Will version 5 interface be similar to 4.2? It looks like draft for now, espaciallly with this strange tabs that disallow keyboard navigarion. BTW, IMHO version 4.x interface is fine. Very fresh, accurate and original.

if there's any way i could convince you to keep the look of v4.x ...

the beta version ui looks like a total step back, and the flat/modern design of v4.x is just so much better. please?

Agree, even old-fasioned CLCL looks better. I moved to CF from CLCL just because of new fresh interface.

I don't like tabs. It's less user-freandly than menu version IMHO.

I like the Clipboard Manager, but would like to be able to adjust the height, if possible. There tasks where I would only like to see the most recent clip (Keep Clipboard Manager open after losing focus), and others where I need the CM open such as it is now.

i would love an option to disable the tabs, since i personally don't use anything but the history and online pinned now that the clipboards sync. also, they key icons (#1-#10) are a bit skeumorphic for 2017, and they are hard to read on some of the higher-res displays that (admittedly) don't handle scaling well at all.

Me too. I use history and pinned items as text templates. The submenu solution for the items was fine, compact and userfriendly IMHO.

That means that I need to do extra operations. I have one hand on the left side of KB and one hand on mouse. I click Win+`, the history appears. Synchronously with calling history I'm moving mouse to the region where the history should appear, just automatically, I need mouse only to work with appeared window and all it's functions and that's quick. In another way I need to move the left hand to the right side of KB, select the right tab with the arrows or mouse, select the right pinned item with the mouse and don't forget to switch back to history tab, too many operations. That's the usability regress for me.

I'll tell you in another way - I need to do extra operation and I don't like this. The 4.x intenface was solid, simple and will designed. I don't see any of this points in 5.x. But this is my personal opinion, I don't know what other users think. You can create the survey if you want, that will be really objective.

I switched back to v4 after trying v5 for a month. v4 felt way more productive to me.
Also the UI of v5 need to be polished, for eg the alignment of close button

Me too, but the is only one problem for me: no save history on exit function. And local pinned items also.

Some suggestions.
1) Align close button to top right corner
2) The icons using for numbering items looks obscure. Use more flat and clear icons.
3) Use left right arrow keys to switch between tabs.

Great! You guys actually listen to us end users.
Also about close button : new windows close button style is a minimal x mark which turn red box on hover, not red always. Try to follow that design principle.. feels more native.
As a productivity app , most users are not after eye candy, but a light weight native app.
