Overview

AutoClipX works as an alternative to the Windows default clipboard facility for users who prefer to use something more advanced. It is actually three features in one: ClipMan, AutoWin and AutoPaste.

ClipMan is a new clipboard manager for the user to copy a portion of text and paste that selection into a document. ClipMan can remember the last ten copying procedures and keeps them stored in memory within the app.

A Multi-Click Select approach to using the mouse extends what the user can do with just the mouse and the mouse buttons. Text becomes much more selectable using the multi-click features which go beyond the usual highlighting possible in other applications.

Need to copy some text but then strip out extraneous characters, HTML code, double spaces, line feeds, errant numbers, and more? This can also be perfected quite easily to save time on editing text content.

AutoWin learns as the user works on their PC. It sees what program windows are being used and will make it easier to switch seamlessly between them when that's needed.

AutoPaste is a new way to automatically paste without even needing to complete the operation directly.

AutoSave also ensures that data will not be lost so it'll be there when it is needed.

One exclusive feature with AutoClipX is to determine what programs to block with the copy and pasting process because it is not relevant with them. Windows can be black-listed or white-listed depending on the user's preference. This is useful for security to avoid pasting information accidentally into a program not suitable for that.

AutoClipX requires Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7 or 8.

Installation

AutoClipX needs Windows Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7 or 8 and available storage space of approximately 1.6 MB to complete the installation. A pre-selected folder is shown, but the user can navigate to a different folder to install there instead. A Start menu item, desktop shortcut icon, and Quick launch icon can be created for the user too. The change log can be viewed or the program can just be opened by the user right away.

Interface

The demo mode needs to be selected from the window (instead of registering) to begin using the software. There are two rows of tabs (five on the top row, four on the bottom row).

The number of customization possibilities on all aspects of copy and pasting with this software is extensive.
