New features and changes in iClip 5.6.2 (since 5.6.0)

Fixed: Pop-up previews no longer show technical "NSKeyedArchiver bplist" text instead of the expected image or other content.
Fixed: No more crashing on macOS Tahoe.
Fixed: Icons of file and folder clippings show correctly again on macOS Tahoe.
New: If a Clip Set is named after an application, the Clip Set can be automatically activated, see iClip's Preferences.
Fixed: Dropping of items onto the iClip icon in the menu bar works again.

New features and changes in iClip 5.6.0 (since 5.5.9)

New: You can now install a different menubar icon, see Skins, at the page bottom.
New: The Preferences have a new option "Switch to Clipping Set matching the current app's name". When checked, any Clip Set that has the name of an app will be activated when that app is open and its menu bar showing.
New: You can now choose the type (flavor) a clipping is showing in the Pop-Up Preview window by holding down the Option (⌥) key when clicking on the bin's gear icon.
Fixed: Fixes previews for folders and files in macOS Tahoe, which should show their icon but did show just a very large arrow (the so-called Alias badge).
Fixed: Fixes a potential crash on Macs with Intel CPUs.
Note: If the Security & Privacy settings aren't correctly enabled, iClip will now prompt to fix that.

New features and changes in iClip 5.5.9 (since 5.5.8)

Fixed: Fixes a frequent crash when using iClip on macOS 26 (Tahoe).
New: The Clip Sets in the pop-up menu can now be ordered by most recent used. To get this special sorting, hold down the Option key before opening the menu. Or change the setting permanently with this Terminal command:
```
defaults write com.irradiatedsoftware.iClip "Sort Clip Sets by recent use" -bool YES
```
New: The transparency setting in the Preferences works differently now: It makes the entire window transparent, making it less obstrusive – and once you interact with iClip, it becomes opaque. To change the old background transparency, hold down the option key before moving the slider in the Preferences window.
New: The Preferences for "Excluded Applications…" adds two checkboxes to control whether to record passwords ("concealed") and other data ("transient") from password managers and other clipboard managing apps.
New: All windows that you can open to modify clippings or clipping sets should now be movable and even remember their position next time you re-open them (they all share the same remembered location on screen).
New: Makes the "Excluded Applications" window resizable and makes the headline visible again.
Fixed: Clippings that formerly just showed a "?" now show their macOS-given type name, which may help identify their content a little better.
Fixed: Turning off an app's checkbox in the Excluded Applications window works again.
Fixed: Passwords puts into the clipboard by supported password managers are now properly ignored according to nspasteboard.org.
Fixed: The occasional "????" text in bins shouldn't appear any more.
Fixed: Reloading the database when it's shared via iCloud is more reliable.
Note: It's now easier to add a different iClip icon for the menu bar. If you like to design one, please contact me.

New features and changes in iClip 5.5.8 (since 5.5.7)

New: The background and text color of each clipping can now be set. For this, the previous "Edit Clip Text…" has been renamed to "Edit Clip Text / Color…".
Fixed: The clippings database can once again be made permanent on other volumes, not just on the startup volume.

New features and changes in iClip 5.5.7 (since 5.5.5)

New: The Recorder can now be turned off/on by holding the shift key when clicking on the iClip icon in the menu bar.
New: If you copy an image file (png, jpeg etc.), iClip will now show a preview of the image in the bin and in the pop-up preview window.
New: A clipping's background color can now be changed with scripting by the "tint color" property.
New: iClip now includes a "iClip Events Base" script for easier subclassing in a custom "iClip Events" script. Basically, instead of having to declare all the supported handlers, one leads the script with the line property parent : script "iClip Events Base" and then only implements the handlers one needs.
Fixed: Copied Finder Alias files do not appear as plain text any more.
Fixed: Copied files that contain backslashes ("\") work again.
Fixed: The Preferences window has the correct height again on recent macOS versions.
Fixed: Copying CJK text does not freeze iClip any more.
Fixed: Emojis on Japanese systems appear correctly in bins again.
Fixed: No more duplicate clips in iClip when copying from Word.
Fixed: LibreOffice doesn't turn text into Bookmarks any more when copying.

New features and changes in iClip 5.5.5 (since 5.5.4)

New: iClip now runs natively on Apple Silicon (M1) Macs.
New: If you create a Clip Set named "Find", then this set will automatically record the system's Find pasteboard, i.e. if you use the Find command in a program, the search text will get recorded by iClip (some Mac apps may not support this, though).
New: The Manage Clip Sets window now shows the Recorder, too.
New: Adds a Hot Key "Paste plain text from next bin", which functions similarly to "Paste from next bin" with the additional behavior that it matches the current style.
New: You can now prevent bin and pop-up previews for specific Clip Sets and individual Clippings via Scripting (see suppressPreview).
New: Can now define apps that prevent the "Automatically Show and Hide" option. This is an array of bundle ID strings with the key "Apps preventing Auto Show", settable with Prefs Editor.
New: Holding down the option key when selecting a Script from a bin's gear menu will now open the script's source code in its designated editor instead of running the script.
Changed: The Hot Keys "Paste from next bin" and "Paste plain text from next bin" now also work if you didn't explicitly paste from or copy into a specific bin, and they'll then paste from the latest Recorder clipping. This makes it possible copy formatted text and paste it back into an app, keeping the current formatting by using the new Hot Key "Paste plain text from next bin".
Changed: When holding down the command key while the mouse is over a bin's Paste button, the (T->T) cursor badge will appear in all cases where plain text can be pasted. Before this change, it only appeared if the clipping contained rich text.
Note: The iClip database cannot be stored on Google Drive on macOS Monterey or later any more. If you need to share your clippings between multiple Macs, please use a different cloud sharing service, such as OneDrive or Dropbox.
Fixed: Fixes pasting into Microsoft Office apps such as Word.
Fixed: Fixes pasting into LibreOffice.
Improved: Reduces iClip's Energy Impact significantly when idle.
