feat: Display Reference Name instead of actual value #577

Most of us today do remote work and a lot of the time, we have video calls and at times we have video calls that are being recorded. This can lead to sensitive information from your clipboard while you are pasting be available for the viewer to pause and look at it.

Hence there is possibility that sensitive copy paste information can be leaked out.

I am proposing to have an additional feature, where after a copy being added to Ditto, the user can "label" the copy and show the label name instead of the actual value on the quick paste window. This would help to hide the sensitive information from being leaked.

You can title the clip in Quick list -> Select clip -> Properties (Alt+Enter) -> Item Title. The title is just for label as you want, it doesn't make any change of copied content.

OMG! This is so awesome! I had no idea on this. I really thought the Title is the copied item. Perhaps and interactive rename function on the quick list itself would help this feature to be more prominent!

But thank you, this resolves my issue.

Indeed. Like any other Ditto hidden features, this is a hidden action that is difficult to use. but I think Ditto seems to have so few contributor compared to users to apply a lot of good ideas like yours. I hope more people come to here so Ditto will be boosted. btw, happy new year~

I would love to help, but CPP and/or C itself is horrible. If you do have like short videos or trainings on your codebase then perhaps as a developer buddy, simple ideas could be easily implemented, could possibly do and send you a pull request :)

~~ HAPPY NEW YEAR ~~
