Clipboard cleared when starting BetterTouchTool

Describe the bug
The clipboard of Mac OSX is cleared when starting BetterTouchTool

Device information:

  • Type of Mac: MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
  • macOS version: MacOS Mojave (10.14.1 (18B75))
  • BetterTouchTool version: 2.660

Issue is still there with latest version of BetterTouchTool (v2.667).

Happy new year! :fireworks:

Fyi, this issue still exists in latest version of BetterTouchTool (v2.685).

unfortunately I haven't been able to figure out what causes this. Possibly it's some framework or one of the undocumented system functions BTT needs. I'll keep looking, but it doesn't seem to be any of the obvious things ;-(

I'd recommend to enable the BTT clipboard manager (assign the predefined action "Show Clipboard / Pasteboard History" to some trigger). It's very helpful if you want to have access to your clipboard history.

Never mind. Found it and it's AWESOME :wink:

Hallo Andreas,

dieses Problem habe ich auch, folgende Fehlermeldung erscheint im Log, nachdem ich an meinem iMac im Ruhemodus war (nur Bildschirm aus):
