Could anyone help me with this?
I couldn't quite get the following Macro script to pay a sound on successful copy to Clipboardfusion:

NOTE: I have tried the play sound on clipboard change option in settings, but it often bugged out when I copy a lot of items rapidly and keep playing the sound repeatedly until I forcefully close the Clipboardfusion app. Also, the option plays sound on other clipboard activities instead of only when the Macro is complete (which is what I really needed).

Macro:
"Copy Text to Local Pinned Slot 01"

Code
Copy
Select All

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

// The 'text' parameter will contain the text from the:
//   - Current Clipboard when run by HotKey
//   - History Item when run from the History Menu
// The returned string will be:
//   - Placed directly on the Clipboard
//   - Ignored by ClipboardFusion if it is 'null'
public static class ClipboardFusionHelper
{
    public static string ProcessText(string text)
    {
        int localPinnedItemCount = BFS.ClipboardFusion.GetLocalPinnedItemCount();
        if (localPinnedItemCount < 24)
        {
            for (int i = localPinnedItemCount; i < 24; i++)
            {
                BFS.ClipboardFusion.AddLocalPinnedText("--placeholder--");
            }
        }    
        BFS.ClipboardFusion.SetLocalPinnedText(0, BFS.Clipboard.CopyText());
        return null;
    }
}

Just throught I should post for anyone else having a simmilar problem.
PS. Still can't find a workable code to just play a mp3 audio file when the Macro is succesful.

Got a workaround for this by triggering one of Windows system audio and changing the sound on Windows setting to something more pleasant to the ears:

Code
Copy
Select All

System.Media.SystemSounds.Asterisk.Play();

Thus the Macro code becomes:

Code
Copy
Select All

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

// The 'text' parameter will contain the text from the:
//   - Current Clipboard when run by HotKey
//   - History Item when run from the History Menu
// The returned string will be:
//   - Placed directly on the Clipboard
//   - Ignored by ClipboardFusion if it is 'null'
public static class ClipboardFusionHelper
{
    public static string ProcessText(string text)
    {
        int localPinnedItemCount = BFS.ClipboardFusion.GetLocalPinnedItemCount();
        if (localPinnedItemCount < 24)
        {
            for (int i = localPinnedItemCount; i < 24; i++)
            {
                BFS.ClipboardFusion.AddLocalPinnedText("--placeholder--");
            }
        }    
        BFS.ClipboardFusion.SetLocalPinnedText(0, BFS.Clipboard.CopyText());
        System.Media.SystemSounds.Asterisk.Play();
        return null;
    }
}

I just tested it with this code and it worked:

Code
Copy
Select All

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

// The 'text' parameter will contain the text from the:
//   - Current Clipboard when run by HotKey
//   - History Item when run from the History Menu
// The returned string will be:
//   - Placed directly on the Clipboard
//   - Ignored by ClipboardFusion if it is 'null'
public static class ClipboardFusionHelper
{
    public static string ProcessText(string text)
    {
        int localPinnedItemCount = BFS.ClipboardFusion.GetLocalPinnedItemCount();
        if (localPinnedItemCount < 24)
        {
            for (int i = localPinnedItemCount; i < 24; i++)
            {
                BFS.ClipboardFusion.AddLocalPinnedText("--placeholder--");
            }
        }    
        BFS.ClipboardFusion.SetLocalPinnedText(0, BFS.Clipboard.CopyText());
        BFS.Audio.PlayFile("C:\\Users\\test\\Downloads\\sample-3s.mp3");
        return null;
    }
}
