Penc icon indicating copy to clipboard operation
Penc copied to clipboard

Activates on single tab and hold instead of double tab

Hi, the problem is, that Penc get activated when I single click and hold the key. This is extremely bad, because so Penc gets activated if you e.g. try to select text with your keyboard and hold the key (in my case OPTION to select whole words) to do so. I have moved the activation key to OPTION, because double click on CMD starts my clipboard history from Alfred. But I discovered this behavior on all keys.

Short update on this. After restarting Penc, the behavior is gone. I don't know exactly why this happened.

Hmm, activating with a single cmd tap + hold is not the normal behavior for sure. Maybe you just hit cmd before that key press?

Unwanted activations were worse before version 1.0.0, that's why I added hold duration to activate option in Preferences. After second tap you need to hold at least 100ms (by default) to activate Penc. This prevents activations copy&paste combos (at least for me). Maybe you can tweak that options?
