I have previously used clipboard history in Windows, super + V gives a popup of the saved clips. After reviewing the documentation, I do not see an option like that in CopyQ in Fedora (Gnome) Linux. 

Is it possible to activate the show/hide function to select a recent copy from the keyboard?
Ideally, no or minimal mouse use, though I am in a GUI.

Thank you!

Global shortcuts configured in CopyQ won't work on Gnome anymore (since it uses Wayland by default and AFAIK there is no protocol to set the shortcuts).

The workaround is to set the shortcut in the configuration of the desktop environment. Specifically, for show/hide functionality, you need to map the new shortcut to "copyq toggle" command.
