I'm happy to announce the release of MultiClipboard 2.0.0 plugin. This release has all the things that I wanted to make it for version 2.0, hence it is now no longer a "preview". As usual, this version only supports the unicode version of Notepad++ (5.1 and above)
Changelog
------------
1. Added cyclic clipboard paste as an alternative to paste menu on Ctrl-Shift-V
2. Added auto copying of selected text to clipboard
3. Added middle click paste and shift-middle click to show paste menu
4. Paste menu pop-up location is at caret when activated by keyboard, and at mouse cursor when activated by mouse. This is useful when the multiclipboard paste command is added to the context menu: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=6395796
Hi all, a delayed reply to your kind feedbacks here.
@DV
Yes, this is already done and checked into CVS, together with a couple other performance tweaks for handling large texts
@Sing
I've never tested with 2 instances before, so I'll definitely check this out. As for your second report, you're right it was in version 1, but I forgot about it while implementing version 2. Will add this back
@A. S.
Yes, this is planned as part of the next release. Have not got to it yet though
Thank you all, and keep your great comments coming! :-)

An interesting plugin. Thank you.
Some comments:
1) When I copy to clipboard a whole file with a size of ~50 kB, MultiClipboard shows an empty new item in its list-box.
I think, you must limit the list-box'es item length in order to show, for example, just 50 first characters of the clipboard text when its length is > 50.
2) It could be handy to delete items from MultiClipboard's list-box by pressing Delete key.

I think I found a bug. When there are two (or more) instances of notepad++, close of one instance will make the rest instances' MultiClipboard not work.
way to reproduce:
1) open two instances of notepad++
2) try to copy some words from each instance, and press Ctrl+Shift+V, you can see the new copied words are added to the menu.
3) close one of the instance opened, then copy some words again in the opened instance. press Ctrl+Shift+V again, you will then see the menu with the old items only, but not the new one.

I found another bug.
When you copied 3 items, the list will show like this:
----------------
1 aaa
2 bbb
3 ccc
----------------
after that, when you copy "ccc" again, the item #3 will not float to the top (i.e. change to #1). The item copied again will float the top in the older version. I hope this handy features will come back. Thanks.

Is it possible to add an option to save MultiClipboard's items to reuse them after closing npp?
Thanx
