Subject: Re: Emptying El Capitan's clipboard
I am not sure exactly what your concern
I am not sure exactly what your concerns are about emptying the clipboard. It
could be possible that the same functionality that allows windows to reappear
on reboot / relogin also saves the clipboard so you might not be clearing it by
logging out. If this is something you regularly want to do,
I have just tested the old workaround of simply copying a space to the
clipboard and this works for clearing the clipboard of any readable text
although obviously it is not technically icily cleared.

Apologies if this answer has already appeared but the old workaround for all
platforms was to highlight a space in any text and simply copy that to the
clipboard.
I will have a check on my version of Sierra to check that this still works.

I see if you go to OS 10.11.6’s Finder and Edit in the menu, a person can
Dissplay the clipboard. However, how does a person clear the Clipboard? A
person should not have to shutdown and boot everytime just to clear the
clipboard. Thank you.
