Add Option to run the application at windows startup

Maybe change the background colour of the clipboard entries slightly so they stand out form the menu options so you don't click them by accident

what needs to happen?

currently it checks if higher than max, delete 1.

should it delete all eldest until current == max? i think so.

This needs to be changed.

once you close the settings window after startup you can no longer access it.

This needs to be fixed by adding a menu item "Settings"

when this is done settings menu no longer needs to be visible at startup.

Setings window icon is default, this needs to be changed

This method doesn't like it if you modify something outside of the Designer.

a PostInitializeComponent() needs to be added where i can set Values to variables and other Control properties.

Option to save clips so when you restart the application it has the clips from the last run of the application

Are start App Parameters needed?

how about a refresh parameter or change default settings before application starts.

This is to avoid the issue that may arise when people set their clip limit to more than the height of the screen so they cant exit.

For some reason Pasta.ico, even though you look at it it has a black Background it doesn't when the installer is created, why is this?

If people are to use this is would be nice if it could capture exceptions so I can fix the issue.

Does logging need to be added?
most likely it needs to catch exceptions and log it to a file in the same location as the executable.

other than that i see nothing that needs to be logged in an application this small.

Registry setting for Verbose?
this will then log menu deletes, adds, different clipboards found, startup, shutdown, exceptions

The clip just gets set to the value of the menu item. This should be changed so if it is over a certain character limit it is cut short and desplays ... Afterwards so the menu doesn't go off the side of the screen

some refactoring is sorely needed.

everything is in one class, time to spread out a bit.

in the settings menu, you can change the timer interval to what you like however it wont stay that way permanently.

something to do with not setting to registry correctly?

maxClips doesnt have this issue.

Running the release build of the executable for the first time i found it says it runs at startup, but it doesn't because it will run the release build at startup.

perhaps there needs to be checks for if the directory in the registry is the same as the running application. and if it is, what then?

perhaps a window option, "did you move the executable? an application is set to startup at $this location, should i change it to here?"
