Don't worry about trying to repro it with logging enabled. I'll bump mine up to L3 logging and see if I can get it to happen here.

If you run into any more trouble, definitely let us know.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#8 Thu, 21 Mar 2019 15:52:11 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#8 ClipboardFusion Unfortunately I'm not sure. I have not seen it since restarting Clipboard Fusion as part of the steps you provided in post 4. My system has been up and without issues for nearly 8 days now.

My latest theory is having L1 logging enabled for extended periods of time may have contributed to the issue. I no longer have L1 logging enabled. If I run into it again with logging disabled, I'll bump this post.

If you'd like me to try and reproduce it by running with L1, I'm willing to try that. ]]> https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#7 Thu, 21 Mar 2019 15:14:05 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#7 ClipboardFusion Just a quick update to let you know that I haven't run into issues yet during testing, but I'll keep at it. How long does it usually take before it starts acting up on your system? ]]> https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#6 Thu, 14 Mar 2019 19:18:26 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#6 ClipboardFusion Thanks! I don't see anything out of the ordinary in the debug log. I usually have my ClipboardFusion set to keep the manager window open, so I'll disable that and see if I can get it to happen here as well. ]]> https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#5 Tue, 12 Mar 2019 20:48:36 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#5 ClipboardFusion Well, restarting ClipboardFusion "fixed" the issue. I've seen this intermittently, so it could be related to run time.

Luckily, I already had L1 logging enabled (woops). I had made a screen capture in case you wanted to see it and grabbed a timestamp from there. I encountered the issue around 3/12 2:31pm.

I have since disabled L1 logging. ]]> https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#4 Tue, 12 Mar 2019 20:05:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e#4 ClipboardFusion Thanks! It seems to work here when I test with your settings as well. Could you send me a debug log?

• On the ClipboardFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1:Log Minimal" and click Apply
• Restart ClipboardFusion
• Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
• Send us the %APPDATA%\ClipboardFusion\ClipboardFusion.log file (can be found by clicking the Open Log button on the Troubleshooting tab)
• Disable debug logging after sending the log

Could you attach a backup of your ClipboardFusion Settings (Settings > Options > Export) so I can test with them here?

Thanks! ]]> https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e Tue, 12 Mar 2019 18:46:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/clipboard-manager-retains-focus-after-auto-paste/?ID=f7615216-c087-4906-814e-212b3844050e ClipboardFusion In my Clipboard Manager settings, I have unchecked "Keep Clipboard Manager open after losing focus" and check "Auto-paste on Clipboard Manager selection". Prior to 5.5.1, this meant I could use my "Show History Menu" keyboard shortcut make a selection with the arrow keys and press enter. This would paste that selection and the Clipboard Manager would disappear.

Now it pastes my selection, but Clipboard Manager stays visible. ]]>
