MultiClipboard

MultiClipboard is a fantastic tool for anyone who spends a lot of time working with text on their PC. If you’re like most users, you probably find yourself using the copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+P) functions all the time to speed things up. But did you know that there’s an even better way to manage your clipboard?

Why Use a Clipboard Manager?

The thing is, the Windows Clipboard only holds onto the last thing you copied. So, if you copy something new, it replaces what was there before. That’s where a clipboard manager comes in handy! It keeps track of everything you've copied, so nothing gets lost.

Get More from Notepad++

If you're a fan of Notepad++ and need a clipboard history tool, look no further than MultiClipboard. This add-on fits right into Notepad++ without any fuss because it’s open-source and supports plugins.

How to Install MultiClipboard

Installing MultiClipboard is super easy! Just extract the DLL file from the download and toss it into the “plugins” folder of Notepad++. This works whether you're using the installer or portable version of Notepad++. Simple, right?

Your New Clipboard Panel

Once it's all set up, you can see the MultiClipboard viewer by pressing Ctrl+Alt+V. It pops up on the left side of your screen and starts capturing everything you copy. You can even paste clips back using Ctrl+Shift+V!

Customize Your Experience

By default, this tool only records clips from Notepad++. So if you copy something outside of it, that won’t be saved unless you change some settings. You can move clip entries around in your list, copy them back to Windows Clipboard for use elsewhere, or delete anything you don’t need anymore.

Tweak Your Settings

The best part? MultiClipboard has tons of configuration options! You can set how many clips to keep, allow copying from other programs, auto-copy selected text, and even use your middle mouse button for pasting.

A Handy Assistant for Text Work

In short, MultiClipboard is an awesome helper for keeping track of your text while working in Notepad++. It's user-friendly and packed with useful features that make managing your clipboard much easier!
