Differences from 1.0

The window can be resized like any other window and the history list is now scrollable.
Pinned items are shown without dots and stick to the scrollable history list.
Appearance preference Number of items removed. Instead, vertically resize the main panel window according to your needs.
Appearance preference Title length removed. Instead, horizontally resize the main panel window according to your needs.
Advanced preference Avoid taking application focus removed. The focus will always remain on the active application, similar to how Spotlight works.
A pin letter "V" can no longer be used since it's reserved for a system paste shortcut.
