+You can enable the noVNC clipboard by setting 'clipboard' to 1.
+To use this, you need to install and enable spice-vdagent on the VM Guest.
+Doing this will give you the ability to use the clipboard button on the left
+side of the noVNC console. However, when using SPICE, the default SPICE clipboard
+implementation will be replaced by the qemu-vdagent implementation, which means
+you cannot simply copy and paste in a SPICE session and instead need to use the
+noVNC Button.
