Alfred5: Login item for v4 is not automatically removed
luckman212 replied to luckman212's topic in Closed
@Andrew Thanks for the reply. But, the first v5 build I downloaded was the GM1 (2057) build. Prior to that I only ever had v4.6.7.1305. So I'm not sure if the fix is working. -
5.0.2057 I had an issue where pasting items from Clipboard History wasn't working, even though I had granted Accessibility permissions to Alfred 5 and rebooted several times. I had to go into SysPrefs, remove Alfred and then re-add him to get it working. This is likely a macOS bug, but it would be nice if Alfred checked his own permissions upon launch and notified the user if they're not correctly set. Hammerspoon as an example handles this nicely, providing a "green dot" when all is good:

typo in Debug WF object (do->to) [Fixed 5.0.1 b2058 pre-release]

On systems with en-US locale, Favourites should be Favorites. There are probably other areas in the UI where this appears, I didn't check them all.

below report is based on 5.0.2057 running on macOS 12.4 on an M1 Mac Mini When upgrading from v4, the old Startup Item wasn't removed, so there was an Alfred 4 item with a yellow exclamation mark left in System Prefs -> Users -> Login Items

Multiple keywords to trigger the same script filter?
luckman212 replied to luckman212's topic in Alfred Feature Suggestions
@Andrew @Vero Any chance this feature will be considered for Alfred 5? (I just bought my license today but haven't downloaded yet...) -
I'd like to suggest a feature: - Allow Universal Actions to appear or not based on a regex pattern match. This would be better than just "Text" or "URL". My Universal Actions list is pretty long and unwieldy. There are easily 30-40 items when I call up the menu. Yes I know latching brings the most used ones to the top, and I know I can filter them by typing a few letters. But sometimes my brain works at very low capacity. Having it limited by regex would make Universal Actions a lot nicer! related tweet: https://twitter.com/luckman212/status/1532802001620414464

I think I found a little bug. Alfred 4.6.6.1303 / macOS 12.4 I have a few script filters that I explicitly do NOT want to show up as Universal Actions. So, I uncheck said box from the Workflow Editor. Great. Now, if you go in to that object and make any changes (clicking Save) ~poof~ the checkbox has silently re-enabled itself. Here's a video repro... https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1992842/171930928-15bd72ce-386e-4965-a03c-4998b6013e18.mp4 I know Alfred 5 is coming, but hoping this might be fixed before then. 🙏

clipboard.alfdb - sqlite3 db - primary key - datahash
luckman212 replied to luckman212's topic in Discussion & Help
Thanks @vitor -- I ended up down a rabbit hole but came out the other end with a solution. At first I was trying to compile a custom build of sqlite with the SQLITE_ENABLE_UPDATE_DELETE_LIMIT flag enabled, but that dead-ended. Then I learned that every sqlite db has a hidden unique column called rowid that I was able to hack into the .py script below. It works well enough for me. Maybe useful to someone else, so I'm posting it here. https://gist.github.com/luckman212/2d87efeb09cce7058ea42eee846effa3 -
clipboard.alfdb - sqlite3 db - primary key - datahash

Nope... not true, sometimes >1 entry have the same timestamp: We really need a unique primary_key in this table... -
clipboard.alfdb - sqlite3 db - primary key - datahash
luckman212 posted a topic in Discussion & Help
I'm trying to do some manual things with Alfred's clipboard db. I notice there seems to be no primary key in the table structure? Is that correct? How can I safely delete the "most recent" entry? Also, why is dataHash always null? thanks -
List Filter - match items that contain Parentheses ( )
luckman212 replied to luckman212's topic in Alfred Feature Suggestions
Hi @Andrew any more thoughts here? We're all the way up to 4.6 now and still can't match words inside parentheses () ... this includes snippets names as well which bit me today as I was looking for something. I hope you're still considering some improvement here, thanks -
Alfred 4.6.5 [1298] macOS 12.3.1 I am growing old and feeble minded. I often add kMDItemKeywords to jog my memory and speed up app searches based on function. E.g. there's a useful app called OmniDiskSweeper to find out what's eating your disk space. I use osxmetadata to add 3 Spotlight keywords: [ 'disk', 'space', 'analyze' ] to aid finding this app when I need it: It works when I type "disk space" in Spotlight: also when I use mdfind from Terminal: but not from Alfred: unless I put a literal comma (,) But not in the reverse order: Here are my prefs: Is this a bug or just a limitation that can't be worked around? thank you

Thanks @deanishe - sure of course I think I chose a bad example keyword ("limit")—probably should have used "window_height" or something. The idea is not to truncate or change the results at all, but merely to control the height of Alfred's window to show fewer or more results at one time. So altering the list prior to outputting JSON would not be the same thing. I have a workflow that displays news articles from a feed, and for example I'd like to show 20 articles in Alfred before I have to scroll. It's currently not possible since there's a max limit of 9 in the GUI. Even if it allowed me to set the height to 20, I would not want this in most cases. But for a couple of workflows it would be useful to have. Hope that explains it better?

Sometimes I would like to show fewer (or more) results from a script filter (with scrollbar). Since this is currently an all-or-nothing setting (with an odd maximum of 9) I am proposing adding a way to expose the limit per-script, something like: { "rerun": 1, "limit": 12, "items": [ ... ] } Thank you @Andrew

Does anyone know if there are any other circumstances that could cause this pop-up to appear? I don't have any workflows that require Python2 anymore, but still occasionally see this pop up on my 12.2.1 system. It usually happens when I first call up Alfred after a cold boot, and I usually have to completely quit and re-launch him to get things working again.
