That is the way. Snippet Trigger → List Filter. Set the latter as “Argument Optional” to see all lenses from the start.
Thank you!

Is it possible to create a multiple-choice snippet? So a list pops up and I can choose the snippet I want to expand? As a photographer, I have several different camera and lens combinations that I like to select from when posting info on a photo I upload to social media. I would like to trigger a popup menu to show the 4 different camera/lens combos that were used to add to the caption. Is this possible with the Snippets tab, or is there a workflow I can create that will allow me to do this?

Yeah, I'm not looking at having to train Alfred. The feature I'd like should be a no-brainer. Trying to launch Firefox, I want to use "ff" to launch it. I haven't been able to get "ff" to even have Firefox show in the results to select it. Hopefully a developer will see this post and see the need. 🫤

After first installing Alfred 5 last week, I typed the letter "S" to bring up Safari, but to my surprise, Safari wouldn't even show up until I typed "saf". It would be nice if the developer would include, in the preferences, a list of all the apps, and then be able to edit each app with a custom letter combo that could be saved. I don't think this would be too hard. This would make the initial setup so much easier than the current training method.

I just moved from LaunchBar to Alfred 5. Launchbar had one feature that I loved, but can't find out how to do it in Alfred. In Launchbar I could assign custom characters to have an app show up and be able to launch it. For instance, I would type a "p" to have Apple Photos, and the a "ph" to have Adobe Photoshop. These were custom and could be changed to any letter combos in Launchbar, but this critical feature is missing in Alfred. Is there a way to do this?

I have this same problem too. The training is a pain sometimes. Will there be a feature in a future update (4?) that will let you actually edit each app with a custom letter or letters? LaunchBar lets you choose the letter combo for each app, but LaunchBar is a little too plain for my tastes.

rewording a section for clarity
This solution absolutely fixed the problem for me. Thank you for this tip! It was happening on the latest version of Alfred 5 (as of 3/20/2023). I was using Typinator, which is a FANTASTIC text expansion app, but I like having the feature in Alfred 5 just to have less apps on my Mac that only do one thing. Now if the devs can only simplify creating a popup list of snippets, rather than using a clumsy workflow! The workflow DOES work, but it has to be the most unintuitive setup of any feature in Alfred.
