... And 5.734 adds a new prefix "content:", when used only the content of the pasteboard item will be searched
Thank you. I still think there are a lot cases where this could lead to the same unwanted behavior, since there any infinite different app names.
Thank you, this I think might solve my issues even if it is not straightforward.
The "content:" prefix does not filter-out the screenshots from apps which have the searched string in the name and again it is matching partial names, e.g.:
I'm searching for the last item, but again items from Teams are in the list.
unfortunately I can not fix that with the current architecture because the image description is part of the content. Maybe at some point!

Hi Andreas,
I found another app generating duplicate items - MS Excel.
Hey @Andreas_Hegenberg , were you able to check on that? Backspace is still deleting items.
Is there anyway to control the transparency of the Clipboard Manager window frame? It seems to be much more transparent than sidebars in other apps (Finder, Mail, etc).
I’m not sure if this something recent, or if the CM window almost always just showed up over top of things that didn’t make a difference before for me, but this morning I’ve been noticing a ton of color and shapes show through it that makes it hard to read.
For example, compare how much more comes through the active BTT CM window vs the active Mail sidebar:
I’m still on macOS 15.7.1, not on 26 yet.
there has not been a change to the window style (it also has not been adapted to Tahoe yet which I plan to do at some point).
However there is a hidden setting you can use to make it use a slightly different background style:
defaults write com.hegenberg.BetterTouchTool BTTClipboardReduceTransparency -bool YES

Thanks! The hidden setting improves things a lot for me.
The window must have just normally appeared for in front of other things that didn’t show through as much. It wasn’t nearly as noticeable when the content/screen/windows behind it were more uniform or just text, etc.
Thanks again.
Great! Always nice if a setting I randomly added years ago can help somebody

Is there any possibilities right now to have different settings depending on current app? For ex when using Screen Sharing pasting doesnt work and i need to write out the paste instead. Otherwise it will just end with “V” instead of pasting correct. Im guessing there might be other apps that people use where they might want to use plain text or formated text for ex.
Depends on how you are pasting. If you are using a keyboard shortcut then yes that would be possible to configure. However it is not possible to have different default paste mode for different apps (when double-clicking an item to paste)
You mean it only works if you use the action to get for ex “nr 1” items from clipboard? You cant get clipboard manager to open up with certain settings?
Currently the default mode is shared between clipboard manager configurations.
You can setup a shortcut that pastes the selected item in a specific format, and this shortcut could be modified to use different formats in different apps though.
For example the default clipbard manager shortcut CAG only checks for BTTClipboardManagerActive == 1, it could additonally check for a specific app:
Did a 3 tap shortcut in clipboard manager to write out. But the trigger for the app underneath clipboard manager triggers as well. Had to add to safari in this case to not trigger while clipboard manager is open.
better use the predefined action "Paste specific items from Clipboard Manager"
