How to copy item back to system clipboard

To copy the selected item back to the system clipboard, do one of the following:

  • Press ⌘C.
  • Click Copy to Clipboard in the toolbar.
  • Right-click the item, or open the Command Palette, and select Copy to Clipboard.

You can then paste the item anywhere with ⌘V.

By default, ⌘C copies rich text as plain text, and ⇧⌘C copies it with its formatting. To swap them, go to Settings → History and disable Prefer pasting as plain text. For a file, ⇧⌘C copies its path.

If you select part of the text in the preview, ⌘C copies only the selected text.

To make double-clicking an item copy it instead of pasting it, go to Settings → History and choose Copy in Double-click action.
