Note

This module requires a wlroots-based compositor. It will not work without the wlr data control protocol.

Shows recent clipboard items, allowing you to switch between them to re-copy previous values. Clicking the icon button opens the popup containing all functionality.

Supports plain text and images.

Screenshot of clipboard popup open, with two textual values and an image copied. Several other unrelated widgets are visible on the bar.
