Internal Clipboard

Alan_Bes · October 29, 2015

Due to the repetitive nature of inserting references it would be wonderful for Zotero to have an internal clipboard from which the last couple of references can be copied into a document. I'm finding that in a long document it is painfully slow to now insert references and even more painful that many of these references are repetitive. As a work around I'm using Ditto clipboard manager but it would be nice to have this as feature in Zotero.

You can copy and paste the live citations in your document using the system clipboard.

Yes, but with limitations. the system clipboard captures all copied/cut items. This request is for an exclusive internal clipboard that only lists cited references.
More importantly though, as far as I know, the systems clipboard cannot be hot-keyed to paste individual items listed. That would be first prize, and hence my using of ditto.

It seems that Ditto is for Windows only.

CopyQ is one cross platform clipboard manager.
