Clipboard doesn't clean out
Hello.
I've setup the clipboard to be cleaned out after 90 seconds. It doesn't work.
Doesn't matter which browser I use (Safari, Chrome or Firefox), clipboard content stay in memory.
I actually keep a couple of passwords (with no way of knowing what they're related to) in a secure note. It is those passwords that won't be deleted from clipboard.
Any suggestions?

OS Version: OS X 10.10.5
Sync Type: iCloud & dropbox

Hi @dvouill,
The behaviour you're seeing is due to how the information is being copied. When you click on a field and it gets copied to the clipboard we set the timer. If you use OS X's standard copy commands (Edit > Copy or ⌘C) the timer isn't being set. I've recorded this in a bug report just now as that doesn't seem very consistent to me. The reason is we're not listening to the standard clipboard calls.
You may prefer to keep these passwords in custom fields instead. Not only would it allow the proper clearing of the clipboard but it would also allow you to set the field type to password (so it is normally obscured) and makes it easier to copy by allowing you to simply click on the field. As Secure Notes can have custom sections and fields the passwords can still be kept in this item. Obviously it would be beneficial to have consistent behaviour regardless if you move the passwords from the Secure Note into custom fields.
