 % too small
the other, and a panel too large could run off the screen. It now opens at your size on every monitor. - Center of the screen (now Center of the current screen) could open the panel on another monitor after a click
on the desktop. It now opens on the screen with the mouse. - Turning Show pinned items first on or off now takes effect at the next
Win+V. Before, the panel kept the old
order until your next copy. - Dragging a tab (Files, ShareX or any other) and letting go somewhere else left it grayed out, and after a drag with
the right mouse button it stopped reacting to clicks. Now a tab lets go of the press when the pointer leaves it. - Installing or updating no longer fails while another program still holds one of BetterClipboard's leftover files.
The installer now sets them aside and deletes them once nothing holds them.
