Gotcha. Yes, haven’t found anything that allows that specifically. But in my case I don’t need to enable klipper; it’s always active. No matter which windows I’m in, pressing C-v
will paste whatever it’s in the clipboard; whereas pressing e.g. S-v C-v
will choose the previous item in the clipboard and then paste it.
If you right-click on the Klipper tray icon, select “Configure…” and then “Shortcuts”, you can assign shortcuts to move back and forth in the kill ring, and to paste. I have assigned S-v for backwards and S-C-v for forward. Then the usual C-v will paste. The tray icon also shows you the current selection (and the ones above and below) in the killring, as you move through it.
Personally, not. The reason I switched to Plasma is that I didn’t like the basic layout – horizontal bar especially – and wanted a desktop environment that allowed me to customize positions and sizes of bars and so on as much as possible.
Still baffles me why they steal the screen’s usually scarce vertical real estate with a horizontal bar, instead of putting it on the side…
Great that it’s in the todo-list anyway. I usually use the Any2DjVu server for converting and OCR-ing documents in pdf format. The djvu file is typically 20% size of the original pdf, and the OCR is usually better too. I’ll check on your project regularly for updates :)
PS: nice software your Paperwork. I hope in the future you’ll add support for djvu format – most of my documents are in that format (it saves a lot of memory for scanned documents, compared to pdf).
PS: there’s also another functionality of Klipper that I use from time to time: you can make the whole “killring” appear, and choose the entry you want to paste with the mouse: as you click it it’s entered. This is also bound to a key (in my case
S-w
) and works no matter which window I’m in.
