Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Clipy/Clipy/issues/500

Can I use Clipy entire from keyboard. When I have to paste, I first have to use my mouse, click on the Clipy icon on the toolbar and then I can use cmd1, cmd2 etc
Is there a way to enable Clipy without using the mouse. I could not find an option in Preferences to assign a hotkey

Hi, @bindukodwaneyBF
I think you can do that.

First click Settings
open-settings

Then click Shortcuts to open settings for shortcuts.
Here, you can set shortcuts for opening menu variations and clearing history.

And you can use the shortcuts you set to perform actions now.

I hope this helps and good luck!

@mrjwei Thanks for the reply. There is no 'Settings' option in Clipy menu.

Can you please share a screenshot for your Clipy menu?

@bindukodwaneyBF
Hi, thank you for your image.
I guess what you're showing here is CopyClip, not Clipy?

@mrjwei Thank you for catching that. I downloaded Clipy and do see shortcuts in Preferences.
But I am unable to use my keyboard to navigate the clipboard e.g. pressing 'shift+command + v' opens the pop-up menu but then I have to use the mouse to navigate. Is there a way to be mouse free ?
