Is it possible to access the clipboard in a Firefox OS app? If so, how? I know Internet Explorer has a way to do this using window.clipboarddata. However Firefox has never supported this. Do they use this method for Firefox OS or is there a different method or none at all?
In order to access stored clipboard items, please open toolbar popup or right-click on an editable area and then choose clipboard manager in the right-click. Then, click on a desired clipboard item; and it will be inserted to the editable filed.
Smart buttons that allow you to copy URL's directly from the search bar to the clipboard How to Use: 1. Highlight the text you wish to copy. 2. Right click and select "Copy" or press on CTRL+C (Windows) / CMD+C (MAC).
Chosen Solution Hit the Alt key to reveal the hidden Menu Bar to see Edit. Hit the '''Alt''' key to reveal the hidden Menu Bar to see '''Edit'''. Use Ctrl+C for Copy and Ctrl+V for Paste.
Clipboard Manager is an add-on that let you easily store and view clipboard items via toolbar popup. You can also access up to 7 clipboard items via mouse right click (context-menu). Please note that, the add-on only stores clipboard items when you want to "paste" them.
This is not implemented yet, but it is planned for a future version. There is a meta bug for copy & paste support in Firefox OS that you can follow to track progress. It seems that Gecko already supports some Clipboard API events, but there is no UI yet for copy-paste in Firefox OS.
