Dudes - I know it's been forevs since an upgrade to Clipboard Manager, so last weekend I spent my Saturday on good ol' CM. I added this really cool little animated character to the clip list... so every time you copy something onto your clipboard, he pops up and asks what you want to do. I call him 'Clippy'.

But in all seriousitivity, the cool new addition for Clipboard Manager is the intellisense-like popup of your last 10 clip entries, with the item count configurable.

This list of your recent clip entries is triggered by a keyboard command. The default is set to [ctrl + alt + v]. You can change this to whatever you want (and you might have to if the default keyboard binding is already in use). If you do, search for "DisplayClipboardPopupList" in the "Show commands Containing" box to find the right command. Then just bind whatever keyboard shortcut you want for this.

You can set the amount of clips that show in the list using the general options (Tools > Options > Clipboard Manager > User Settings. The default is set to 10.

what font are you using in visual studio? your screenshots always look extremely clear but my screen looks plain and miserable :(

The screenshot of the popup is Segoe UI - the default font in Vista. The actual code font is Consolas

mmm im using vista ultimate and it looks completely different! maybe i changed something! thanks for pointing them out though!

Awesome! Thanks a lot. This will definitely come in handy :)

Any chance of making the default insertion point the end of the string that's just been inserted?

I'll explain a bit more clearly, when you paste something using the intellisense it puts the cursor at the beginning of the inserted text, any chance this can be the end?

Just a small but very useful chage.

Hey Edward,

I'll definitely see if that's possible. I'll add this to the list next time I crack open this project.

Cheers,
Bobby

Thanks, very useful blog by the way.

Does support VS2008 Beta2

Nope, not yet.

Great tool!!!
Maybe you can allow assigning name for separate clipboard item. It is easier, when you want something to paste, to check name, then checking clipboard context

How do you invoke it?

After installing it, i see it in the options of VS, but nothing happens when I copy/paste?

Quality tool by the way. Is there going to be a version for VS 2008?

Thanks,
CB

could you make it on all the system, like this tool xNeat

Hi,
I'm getting load package failures with this addin in VS2005 whenever i open a solution. Any ideas?

Cheers

One thing that I tried to do instinctively was double click an item, expecting it to insert at the cursor position. I found myself constantly swtiching focus back and forth from the file to the clipboard tool. Is there a way to do this?
