Quick Action buttons in Bottom Status Bar
- @cghague
It would probably be very useful to have the following quick actions as button icons in the status bar next to connection and streaming protocol status, so we don't have to spend extra steps navigating to these commands, which I do all the time.
- Paste (opens up Paste window)
- Control-Alt-Delete (sends the command)
- Screenshot
- Esc (escape button)
- Show Keyboard
Nice to have:
- Paste 1
- Paste 2
- Paste 3
(configurable paste slots for frequently used text) - more efficient than manually having to navigate menus over and over again.

Hi Chris, thanks for your message and your great suggestions!
One of our aims with TinyPilot has been to keep the interface uncluttered and straightforward, so we've generally avoided adding buttons in favor of using the menus. We don't currently have any plans to change this, but I'll share your suggestion with the team as I can see how it would be helpful!
The ability to store multiple snippets you can paste on demand is an exciting idea, and we've already got an issue tracking it. I'll add a note highlighting your interest, as feedback like this is very helpful for us when planning features.
