General Options

Popup menu at mouse-cursor position

Make the Klipper pop-up menus appear at the position of the mouse cursor, instead of their default position (in the KDE Panel). Useful if you use the mouse more than the keyboard.

Save clipboard contents on exit

If this option is on, the clipboard history will be saved when Klipper exits, allowing you to use it next time Klipper starts.

Remove whitespace when executing actions

If selected, any whitespace (spaces, tabs, etc.) at the beginning and end of the clipboard contents will be removed before passing the clipboard contents to an application. This is useful, for example, if the clipboard contains a URL with spaces which, if opened by a web browser, would cause an error.

Replay actions on an item selected from history

If this is switched on, selecting an item from the history causes Klipper to display the actions pop-up on that item, if appropriate.

Prevent empty clipboard

If selected, the clipboard will never be empty: Klipper will insert the most recent item from the clipboard history into the clipboard instead of allowing it to be empty.

Ignore selection

Sets the clipboard mode. See the section called “Clipboard/Selection Behavior”.

Synchronize contents of the clipboard and the selection

Sets the clipboard mode. See the section called “Clipboard/Selection Behavior”.

Separate clipboard and selection

Sets the clipboard mode. See the section called “Clipboard/Selection Behavior”.

Timeout for Action pop-ups

Set the time that a pop-up menu will remain for if you do nothing with it.

Clipboard history size

Sets the number of items that are stored in the clipboard history.
