  1. Not you can't but you could set a hotkey to do something like this... tell application "System Events" set theapp to (first process whose frontmost is true) tell theapp tell menu bar item "Window" of menu bar 1 click menu item "Bring All to Front" of menu "Window" end tell end tell end tell So you could select the app and just press a key and bring all its windows to the front
  2. Unfortunately not. You could try setting Alfred's hotkey to a Cmd double tap. That would still be relatively easy and would maintain the hotkey you need in CC.
  3. Another option is to go through your workflows and rename the keywords to something more meaningful to you. Perhaps the workflow has a keyword that doesn't really match well with what it does.. you could change that keyword to make it more synonymous with what it actually does.
  4. Another good option for this is just to use Keyboard Maestro. You can create triggers for all kinds of things with it.
  5. There isnt a hook from Alfred for that but you can make a workflow that ran your script then executed the lock system command. Then you can disable the built in lock command
  6. I'm not really sure that this is possible. I attempted to do set up an applescript that would simulate the keypresses and it just sends them into the OS and not actually to the login screen.
  7. Unfortunately, the answer is no to both. You can however setup hotkeys to to toggle Alfred or show the snippets UI. If you want help for doing either, let me know and I'd be happy to help
  8. Following Tyler's note and to agree, it's not available "yet". Alfred Remote is the result of a lot of time and effort on Andrew's part and certainly couldn't be considered a "rushed release". Software is an iterative process. Every software package has updates, fixes, and new feature additions. If any software product was withheld until every possible feature, every fix, every bug, every idea was implemented, we'd never see any of them. That being said, this is only the beginning for Alfred Remote. Andrew has lots of other ideas planned.
  9. The process to convert a current workflow into an item accessible via Remote wasn't designed to be a complex action. All that is required is to add an additional item to the workflow (the same process used to create workflows) to add an Remote Trigger. If you missed it above, Andrew outlined the step necessary for doing this 3-4 posts prior to this one.
  10. Alfred Remote doesn't provide the results panel as you are looking for but, known actions, you could essentially do the same thing. By that I mean, Remote has the ability to do some of the tasks that workflows can do, but, you can also trigger workflows from remote as well. So, if you have a workflow to perform the task in question, you could easily a remote trigger to that workflow and have Alfred Remote execute that. Ultimately Andrew and Vero would be the ones making the call on whether or not there were a trial version but I can say that I have never heard mention of one.
  11. No you can't do that, but if you are a Powerpack member, you could create a result action to do it. This would mean that you select the file in Alfred, press the right arrow, and you would be provided the normal list of options, plus your current one to "Launch in Slideshow Mode"
  12. So are you saying you just want to be able to perform those commands quickly from Alfred? If so, you could make a workflow that has a keyword and a run script item, then in the run script, leave the language set to bash and enter your commands there. These commands are run relative to your workflow directory so if you need to run something from another location you would need to cd to that directory. Alfred also doesn't import your ENV so things like PATH and such aren't there. I say that because, referencing ngrok, you would probably need to launch it with the full path, not just "ngrok <params>" If you need some help setting this up, let me know
  13. The data is stored in plain text so if you are worried about someone getting the data, you may want to be careful. If you can copying text that you are worried about getting in the clipboard history, you can set it so that certain apps, their data is ignored and not placed in the clipboard history
  14. Alfred's relies on Spotlight's metadata to search through your files. So first off, is your NAS currently being indexed by Spotlight? This would have to be enabled for Alfred to be able to search the drive
  15. Have you added the secondary drive to Alfred's search scope in Alfred's Preferences? Preferences->Features->Default Results?
  16. Something is a miss here. Spotlight doesn't index NTFS partitions therefore, it can't be searching your data in Spotlight. If the secondary drive was HFS partitioned drive (a Mac OSX partition) then Spotlight indexing could be enabled on that drive. Once that was done, then Spotlight can index the drive and the drive could be added to Alfred's search scope. Then Alfred would be able to search the drive.
  17. I'm not aware of how to do this programmatically. I think about the closest you could get would be to use the functionality of assigning an app to a Space/Desktop that is built in to OSX. Open the app, right click on it in the Dock and select Options, the select the Display that you want that application to be visible on.
  18. Assuming that you are a Powerpack user? I'm not sure what path you wanted to go down... creating your own workflow or just downloading one that I created for you. Here is a link to a workflow that I have already created for you. If you would like to learn how it was created, let me know and I can walk you through a few things with workflows and how to created them. I set the hotkey to Fn+Right Arrow and Fn+Left Arrow
  19. The clipboard feature would be helpful if you were doing this manually. To automate it though you would need to be familiar with AppleScript as this would require a little UI scripting. The clipboard feature is useful for copying multiple things and then having a UI to view previously copied text and being able to paste multiple past items. As mentioned though, this is a manual step.
  20. If you are a Powerpack member, then the way to do this would be with a workflow. In Alfred's preferences, click the Workflows tab, then click the + icon in the bottom of the list panel on the left. In the menu that appears, click the "Blank Workflow" option. Set the name and other such properties for your custom workflow. Next, in the editor area on the right, click the + in the top right corner. Select to add a Trigger->Hotkey then set the properties for the hotkey. Next, click the + in the top right again and select Actions->Run Script. From here, you can configure what you want to run. You can leave the language set to bash and enter commands to run the script the exact same way you would if you were at a Terminal. Alternatively, you could set the language to Python and enter your code here directly. Once you are done setting up the Run Script, save it and position your mouse over the hotkey item. A little tab should appear on the right side. Click the tab and drag it to the Run Script to connect them. After that, you should be all set. Let me know if you need any more assistance
  21. Alfred should show the disk as an option automatically. Are you certain that the drive is mounted? Is it showing in Finder?
  22. tell application "Alfred 2" to search "Safari" delay 0.2 tell application "System Events" to key code 36 This seems to work perfectly fine for me. Could you test it and let me know how it works for you?
  23. Creating a workflow is not a complicated task. Creating a multistep one similar to what you are needing is a little more advanced though. There may be a way to accomplish what you are looking for but it may actually require a few workflows working together to achieve unless you didn't typing out the path and file extension and such. If that were the case then a workflow with a script filter may work fine. That would allow you to type a keyword for the workflow, the search term, the path, and the extension (all separated by some delimiter, maybe a space) and then it run the query you provided above and show the results in Alfred. Would that suffice?
  24. Wow.. this seems to have gotten way down a rabbit hole since last night haha
  25. Not really... you could make a workflow that would give you a contact action where... if you press enter on the users name for example it would perform some action (open BusyContacts)
