Settings

Open via the gear icon. Sections:

Database

  • Storage path — where clips live (defaults to uTools' per-plugin dir).
  • Cap by count — keep the latest N clips.
  • Cap by age — drop clips older than N days.
  • Pinned / starred / tagged — exempt from auto-cleanup.
  • Compact / Vacuum — manual reclaim of disk space.

Listener

  • Auto-start — start clipboard capture on plugin load.
  • Capture text / image / file — independent toggles.
  • Source filtering — exclude specific apps (e.g. password managers).
  • Full-text search — toggle on to enable a high-performance built-in index that searches across the entire history in milliseconds; the index is built progressively in the background on first use.
  • Auto clear on exit — reset search / category / multi-select / preview state when the plugin loses focus.
  • Image OCR — backfill OCR text for image clips so they become searchable.

Behaviour

  • Hide on paste — auto-close after Enter.
  • Confirm on delete.
  • Single-instance protection.

Preferences

  • Theme — light / dark / follow system.
  • Density — comfortable / compact.
  • Language — UI locale.

Category layout

Reorder, hide, or pin tabs (built-in + custom tag tabs).

Logs

  • View recent log entries from the plugin and the background capture process.
  • Toggle log level.
  • Logs are kept for 15 days under the system log directory; Open log folder opens it in your OS file manager.

Scripts

  • Per-script enable / disable.
  • Recent error log (one line per script).
  • Built-in lightweight code editor with syntax highlighting (no Monaco / IntelliSense — use an external editor for heavier work and paste the result back).
  • Reset to builtin — re-install builtin scripts to current shipped version.
  • Open scripts folder.
