Pastebot can ignore the clippings that are larger than a user defined value, and you can choose to hide either the Dock or the menubar icon. Other customization options include the possibility to switch between the light and dark theme, or toggle between the single and multi-line text. Within the Pastebot Preferences window, you can also define personalized hotkeys for each user created pasteboards, for pasting the previous clipping, for opening the filter window, or to paste with the last filter. Access user-defined clippings collections via keyboard shortcuts and apply custom filters Note that you can organize clippings into groups in the app’s main window: you can create as many pasteboards as yo like. Pastebot resides in your status bar, and you can activate the clipboard viewer either by clicking on the menulet icon or by using the system-wide hotkey. However, you can extend the list to include other apps that handle sensitive information. Clipboard manager that records everything that you put on the pasteboardĪs soon as you launch the Pastebot application, the utility will start recording your clippings, and you can browse them either via the app’s main window or through the clipboard panel.įor security reasons, the Keychain Access application is included by default in the list of utilities that will not be monitored by Pastebot. The tool integrates a search bar and enables you to apply custom content filters. Sel.Pastebot is a clipboard manager that automatically records all your clippings so you can use them again at a later time without navigating back and forth between multiple documents.įurthermore, Pastebot comes with an organizing tool that can be used to put together clippings associated with the same project. Prevent images etc being pasted into textbox Var savedSel = sel.saveCharacterRanges(editor) Bookmark selection so we can restore it later Javascript var inputArea = $element.find('#editor') I also perform some other work using the library in the same functions, which I have stripped out of this example, so this is not optimal code. I have achieved this using rangy library to save and restore selections. See up to line 123 - this is the last part of the task - inserting content into selection. Which parts of formatting do you want to keep? Textarea will keep only basic ones - blocks formatting. Note that I want to keep the formatting as I would paste it in my textarea (from word, excel.). We need to prevent some events on IE, because since we're listening for both sometimes this may cause doubled handling. The rest of the trick - On IEs we listen for both paste events, on the rest only for paste. * !canceled & fire 'afterPaste' on editor * execIECommand( 'paste' ) -> this fires another 'paste' event, so cancel it Special treatment is needed for IE, for which is this part of doc) Opera cannot be handled at all because it doesn't fire any events Paste from native context menu & menubar (Fx & Webkits are handled in 'paste' default listner. * !success & fire 'pasteDialog' on editor from our toolbar) * fire 'paste' on editable ('beforepaste' for IE) Paste command (used by non-native paste - e.g. However, small excerpt from our docs may be useful for you: I can't to describe you them, because even after few weeks I don't remember all of them. There's number (huge number :D) of browsers' quirks that you'll need to handle.

To handle all ways of pasting we're using both - beforepaste and paste. You won't be possible to handle all browsers by just one event paste. If you really need to write your own editor check out - it's the old impl, before I rewrote it, but it works everywhere where it's possible.
Pastebot paste as plain text full#
two main editors (guess why only three exist) are working on this for years and we still have full bugs lists ). It's going to consume all your time and still your editor will be buggy. However, here're some hints that may help you:ĭon't write wysiwyg editor - use one that exists. I'm CKEditor's core developer and by coincidence for last 4 months I was working on clipboard support and related stuff :) Unfortunately I won't be able to describe you the entire way how pasting is handled, because the tales of the impl are too tricky for me even after writing impl by myself :D
