It's as simple as it is. A command in system commands plugin to clear clipboard history.
Integrating this into the default plugin would be awesome!

I upvote this. This feature should've been from the release of flow launcher. It's relatively an easy feature to add. @jjw24 what do you say?

Hmm, I can understand if it's a couple of lines to clear clipboard the effort is low to implement so why not, but then I am thinking if those that require clearing clipboard might also want to completely manage it, and we have plugins that do this (I believe, haven't verified) then do we need to duplicate the same code here?

@jjw24 Those plugins only clear clipboard history from their list. If all the history is cleared through the plugin. It will still be there in the windows clipboard manager. The manual way to do this is s clipboard to access the settings and clearing the history from there. As it is involved with the windows settings menu. I thought it would be appropiate to add this in system commands menu. I have tried every clipboard plugin. None of them clear it in the default windows clipboard manager. But, if I clear the history in one plugin and access the clipboard from another plugin the clipboard remains deleted. Not in the windows clipboard manager.
