Alan He reacted to GuiB in Allow scrolling in preview side of the clipboard history
It would be great if the right pane of the clipboard history (the preview side) could allow to scroll to read all the contained text when it is longer than the available space. Sometimes we could have multiple clipboard contents that have some changes further down where we can't see it so we can't really know which one to choose. There's the Large Type (CMD+L) that make it possible sometimes, but other times the text is too long to make it readable using Large Type. So, adding the possibility to scroll the preview would be great! Thanks

Alan He reacted to Vero in Lists of phrases into snippet
@tsolignani List Filters are great for importing from CSV
The file will need to consist of title, subtitle, argument with comma separation, and you'll be able to drag and drop your file in to the List Filter object:

Alan He reacted to noahm in Can't add Safari.app in Hotkeys (in Workflows) [Fixed in 5.1 b2130 pre-release]
Dragging Safari.app from that location does not work either.
Thanks.

Alan He reacted to vitor in QuickLook or Preview in Clipboard History
Indeed it is doable, and without code—or it will be when the new version of Automation Tasks is out (the task for this is already done, but it will be part of a larger release). In the meantime, a single line of code is necessary.
Here’s a preliminary version.

Alan He reacted to vitor in How to go back to previous script filter with shortcut key (i.e "esc") in second script filter?
You’re running a script. It executes top to bottom, and when it exits it returns an output which is then parsed. But what you’re looking to do it is detect when a key is pressed at any point, while at the same time executing the script in full. Those two notions are incompatible.
But you can, for example, add a “Back” item at the top of the Script Filter that will execute the External Trigger.

Hi!
I am unable to drag Safari.app (from /Applications/) from Alfred Preferences → Workflows → Workflow → Hotkeys → Configure Object… → Related Apps
My setup is as follows:
macOS 13.1 (22C65) Alfred 5.0.6 (2110)
Thanks for your time,

Alan He reacted to AlfOfAlfreds in Alfred Quick Look and Markdown files
Hey,
I'm using a very simple Alfred Workflow to list a set of .md files in a directory and I use qlmarkdown and Quick Look to preview these files and het their contant (for context, I'm using these markdown files as cheat sheets to view commonly used commands).
2 short questions:
1. Is there a better way to preview markdown files in Alfred then qlmarkdown?
2. Can I trigger the Quick View in Alfred by selecting the search result? I use `shift` now and I attached the trigger `cmd+y` to be dispached but this does not seem to open the selected file in a preview.
An example of the workflow using `shift` to trigger the preview

Alan He reacted to darthgarm in Workflow: Mini Spotify
"Mini Spotify" is a workflow to quickly pause / play / forward / back with the installed Spotify app. In addition, it fetches album artwork and displays it via Alfred.

Alan He reacted to Andrew in Alfred Gallery — for Themes?
Yep, this is the intention. You can currently share themes to our main site, but I wanted to create a new system instead of migrating over the legacy system. I can't give timescales on when this will happen though.

Alan He reacted to Andrew in Improving Alfred Gallery readme files
The start of this process is happening here:
https://www.alfredforum.com/topic/19058-submitting-workflows-for-the-alfred-gallery/
It's also worth noting that when workflows are submitted for inclusion in the gallery, we help developers tweak and fix things like this with either simple guidance, or Github PRs.
All workflows you download from the gallery are hosted by us. Self-hosted workflows (e.g. a Github release) are automatically picked up by our backend system for review, then signed and re-hosted by us. Once the Gallery is out of Early Access, you should always see nice clean readmes.

Alan He reacted to Vero in Clipboard Manager should have possibility to remove entry from history
@Sane You can clear your entire clipboard history by typing "clear" in Alfred's main search box and choosing whether you want to erase the last 5 minutes, 15 minutes or all of Alfred's history.
Alternatively, you can clear single items with Fn (Function key) + Delete (backspace key).

Alan He reacted to Vero in Should I buy Alfred 5 even if I have Alfred 4 license?
@roeniss Alfred 5 has added a wealth of new features, especially in relation to workflows. Based on your other thread, it sounds like you actively use and create workflows so would benefit from these improvements!
You can find a summary of some of the Alfred 5 features here:
https://www.alfredapp.com/alfred-5-whats-new/
In particular, you'll likely enjoy using the Automation Tasks, which make creating workflows so much easier. This post covers just a few of the Automation Tasks available:
https://www.alfredapp.com/blog/guides-and-tutorials/introduction-to-automation-tasks/
Alfred 5 will also continue to provide support for the changes in macOS that occur every year with Apple's new releases. And you'll of course be supporting us, the Alfred team, by upgrading to Alfred 5
Cheers,
Vero

Alan He reacted to Stephen_C in How to exclude folders from search?
@Alan He's suggestion is what is recommended by Alfred and is probably the best solution for you but you could also create a file filter workflow excluding the relevant folder.

Alan He reacted to vitor in System Settings — Open macOS System Settings Panes
Welcome @LeifJP,
The workflow has icons, more nested prefpanes, and corrects others Ventura broke. You don’t have to use the workflow if you’re not bothered by any of the Ventura changes and don’t need the extra niceties, it exists for those who care about any of that.
