Pinned clipboard items become unpinned when the content is re-copied. Common scenario as an example: say I have my phone number as a pinned item in the clipboard; I use the pinned phone number on a form, but realize I've pasted it into the wrong text field, so I cut the phone number from that field to paste into the correct field. The moment I cut the phone number, it counted as re-copying the item, which for whatever reason causes the phone number in the clipboard to become unpinned, so I'd have to re-pin it. Is there a way to disable automatic unpinning?
