I get "Error: Menu Item name too long" when there is a long entry in the history and I invoke FIFO paste #26

I have started getting this message "Error: Menu Item name too long" when there is a long copied entry and I invoke FIFO paste. This has started happening since I upgraded from v1.100 to v1.109 recently. I am uploading the screenshot. This is quite an annoying error because I have to go into Search and delete long entries in order to have CL3 FIFO working again. In any case, CL3 is a terrific clipboard manager, extremely useful. And I have tried quite a few. So thank you very much for developing it!

That shouldn't happen of course,

Could you check the Settings (via tray menu) and see if MenuWidth is set, and to what value? It should default to 40, but perhaps it has a too a value:

You could double check this by opening the settings.ini in notepad and see what it is set too.

If I set it to something like 500 I do get a similar error, so I have to build in a safety check.

You can try v1.110: Add minimum (20) and maximum value (100) for MenuWidth setting (safety check) ...

Thank you for the quick response and the fix! You are right, I had a large value in the Menu width setting, I don't even know why. Anyway, fixed and working supeb!
