Is it possible to clear IntelliJ clipboard history

Viewed 307

I want to clear IntelliJ's clipboard history. I've looked into the documentation but I couldn't find a way to do it.

The reason why I want to clear the clipboard history is I'll be recording a video where I'll be invoking the clipboard history and I don't want the viewer to see unwanted content from the clipboard history. How can I do it?

Help is very much appreciated.

On mac, hitting fn + detele removes items from the clipboard history list.

If you press Shift + Command + V (on mac) / Ctrl + Shift + V (on Windows) the Paste from History dialog appears.

On the dialog, you can select each item in the history and press the delete button to remove it from the dialog.

You can also select all the lines in the dialog and press the delete button to remove them all at once
