IntelliJ Manage clipboard history


Is it possible to manage the entries created within the IntelliJ History clipboard and that we can consult using command "CMD+Shift+V" ?

Why: This is because I see a lot entries which are polluting the history when text is copied

Example - Paste from history

1 ~/Library
2 ~/Librar
3 ~/Libra
4 ~/Libr
5 ~/Lib
6 ~/Li
7 ~/L
8 ~/
9 ~
....

Solution

  • Disable the Copy to clipboard on selection option at File | Settings | Tools | Terminal:

    Copy to clipboard on selection

    Entries in the history dialog can be removed using the Del key. You can also use Shift+Arrows or Shift/Ctrl + mouse clicks to select multiple entries before the deletion.
