    Andrew got a reaction from flake in Custom Search add/edit not working [Fixed in 2.0.5 pre-release]   
    Been able to reproduce this so I'm looking into this right now - should have a 2.0.4 b200 out today which fixes this

    Andrew got a reaction from Eric P. in Eliminating need for Space Key to search for docs, etc.   
    This is by design to keep the default results nice, tidy and very fast. This is especially important when you start using some of the more advanced workflows.
     
    If this doesn't matter for you, you can select 'Search all file types' in Alfred's Features > Default Results which will show all results by default without the spacebar prefix

    Andrew got a reaction from fxv in Alfred hangs for a few seconds when hitting hotkey   
    Could you check a few things - firstly turn off the 'eject' keywords just in case they are causing the issue (as they discover volumes).
     
    Secondly, restart your Mac without the network drive connected, and then start Alfred, just in case the os x metadata server is looking for that volume when Alfred is trying to query.
     
    Cheers,

    Andrew got a reaction from jdkram in Mini Player shuffle   
    All of those are hacky workarounds which simulate selecting menu items. Alfred avoids these for stability and future-proof. I'm still hoping for direct control over shuffle back into the AppleScript.

    Andrew got a reaction from Angus in I installed v2 but v1 still keeps loading....how to stop?   
    The easiest thing to do is open OS X's "Users & Groups" preferences, select your user, then the "Login Items" tab and remove Alfred from there

    Andrew got a reaction from dathin in Learning Issues   
    Alfred has two ways of learning, overall knowledge of usage and latching. Latching allows specific typed keywords to be attached to the actioned result allowing for quicker relearning of selected results. This is why the youtube keyword [placeholder] wouldn't latch as you never actually action the 'youtube' keyword for the typed phrase 'youtube', it is always e.g. 'youtube car'.
     
    That's why we recommend just typing through your query instead of waiting for youtube to come to the top. As soon as you start typing the subsequent search term, the youtube search will be at the top anyway.

    I already have a ticket for this for the 2.1 release which will improve workflows in general. I'm going to move this to noted to keep bugs focused.

    I'll add defence against this in Alfred, but the behaviour of this workflow will remain undefined, and up to the workflow developer to prevent confusion.

    Andrew got a reaction from chadv in Encoding issue   
    I've created a small command line tool which should hopefully help you re-normalise any strings:
     
    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6749767/Alfred/normalise.zip
     
    If you include this in your workflow itself, you should be able to run it directly like this:
     
    usage: ./normalise -form NFC й
     
    You can add -verbose after NFC to see what is happening, or no arguments to see the options.
     
    Let me know if that helps at all

    Andrew got a reaction from chendeshen in Cheeky little transparency blur hack for themes   
    NOTE!! From Alfred 2.4, the blur setting is in Alfred's Appearance > Options. You won't need to use the defaults writes, but it's still marked as experimental. I plan on implementing the native Yosemite blur at some point and make this an official feature.
     
    This is and always will be a hack, but I'm adding a defaults write preferences item to set the background blur of a window. This will allow you to have nice transparent themes but still readable over busy backgrounds.
     
    There are a few important caveats with this:
    It uses a private OS X API which means it may stop working at any point outside of my control I may take this feature out if it causes general instability and will ignore any moans of "put it back" It disables the 'Fade in Alfred Window' option because these don't play nice together It slows things down lots on slower Macs This will work in OS X 10.9 Mavericks from Alfred 2.3 onwards! To use this hack, quit Alfred and his preferences then type this into Terminal:
     
    OS X 10.9 Mavericks:
     
    defaults write com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred-2 experimentalBlur -int 5
     
    ... the value can be anywhere from 1 to 15 for different blur radius levels, set to 0 to disable.
     
    OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and below:
     
    defaults write com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred-2 experimentalBlur -float 3.0
     
    ... the value can be anywhere from 1.0 to 5.0 for different blur intensity levels, set to 0.0 to disable.
     
    Here is what you should see:

    Remember that you can have more than one keyword input per workflow, so you need to set the text in the 'Keyword Input' workflow object to show in Alfred's bar. Take a look at some of the examples off of the [+] button to see

    Andrew got a reaction from dilipkrish in Clipboard history no longer working   
    This could possibly be a permissions issue. Try quitting Alfred and repairing OS X permissions (Disk Utility.app), then delete the following file in your home folder:
     
    ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Databases/clipboard.alfdb
     
    Then re-start Alfred. That should sort you out
