Clipboard history only pastes most recent item

Alfred Version v2.8.1 (425)

OS X: Yosemite 10.10.5

 

When using the clipboard history, history/latest items are viewable. However, when I hit enter on an item to paste it, the latest item in the clipboard is always pasted.

I suspect this is into a Java app, which is a known issue with Java and the way it caches the clipboard based on the app focus.

 

Try changing Alfred's focus mode to "Compatibility Mode" in Alfred's Features > Options

I couldn't find an Options section on the Features page. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Andrew meant Appearance > Options. In the bottom left, you'll see the "Focusing" dropdown menu, and can choose "Compatibility" there
