    rr recent document with front most application such as Microsoft Excel or word doesn't work. Is it supposed to work? I get following error message in debugger log: [20:06:01.891] Recent Documents / Apps[Script Filter] Queuing argument '(null)' [20:06:02.301] Recent Documents / Apps[Script Filter] Script with argv '(null)' finished [20:06:02.304] ERROR: Recent Documents / Apps[Script Filter] Code 1: Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 215, in <module> allItemsLinkList.extend(itemsLinkList) TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable [20:06:02.306] Recent Documents / Apps[Script Filter] Expected str, got bytes [20:06:02.308] ERROR: Recent Documents / Apps[Script Filter] JSON error: JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set. around line 1, column 0. in JSON: Expected str, got bytes

    Works great now. Many thanks

    Thanks Vitor. Function plus f makes the application full-screen space or takes it out. I am unable to replicate this with Dispatch Key combo (as function is not a modified key unlike command, control, shift and option). I am now trying to use the code below for step 1 and 3 and see how they can be tied up together. tell application "System Events" key down 63 -- holding Fn key key down "F" delay 1 key up 63 key up "F" end tell

    @vitor How do we dispatch function + f key combo? To move full-screen application from one display to another, can three steps be combined using automation tasks: 1. Key combo to remove application from full screen 2. Move to next display 3. Key combo again to put the application in full screen

    TextEdit - I activated spelling and grammar under Edit - Spelling and Grammar to do spellcheck. Works good. thanks Still looking for a more advanced workflow for more rule-based auto-corrections to clean up transcripts generated by MS teams meetings. would be great to get more ideas and suggestions on it.

    Thanks Stephen. You can upload and share the link. it will be great to do more such as configure some rules and apply them to the text. Find and replace all ‘Yeah’ or auto capitalise first character in a sentence. I would like to hear more feedback on grammarly, pro writing or word tune and if any of these have AppleScript support and can be integrated with Alfred. There is one summariser services in Automator that I intend to try.

    I found answer to this. If the Value_Col returns null value, then the record is skipped. In the environment variables, I changed value_col to 1 which always have a value instead of the earlier column that sometimes had blank values. In debugger log, I found false for such records and then used it to troubleshoot. In the sample demo there is a Liverpool example with 7500 records so I realised there is no max records limitation. This workflow is amazing but just takes time to understand and use!

    Is there any solution to it? It would be great to have a workflow that can spellcheck and suggest sentence corrections. Even Grammarly desktop is difficult to use as there is no accept all features and it keeps basic things that can be auto-corrected (like double space replaced with a single, sentence starting with Capital). It will be great if you can share workflow and other tools that can help in document editing and updating. I convert video / meeting to the transcript for reading through this fast and hoping to have a tool that does regular corrections automatically. Open to AppleScript and related Alfred workflow to achieve this.

    Tried https://github.com/zakyum/alfred-notification-dismisser and some scripts but there are not very reliable. Perhaps will live with notification as it is instead of clearing all.
  11. TomBenz
    Is there a solution to this? I tried the AppleScript at the link https://super-unix.com/askdifferent/macos-dismiss-macos-big-sur-notifications-with-keyboard/ but with no success.
  12. TomBenz
    @giovanni Are there max records that can be retrieved? In the debugger log, I see " [truncated]" towards the end. If I reduce the number of columns retrieved, data from more rows can be returned but incomplete. My dataset has 350 rows and it can retrieve up to 200. Beyond those rows, the workflow doesn't give any result or error message in the prompt or log.
  13. TomBenz
    Yes, this is the design and expected behaviour. I have been using this workflow but it doesn't give a prompt for update. i.e. On my machine, the auto-updater doesn't work. I don't know if there is a pre-requisite that I need to follow or if I can run any diagnostic log that can help you to troubleshoot it. I am an end user and not doing any modification of workflow.
  14. TomBenz
    Comfortable to use both approaches. Just wanted to comment that this command line auto-updater needs to be installed separately.
  15. TomBenz
    Thanks @godbout I upgraded to v2.1.0 manually but still see following: xattr -d com.apple.quarantine WooshyWindowToTheForeground >/dev/null 2>&1 ./WooshyWindowToTheForeground "$1" Auto-updater code line is missing. Should I add it manually? The auto-updater used seems to be different from the usual that I have seen with other workflow from Vitor or deanishe.
  16. TomBenz
    @godboutI use this workflow and it is fast and good. Is screen recording permission safe to give? Can you please explain how it is used? I don't see auto-updater available? Do you have plans to add this? @vitor have you checked or used this workflow?
  17. TomBenz
    For now, just the ability to search bookmarks, search for the bookmark folder name and open multiple URLs from it. It will be great to hear from any active user of this workflow.
  18. TomBenz
    Thanks @vitor I went thru the post. I will try Firefox assistant but then it is confusing to use so many browsers. which one do you use? Are they a good alternative to safari assistant that you can recommend or can this workflow be maintained/updated by another power user here?
  19. TomBenz
    @deanishe @vitor Is this workflow still maintained? I see last update in 2019. Also is @deanishe still active on these forums? I love his workflows. In safari assistant workflow, I use bm keyword to search bookmarks and usually get the one that I am searching for. However I observe that it gives lot of other bookmarks that really doesn't have the search word. Has anybody else observed the same? Any explanation for this behaviour? Perhaps the word can be modified to search only url title, description etc.
  20. TomBenz
    Any feedback from your research on this?
  21. TomBenz
    Wox is not in the list above but has some basic functionalities of launching application and custom search. I also use Parallel and some Alfred functionalities works in windows environment like universal control. Even menubar search works but for parallel application itself.
  22. TomBenz
    @vitor is there an alternative for stopwatch type functionality?
  23. TomBenz
    Yes, this would be great.
  24. TomBenz
    https://github.com/deanishe/alfred-safari-assistant/blob/master/README.md I use safari browser and above workflow to open all urls in bookmark folder using keybword bmf. Perhaps this can be adapted for Chrome.
  25. TomBenz
    Any update on this based on new automation tasks available in Alfred 5? @vitor - kindly suggest My goal / objective : open two files say one word and other video file from finder using universal action and select "Open in split view" regards.
