Those are keys like Command and Option, which are arguably the most important keys on your keyboard, because they can perform shortcuts that are impossible with only a single key.

With the Pasta window visible, use the arrow keys on your keyboard to select the clipping you'd like and then hit the Enter key.No matter what you’re doing on your Mac, whether you’re working or streaming your favorite TV show, you’re most likely using the modifier keys on your keyboard.

You'll see a little shortcut appears at the bottom right corner of the first 9 clippings.

With the Pasta window in front, hold the command key.

With the Pasta window hidden, press the global shortcut (⌘⌥V by default) and, without letting go of the modifier keys (command and option in this case), press the remainder key of the shortcut (in this case the V key) repeatedly until the clipping you want is selected.

In addition to just double-clicking the clipping, Pasta offers a couple more ways to do this just using the keyboard: How do I quickly select and copy/paste a clipping? To allow it to hide again, just click the anchor icon again. To prevent Pasta window from hiding, you can 'anchor de window' by using the anchor icon on the top right corner of the window. How can I keep the Pasta window from hiding? To install the helper app, simply launch the installer and follow the instructions. To enable pasting, we made a little helper app that runs in the background and can be downloaded here.

However, it cannot do it out of the box because apps submitted to the Mac App Store are not allowed to control other applications in that way. Can Pasta paste directly into other apps? If you prefer Pasta not to manage your sensitive clippings, you can turn on the 'Ignore passwords' feature in the Preferences window. You can temporarily de-obfuscate passwords by holding the option ⌥ key on your keyboard. It will encrypt it when saving it to the hard drive so they are as secure as they were in the apps you copied them from. It will obfuscate these clippings on-screen so people around you can't read them. When you copy sensitive information in apps like 1Password, Keychain Access, Pasta will do a couple of things differently than with regular clippings. You can also use the keyboard shortcuts ⌘+ and ⌘- to add or remove rows or ⌘⌥+ and ⌘⌥- to add or remove columns.

Clicking the wheel icon in the top right corner of the Pasta window, choose Preferences (⌘,), you'll see two text fields labeled 'Rows' and 'Columns'. You can do this in the Preferences window. How can I customize the number of rows and columns?
