 DEVELOPMENT

Development will show both the ongoing (if any) development version and the potential future roadmap.


Development version in progress - will be part of next stable release

No new version in development, but I have these things as next-things to look into:

  • Bug: Deleting an entry from favorite list, will make it possible to scoll up and show minus-values
  • Analyze: Copy image from Teams - will it show as empty?
  • Analyze: Handle process names with spaces inside - does it influence "Disable in these applications"?
  • Change: When disabling HovText then e.g. ALT+S should not send an Outlook email - keep the hotkeys in use
  • Change: Deleting all clipboard entries from "Advanced" should not delete "Favorites"



  • Future roadmap

    This is a list of ideas and wishlist of potential new functionalities - at least I am considering it but there is no guarantee at all and it may never be realized :-) Strikethrough items have been considered, but will (for now) not be done.

    Please feel free to comment on the same or suggest other functionalities via Contact.

  • Remove first bullet, if copied from bullet-list
  • Possibility to not save image in history
  • Copy to clipboard after enabling application again (after being disabled)
  • Quick-paste of the last 10 copied entries (Ctrl+1 to Ctrl+0)?
  • New modern UI (any ideas for nice looking and reasonable priced frameworks?)
  • Extended Validation code signing certificate (way too pricy currently)
