XFCE clipboard won't save more than one screenshot?

I took some screenshots, and saved them to the XFCE clipboard (Clipman) because I hadn't decided whether to keep them permanently. The second one apparently displaced the first. So Clipman won't save more than one screenshot at a time?

I'm not familiar with that particular plugin, but that's the way clipboards usually work. Anything you save to it overwrites and deletes what is already there.

So if you want to save multiple things, copy the first to the clipboard, paste into another app and save it, copy the next, paste and save, repeat.

If you're asking about https://mintguide.org/tools/540-the-...inux-mint.html
It does seem to be able to keep a history. Check the configuration as described.

Otherwise, what KenJackson said.

I do know about the history, yes. I think I have it set to 200 or 250 entries.
