How to immediately paste after selection?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey, I'm n00b to Alfred :)
When selecting an item (from snippets or clipboard history) I have to paste it. Is it possible to immediately paste it after selecting an item?
Thanks

For the clipboard go to Alfred Preferences > Features > Clipboard History, click on the Advanced tab and ensure Auto-paste on return is checked. Then all you have to do to paste an item from clipboard history is to select it and press <return>.

 

I'm not sure I quite understand the question about snippets as they are intended to be automatically expanding pieces of text when you type the appropriate keyword. Sorry not to understand but what exactly are you wishing to do with them?

There is a Snippets Viewer separate from the Clipboard History Viewer. You can also show Snippets in the Clipboard History Viewer itself. Those are probably what @asafr means. The solution you posted covers both cases.
