Known
Bugs/Issues
- In version
2.00 and above, the paste hot
keys
do not work as they should in certain applications. For example, in
Word when you press the paste hot key, no text will paste, you must
also press [Ctrl]+[V] immediately afterward. However, in Notepad the
paste hot keys work normally.
- Sometimes Clipboard Magic will stop
archiving
clips. When this happens you will have to close down and then restart
the program to resume archiving. Note that if the tray icon
can be seen Clipboard Magic is still running.
- When some application are running copied
clips
will appear duplicated in Clipboard Magic. This is a bug in those
applications not Clipboard Magic. They are sending multiple updates to
the clipboard. You
should contact those companies to fix their bugs.
