@MacDaddy Something will be happening, see the the debugger. I suspect you may missing the Automation Tasks. @zeitlings Just as a general tip (though I’m confident you know this but may not have thought of it when making the quick workflow), an Arg and Vars Utility instead of the Run Script would’ve worked too, but saves the need for the cat lines. Otherwise this is pretty much how I’d have done it too.

Hi, I noticed that alfred is not finding any files on my mac. When I type a space and start typing, it only finds folders that match and not any files. Then I did a re-index by clicking the 'reindex MacOS metadata index'. Then the same. I used the troubleshoot tool to drop a file there and see the result. Originally it showed indexing may not be enabled on macOS. Now it shows the macos metadata as green but there are some yellow warnings as below Any idea how to fix this? I have not tried deleting the .Spotlight-V100 folder yet. Wanted to post here before I do that. Thank you! Starting Diagnostics...

You are my hero!!!

Appreciate this. I do have the === added in and I do have the cat << EOB and the end EOB, but when I use the keyword, nothing happens, so wondering if I'm missing something. Vero's solution does not help as hers uses commas and newline which will not work for mine as they are jokes, so they contain commas AND newline in many of them by default.

v2.5.0 has more actions that can be called from the Grid View (integrated with CleanShot), allows multi-select via File Buffer, and some additional Workflow configuration options as well such as Grid Size and trigger keyword. https://github.com/luckman212/alfred_clipsaver_workflow/releases/tag/2.5.0

Great stuff Vitor! Thank you as always. I've pushed a 2.5.0 update jist now that makes use of both of these!

Almost the same thing, but with your quotes and an additional method to provide your input. You can also paste your quotes in the Arg and Vars object, where you don't have to wrap your text in "cat << EOB / EOB". You just need to decide on a delimiter with either approach. https://transfer.archivete.am/h0bL1/Test | Quote Randomizer.alfredworkflow

Hi Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately that is what is what I done in the first place. I can use that icon to flick through the various backgrounds but I do not like any of them, thats why I wish to revert to the original setting but I cannot find a way to do it.

I'm using the Oblique Strategies as the base, all I've done is change the contents of the Random to my quotes. The issue I have is that I'm using quotes that already contain commas, so I can't use those to separate, and there are quotes with new lines included because the are technically jokes/Puns so leaving it on a single lines makes it strange to read This is the contents of the Random section. I've tried with less space and mroe space with the same results:

When reporting issues, please include your exact installed versions of: The Workflow.Alfred.macOS. In addition to: The debugger output. Perform the failing action, click “Copy” on the top right and paste it here.Details on what you did, what happened, and what you expected to happen. A short video of the steps with the debugger open may help to find the problem faster. Thank you. Accurate and thorough information is crucial for a proper diagnosis which allows me to help you better.

Usage Copy rich text, images, and other special data from the clipboard with the richsave keyword followed by your snippet name. Restore a snippet to the clipboard and paste it to the frontmost app with the richsnip keyword. Use ⌘↩ to delete a snippet. Configure the Hotkeys for faster triggering. Triggering Like Regular Snippets You can paste rich snippets like the others by creating a new workflow with a Snippet Trigger. Connect it to an Arg and Vars Utility with the name of the snippet as the Argument. Finally, connect it to a Call External Trigger Output referencing restore_snippet in this workflow. There is an example you can copy at the bottom of the Workflow canvas. ⤓ Install on the Alfred Gallery | Source

Uhm, in that example the quotes are separated by three equal signs "===" and the Split arg is set to split accordingly. If your separator differs, you will have to change it to the delimiter you need. Also, note that you will need to preserve the cat << EOB in the beginning and EOB at the end of the Run Script object. Your quotes would go in between those two. Never mind though, if Vero's solution is working for you. In that case I am suggesting an unnecessarily complicated solution anyway.

@MacDaddy It's usually easiest for us to help you if you share your workflow in progress I've just shared below my own random signatures workflow, which contains three possible signatures, each with a comma halfway through, and set to being separated by newlines. https://www.dropbox.com/s/kg8wqem8rgn5z54/Random Signature.alfredworkflow?dl=0 Let me know how that feels!

Thanks. But I can't seem to get it working. I put my quotes in and used the separator but when I do the Keyword nothing happens. Am I missing a step to get it to trigger?

In the meantime, here is a quick workaround: https://transfer.archivete.am/I2fsB/Test | Quote Randomizer.alfredworkflow

I'm trying to setup a random quote generator, but the only options in Random are Words separated by comma or newline and Words separated by newline. Could we have an option where we can input a specific separator, like perhaps ; | or --- Since I'm using quotes, many of them have commas in them already, and when I use just 'newline' it copys ALL the quotes to the clipboard rather than just a single one since they all have newline between them. I've attempted to put additional spacing to see if that would help, but I'm still getting everything in the Clipboard.

Glad you like it! And thank you for the suggestions. Few notes on the bottom two: You can, by overriding the object’s JSON. Both Thumbnail Navigation and Short Films do that. The File Buffer works in Grid View too.

You should be able to change the background color by clicking on the icon that looks like two overlapping triangles in the upper right hand corner of the appearance editor.

I had my first play with Grid View yesterday and it's very slick! 🏆 I have a few suggestions if you'll hear them: I know about ⌘0 but it would be fantastic if ⌘+ and ⌘- could "resize" the grid, increasing or decreasing the size of the thumbnails. Dovetailing with that, a way to programmatically set the grid size via JSON or workflow variable would be lovely to have And finally my "reach" request (I know it's a big one) - Multi-Select (similar to the way fzf works if you've ever used it). TAB key to mark/unmark an item and then ENTER to pass all selected objects to the output.

Hi. I have changed the the background in Alfred settings appearance. I use the modern theme. I changed the main background image and I wish to restore the default colour. Can anyone help? I have uninstalled Alfred using homebrew but I still have that background image. Not the end of the world, but it's irritating . Thanks in advance for your help. AdrianV

Thank you very much @sepulchra. I appreciate your assistance Thanks @Andrew
