Request: Selective History Deletion #33

Closed whitverj closed 4 years ago

whitverj commented 5 years ago

Clearing the history is currently all-or-nothing. Sometimes you might copy/paste sensitive information that you don't want retained, but you want to maintain other items in your history. Being able to selectively remove items from Clipy's history would be a wonderful addition to the app.

Thank you for taking over this project; I'm very glad to see it's still alive (just upgraded from ClipMenu 0.4.3).

@whitverj Good suggestion. I am not sure that the NSMenu support multi-selection or not. Do you have any research on it?

@whitverj as a delete-one-item workaround you can set the following in Beta Preferences:

And then just control click on an entry and it's gone.

That could delete item one by one.

@whitverj Do you mean the batch deletion feature?

I think the preference listed above would probably do the job - as long as one doesn't get too many items in the history before remembering to clear them out.
