I had a handy hot key I had (ctrl-alt-cmd-c) did a "Show Contents

I don't remember hearing this one before, it's nice if your clipboard
contents are short though I would think it would make more sense on a
mouse trigger than a HotKey one (I think this for most menu commands
since you need to use the mouse ultimately).
It made sense to me!
After upgrading to Leopard, this now causes my PM Dual G5 to thrash
quite badly and give me multiple instances of the submenu of
Actions.

Any ideas?
QS ß54 & ß56 both display this.
I was going to say make sure you don't have any Unknown Objects on
the
history but the screenshot shows you don't. When I try it I don't get
the duplicated submenu. B54, 10.5.5, Intel, Clipboard plugin B9,
Mouse
Triggers plugin 142. I think it's the mouse triggers plugin that
provides the Show Contents Menu action.
I've not got Mouse Triggers installed, yet still have Show Content
Menu action available.
I don't know what's causing the problem. Clearing the clipboard
history would be my first attempt. After that try a clean install.
Quit Quicksilver, rename ~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver/
and restart QS. You'll lose all your configuration but you'll see if
it's a config problem (or corruption) if it works. If it does work
you
can try moving items back from where you renamed them (while QS isn't
running) and see if they break things.
I started from scratch completely and it happens regardless.
On your same hotkey I have Clipboard History (Show Contents) which
shows them in a results list in the main QS command window, so I can
quickly type to select an action though I usually hit shift-command-P
while in the first pane to perform the Paste action (my default text
action for the letter P). Since it doesn't use the mouse, you might
like it.
That's what I've resorted to in the end. Thanks for checking it out
though!
There have been some PPC specific issues and I could believe that
particularly for Leopard. I'm curious if others could try it out on
PPC and if anyone has success.
