Pinned items, global shortcut, and a more polished history view

  • Added pinned items so frequently used clipboard entries can stay easy to reach.

  • Pinned items now appear in their own section at the top of history, with Show All and Show Less controls.

  • Added a global shortcut, ⌘⇧V, so you can open ClipBoardy instantly from anywhere.

  • Improved history focus and scrolling so the active item is easier to find when opening history and switching filters.

  • Clarified history actions by separating Delete and Unpin behavior, with improved bulk actions and confirmation dialogs.

  • Refined onboarding and Settings to highlight quick access and make the menu bar workflow easier to understand.

  • Polished the history view with better section headers, filter indicators, and more consistent thumbnail sizing across colors, images, and files.

1.2.0

Colors, better search, and cleaner previews

  • Added automatic color detection for copied HEX, RGB, HSL, HSV/HSB, and CMYK values.

  • Added a new Colors tab with visible color swatches and format labels like HEX, RGB, and CMYK.

  • Improved the history search field so long queries stay visible while typing.

  • Cleaned up multiline text and code previews in history by reducing extra indentation without changing the original copied content.

  • Fixed shortcut labels in filtered tabs so ⌘1–9 now matches the top visible items in the current filter.

1.1.0

Links, focus, and better history controls

  • Added automatic link detection, a new Links tab, and the ability to open links directly from history.

  • Improved history focus so the active item stays visible when opening history and when switching filters.

  • You can now clear specific item types directly from the history view.

  • Fixed an issue where Protect & Add Alias could behave inconsistently from filtered history tabs.

  • Image and file retention is now managed by storage budgets instead of a strict item cap.

  • Added a first-time rate prompt in the About tab, plus easier access to rating and review actions.

1.0.2

Image, file, and pasteboard fixes

  • Fixed an issue where web-saved images (e.g. .webp) couldn't be restored to the clipboard.

  • Fixed a Finder bug where copying/pasting files could create duplicates with random filenames.

  • Clipboard images from remote sources now get unique, consistent filenames.

  • Fixed an issue where remote images weren't active on the pasteboard unless selected in history.
