Hello!
At the time of writing this post, I really can’t remember in which version is the Clipboard Ring first introduced in Visual Studio? (InterDev?) I think it has always been there and that’s why I’m amazed that there are people who do not know about this feature! In a nutshell the Clipboard Ring is the extended version of the Clipboard, there is an array of memory spaces to store information from clipboard, again and again.
Important: Remember that, as a professional, your level of quality can improve dramatically if you learn how to use your tools.
The CR is very simple to use, you have to still use CTRL + C to copy content to the Clipboard, and to paste the contents, you have to use CTRL + SHIFT + V. If what you want is “Paste” something older in the array, well press again CTRL + SHIFT + V … and you’ll go up thought the element that you’ve copied.
In the following video you can see how to change the content to stick whenever you press CTRL + SHIFT + V
If at any time you forget this combination, because quick launch can help
