Keyboard Maestro and LaunchBar Clipboard Management

Use both Keyboard Maestro and LaunchBar Clipboard Managers

Keyboard Maestro and LaunchBar have excellent activate clipboard history switcher. Having both of them enable allows you to get the best of both worlds when you need it.

Keyboard Maestro Advantage

  • You can "pin" clipboard items so you won't loose them.
  • You can preview more of the images in the dialog box.

LaunchBar Advantage

  • Perfect for the quick clipboard history use.
  • ClipMerge - Press Command-C twice to merge the copied data with the latest clipboard content. Useful for list building.

One trick to having multiple Clipboard management is to have a similar hotkey. This is the setup that I have for both:
