So, with 'Restore the clipboard' option enabled, you can store 11 clipboard items, because Windows' native clipboard controls Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V are not affected Minimize the application to the tray, or stick it on top of other windows from the Options menu.īut wait, how do you delete a clipboard slot's contents? Exit the program, and all data stored in the slots is deleted.Īnd now for the cons. So, Ctrl + V will paste the text from Ctrl + C, while Alt + 1 will have the 2nd sentence. This time, the contents of both clipboards are preserved. Restore the Clipboard is enabled, and we repeat the same steps. Regardless of whether you use Ctrl + V or Alt + 1, the same sentence will be added at the cursor position, meaning the original contents of Ctrl + C is over-written. The 2nd copy command (Ctrl + 1) sends the content that it copied to Windows' clipboard. Restore the Clipboard is disabled, and we use Ctrl + C for saving the first line, and then use Ctrl + 1 for the other. This sentence is copied to MultiClipboardSlots. This line is copied to the Windows Clipboard. The 'Restore the clipboard' option in the menu is quite important. Don't like that?
