Hi Dominik,

under Windows it is demanded, that applications
SHOULD NOT overwrite the clipboard by themselves.
Apart from that, in some cases my idea might be
helpful:

When double clicking a password or user name
entry, save the current clipboard contents to a
variable. Then behave as usual, but after erasing
the username/password from clipboard, re-write the
old clipboard contents to clipboard!

This can only have usability advantages, but there
can be no disadvantage in that behaviour!

Thanks

    Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm not planning to implement a clipboard content restoration, because this would be problematic when the previous content is sensitive (e.g. a password copied by a different application) and the user expects it to be overwritten/cleared.

    Best regards,
    Dominik
