Clipboard Manager
Win32 and 64, EnglishGeneral Usage Instructions
Once loaded, the CLIPBOARD command can be used to display the Clipboard Manager palette. The CLIPBOARD command is also added to a panel in the Plug-Ins tab on the AutoCAD Ribbon Bar. When using Ctrl-C (or COPYCLIP) inside AutoCAD, this palette will display each new set of AutoCAD objects added to the clipboard for later use. Each new item is assigned a name automatically, which can be changed using the right-click menu, F2 or double-clicking on the name. It also shows the time at which the item was added as well as a preview of the contents. The right-click menu also allows each clipboard item to be inserted, whether as standard geometry or a block at a selected point, or at the geometry's original location (if pasting objects between drawings).
