v 1.6

ClipBar 1.6 is here!

This release enhances the functionality of the 'Launch at Login' feature on newer versions of macOS. Due to underlying technical changes, if you had previously configured the app to start automatically, you will need to open ClipBar's Settings and enable it again just this once. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you, but this change was necessary to future-proof the app.

ClipBar 1.6 also includes a new feature, with special thanks to connectionfailure's App Store review for suggesting the idea: if you need it for any reason, you can now manually reset ClipBar's content for privacy by right-clicking on the app in the menu bar and selecting Clear ClipBar; this does not erase the content of your Mac's pasteboard, but removes the preview from the menu bar.

Thank you for using ClipBar, and please don't hesitate to contact me at support@cdf1982.com! Ciao, Cesare

v 1.5

ClipBar 1.5 adds a cool new trick, thanks to Peter's appreciated feature request: there's now support for adding a global keyboard shortcut to toggle the app's popover on and off.

To enable this feature, please open ClipBar's Settings and click the Record Shortcut area; then, please type your favorite key combination, for instance ⌘⌥G.
From now on, every time you want to review the full content of your pasteboard (and not only the preview provided by the app in the menu bar) without actually pasting it, you can invoke ClipBar with that keyboard shortcut. And what's even cooler is that ClipBar won't steal focus from the app you are in, so you don't need to switch context.

When you record the shortcut, you'll need to use one or more of the following modifiers plus a letter or number:

⌘ Command
⌃ Control
⌥ Option
⇧ Shift

The system checks if the shortcut is not currently registered by another application, so the perfect combination you had in mind might not be available.

This was a fun feature to build, and one I believe can bring great convenience in day by day use of ClipBar.

As always, I will be incredibly grateful if you decide to take the time to leave a 5-stars review, if it’s useful to you! –Cesare

v 1.4.1

Happy Holidays from ClipBar!
This minor update improves performances on macOS Monterey, and the oldest operating system version supported is now Mojave.
It's also a good chance to remind you that you can reorder ClipBar's position, or any other status bar app, by holding down the CMD key and dragging its icon with your mouse.
