Yeah, well, the only thing I'd really like to hide is the file path, as I think there is simply just too much 'noise' in the in the window, when it's enabled.
-
So currently, due to me having hidden the result subtext, the dictionary definitions look like this:
In this mode, which does make Alfred prettier to look at, the dictionary definitions aren't really usable.
So I'd like to be able to set that dictionary entries in Alfred are allowed to override the policy with hidden subtext.
Is that possible?

Thank you so much, deanishe! It now works perfectly.

Of course, sorry about that.

Hey everybody!
I am working on this workflow where I have a file filter with the most important text files (for me, at least) to open with vim in iTerm.
Currently I have it configured so that I can choose to just run vim and get a new document or I can choose to run "v $SOMEFILE" in Alfred to make it open that way.
It's super cool, I've used https://github.com/stuartcryan/custom-iterm-applescripts-for-alfred/ and Macvimtoolbox as inspiration for this. There is one bug, however.
When the active iTerm window is not just showing a prompt but engaged, then the script doesn't open a new windows but just pastes the "nvim /path/to/file" into the window. I'd like to configure the Apple-script to just open a new window in that case. How do I do that?
The code I'm using is here, btw:
on alfred_script(q)
my runIniTerm( "nvim " & q & "" )
end alfred_script-- This is v0.5 of the custom script for AlfredApp for iTerm 2.9+
-- Please see https://github.com/stuartcryan/custom-iterm-applescripts-for-alfred/
-- for the latest changes.on is_running(app_name)
tell application "System Events" to (name of processes) contains app_name
end is_running-- Please note, if you store the iTerm binary in any other location than the Applications Folder
-- please ensure you update the two locations below (in the format of : rather than / for folder dividers)
-- this gets around issues with AppleScript not handling things well if you have two iTerm binaries on your system... which can happenon runIniTerm(q)
if is_running("iTerm2") or is_running("iTerm") then
run script "
on run {q}
tell application \":Applications:iTerm.app\"
activate
try
select first window
set onlywindow to true
on error
create window with default profile
select first window
set onlywindow to true
end try
tell the first window
if onlywindow is false then
create tab with default profile
end if
tell current session to write text q
end tell
end tell
end run
" with parameters {q}
else
run script "
on run {q}
tell application \":Applications:iTerm.app\"
activate
try
select first window
on error
create window with default profile
select first window
end try
tell the first window
tell current session to write text q
end tell
end tell
end run
" with parameters {q}
end if
end runIniTermThe workflow can be found here:

Alfred gradually loses Spotlight results
in Discussion & Help
Posted
Hey,
I have a problem, where Alfred loses the ability to search in files. I think I've tried to "rebuild macOS Metadata" six or seven times now, and every time the results is the same: After the reindex has been done, Alfred is able to search for the contents of any document just fine. But within an hour or two, the results gradually disappears until I'm left with a pretty crippled file search.
E.g. if I search for a term it will show still fewer file results. The order of the files disappearing is always the same.
There are no problems whatsoever with searching for the same terms in Spotlight.
I search the contents of my pdfs quite often, so it's a vital feature for me.
