How to share the Ditto clipboard with multiple machines on the network

The answerer left an update in the comments:

Update: For some reason, this problem went away on its own. I'm able to use Ditto as it used to work, collecting everything that I copy. This is kind of frustrating, as it doesn't address the original issue. – Bassam Mar 1 at 18:03

Here are some suggestions if you might experience this problem as well:

1. Try to run with elevated permissions and a less locked down UAC.

2. Update your Windows and software.

3. Create a new user profile to see whether it happens there.

4. Remove automatically starting entries, as another start-up program might perhaps interfere...

Answer: In Ditto, this is called a Sticky Clip. Sticky Clips always show at the top of the history list before any other clips.

To make a clip sticky:

• Right-click > Clip Order > Make Top Sticky Clip
• Right-click > Clip Order > Make Last Sticky Clip

To move a sticky clip up or down without making it the top or bottom sticky (these commands also work for non-sticky clips):

• Right-click > Clip Order > Move Up
• Right-click > Clip Order > Move Down

To remove the sticky setting:

• Right-click > Clip Order > Remove Sticky Setting

To move a non-sticky clip to the top of the list of non-sticky clips (this command only works for non-sticky clips):

• Right-click > Clip Order > Move To Top

Good question! The Ditto help and FAQ do not reflect the awesome things the developer and the community have done to improve the software. I hope this helps you. I love sticky clips. I use it as a poor woman's text expander, because the sticky clips correspond to the quick paste hot keys.
