How to clear clipboard in AEM6.1 Touch UI?

Hi All,

We are using AEM 6.1 in Touch UI and faced with issue that copied component into clipboard has no expiration (Stored in Local Storage).

Is there a way to clean clipboard via UI (Without manually clearing local storage)?

Thank you in advance!

We have an option to clear clipboard when component is copied in classic UI.

Never saw an option in Touch UI. This looks interesting.

I just came across this issue myself and needed a solution:

There is a javascript API you can access.

Granite.author.clipboard.clear()

If you create a browser bookmark and paste in this script in place of the URL it will clear the TouchUI clipboard when clicked.

javascript&colon;(function()%7BGranite.author.clipboard.clear()%3B%7D)()

replace &colon with a normal colon. It has been converted for forum safety.

Yes I am also facing this issue in touch UI. Do we have option to check clipboard content?
