Problem

Clipbara's bottom history panel is very useful, but I ran into three usability issues:

  1. The Settings window is currently only available in English, which makes configuration less accessible for Chinese-speaking users.
  2. The history panel is a horizontal card list, but a regular mouse-wheel scroll does not move it left or right. It currently requires holding Shift while scrolling, which is less natural for a bottom-mounted horizontal panel.
  3. Quick Look (Space) appears to follow the keyboard-selected clip rather than the clip under the pointer. After opening the panel, the first clip is selected. If I hover a different history item and press Space, the preview still shows the first/previously selected clip instead of the hovered one.

Proposed Solution

It would be great to support the following:

  1. Add Simplified Chinese localization for the Settings window.
  2. When the pointer is over the horizontal history panel, translate normal vertical mouse-wheel scrolling into horizontal movement. Native horizontal trackpad gestures should continue to work.
  3. Make the clip under the mouse pointer the Quick Look target. Pressing Space while hovering a card should preview that card; when nothing is hovered, the current keyboard-selected clip can remain the fallback.

This would make mouse-based browsing and previewing feel consistent with the card under the pointer.

Alternatives Considered

No response

Additional Context

The affected area is the card-style history panel that appears at the bottom of the screen after pressing ⌘⇧V.
