What it does:
This macro will let you have 10 "fake" clipboards that will keep your information saved as long as
Macro Express is running. It will also keep a record of anything you copy (with ctrl+c) and allow you
to view the past 15 things that have been copied to your Windows clipboard.
To install:
Download the macro file umclipboards.mex
and save it to your hard drive. Import the macros into your existing macro file by clicking File |
Import | Macros.
To use:
To Copy: Ctrl + (1 - 0) - This will copy the highlighted text to fake clipboard 1 through 10
To Paste: Alt + (1 - 0) - This will paste out the saved contents of clipboards 1 through 10
To Swap: Win + (1 - 0) - This will take whatever is in the fake clipboard and copy it to your
Windows clipboard (normal paste/ctrl+v will paste it)
View History: Ctrl+Shift+C - This will show you the last 15 things you have copied
(using ctrl+c).
How it works:
Each fake clipboard # corresponds to a variable starting at T11 through T20. It simply copies the
information to a variable and then you can paste it out or "swap" it to your Windows clipboard
through the other hotkeys.
Each time you hit ctrl+C it saves the info to T21. It then moves the contents of what was
previously in T21 to T22 and so on for 15 entries (up to T35). To view it MACEXP simply brings
up a dialog box with all the variables pasted out in it.
Limitations:
It only saves the history of things you've copied with ctrl+c. Will not work if you copy through
mouse menu.
Requirements:
Macro Express 3
