After I hide the menu bar icon, pop clip (the actual popclip app interface not the popup when you copy something) doesn’t show up at all when i click on the popclip app in launchpad… i wanted to change some preferences and it’s inaccessible now… i still see the popup when i select something but can’t access the actual app
Oh no! Welcome to the forum @kevindiedev.
This is something I need to look at because it has happened a few times to people on Monterey and above. What is supposed to happen is that re-launching the app temporarily puts PopClip back in the menu bar. But it seems that isn’t happening for you.
Here’s what I’d like you to try:
1) Quit PopClip (since you can’t access the controls, you can use Activity Monitor to do that, or type killall PopClip in Terminal) and then paste the following command in Terminal:
defaults write com.pilotmoon.popclip NMStatusItemHideIcon -bool NO
then restart PopClip - it should hopefully come back in the menu bar.
2) Failing that - do you have any menu-bar managers running like Bartender, Vanilla, Hidden Bar? Those can sometimes throw a spanner in the works.

Hey thanks for the great app first and foremost! I’ve recently started using setapp and had to immediately get PopClip!
Im also using bartender 4 and my only semi frustration is that Popclip keeps bouncing around between bartender’s two menu bar/lines. is there a way to keep it front and centre on mac (ventrua)'s menu bar?
Thanks!

I don’t know about Bartender, but you can position PopClip’s menu bar item (and menu bar items in general) by holding the ⌘ key and dragging the icon to the right so it is near the clock and thus less likely to be booted from the bar.

Thanks! im going to try that right now, sounds like it should work as bartender doesnt move those (wifi, battery, control center etc)
I run Bartender and have PopClip in the „do not display unless expanded “ section of the menu bar without issues.
