Keep images and files in clipboard history

Clipboard history stores text. Copying an image or a file and reaching for it later does not work.

Scope

  • Record image and file-path pasteboard types alongside text.
  • Show a thumbnail for an image and an icon with the path for a file.
  • Return puts the original type back on the pasteboard, not a text rendering of it.
  • Count images and files against the existing retention window and entry cap, and respect the existing size limits.
  • Keep the opt-in, the pause control and per-entry deletion exactly as they are.

Notes

Storage grows quickly with images. Decide whether to keep bytes in the database or on disk with a reference, and cap the per-entry size. Protected pasteboard types stay skipped.
