What Paste + ⏎ does

It is useful for search boxes, command inputs, chat prompts, and other fields where Return submits or continues after a paste.

How to use it

  1. Copy the content you want to submit.
  2. Open ActionClip's paste widget in an empty editable field.
  3. Choose Paste + ⏎. ActionClip pastes first, then presses Return.

Example

Clipboard

ActionClip for Mac

Sequence

Paste “ActionClip for Mac” → press Return

Settings

Open the action's settings from:

ActionClip Settings → Actions → Paste + ⏎ → gear
ActionClip Display settings with Icon with Label, Icon only, and Label only options
Paste + ⏎ uses these three Display styles in the floating widget.

Display

Choose how this action appears in the floating widget. This changes only its presentation, not what it does.

  • Icon only
  • Label only

You can also replace this action's icon from ActionClip → Actions. See change an action icon.

When ActionClip suggests it

Paste + ⏎ appears only in paste mode.

Enabled actions remain available in your Actions list even when Smart Suggestions do not promote them for the current selection.

Requirements and privacy

  • Works locally and does not require Online Actions.
  • The destination must accept paste and Return keyboard input.
  • Return may submit immediately, so confirm the clipboard before choosing the action.
