Yep, that's only for pasting from the Pinned Items. It wouldn't be possible to do what you're looking for with the Pinned Items at the moment, because they can only be set by pinning Recent Items, and re-ordering them manually.
However, I think you could do what you were looking for by creating three separate macros that paste the first 3 items in the History menu. I've attached the three macros needed to do this. You can import them on the Settings > Macros tab, and assign hotkeys to them. Note that when you copy text (Ctrl + C), the last item you copied, will be the first thing in the History menu, so you might want to assign something like Ctrl + Shift + F1 to the "Paste Third History Item", Ctrl + Shift + F2 to the "Paste Second History Item", and Ctrl + Shift + F3 to the "Paste First History Item" macros. That way, if you copy three things using Ctrl + C, Ctrl + Shift + F1 will paste the first thing you copied, etc.
Hope that helps!

Thanks, Keith, that's awesome and almost perfect! Any way to just use a macro to store the text in the clipboard as a string rather than using history items? The way I was using this with AHK, I could continue to use the clipboard without having to worry about it erasing what I had stored in my 3 "custom clipboards" or worrying about their order.
I know it would only work for text if done that way, but that's all I'd need.
Ok, there's not really a reliable way to do it that way right now unfortunately, but we'd love to investigate further to figure out what we'd need to add. Would you be able to send over your AutoHotKey script, so we can get a better idea of how you're achieving it at the moment?
Thanks!
