Paste and keyboard shortcuts
Direct paste and Paste Stack keyboard delivery require Accessibility and a compatible destination.
Default shortcuts
Section titled “Default shortcuts”| Action | Keys |
|---|---|
| Open or hide Stash | ⇧⌘V |
| Search | ⌘F |
| Preview the selection | Space |
| Paste selection | Return |
| Paste plain text | ⇧Return |
| Paste a numbered clip | ⌘1–9 |
| Start or stop Paste Stack | ⇧⌘C |
| Add text in a writable Pinboard | ⌘N |
Clicking a clip attempts to paste it. Hold Command or Shift while clicking to select without pasting. Change available global bindings in Settings → Shortcuts. The menu bar remains a route to Stash if the global shortcut is unavailable.
Direct and manual paste
Section titled “Direct and manual paste”Stash attempts to paste into a compatible editable destination that was focused before opening the panel. With access denied, lost focus, or an incompatible destination, follow the clipboard fallback message. Switch to the target and use ⌘V. Give Accessibility access only if you want to use direct paste.
Paste Stack
Section titled “Paste Stack”Start Paste Stack and copy the items you want in order. With Accessibility and a compatible destination, use ordinary ⌘V to consume one item at a time. Use the stack menu to remove entries, choose Reverse order, or Stop Stack. When unavailable, paste individual items manually.
