Clicking / selecting the pinned texts to insert them to active input on some app also makes Ditto to copy that text into clipboard. It's not needed there, the pinned text alredy did it's purpose by going into the input field.
How to disable copying when selecting text ? only leave insert

That's how the data is transferred to the input field, data is placed on the clipboard, focus is set to the last input field, ctrl-v is simulated to get the data into the input field.

Thanks for details. So technically, it would need option checkbox and then if checked, buffer the current clipboard entry, insert the text, focus, ctrl-v simulation and then replace clipboard content from the buffer or if it was empty, empty it.. ?
