  1. Thanks! In case someone needs to search for files with a specific file type instead of listing them:
  2. File Type Search Alfred 5 workflow, which allows a filtered search for files of the selected file type. Usage Search for a file type via the ft keyword. Press ↩ to select the file type. Then search for a file with the set file type. ↩: Open the file. ⌘+↩: Reveal in Finder. Setup 1. Download latest release of File Type Search.alfredworkflow. 2. Install into Alfred by double-click. 3. Enjoy 😉 Configuration Keyword The keyword used to tauch the worfklow. Interval for reloading system uti database MacOS maintains a system wide database with Uniform Type Identifier (UTI) like `public.jpeg`. Some UTI are managed by the system/ Apple, some are registered by installed software. When triggering the workflow with the keyword, all identifiers are loaded into Alfred. Since the process of getting the systems uti database is pretty slow, this workflow will create a json file with the necessary information when the workflow is used for the first time. When the json database is deleted or the `Interval for reloading system uti database` is passed, the workflow will create a new json file. Acknowledgements This Workflow is heavily inspired by the Simple Folder Search and Dynamic File Search respectively. The workflow icon is also based on these workflows. There is an example for creating a workflow which only searches *.pdf files in the Alfred docs. However, the file type would be static then. This workflow combines the both concepts so the file type can be set dynamically when using the workflow. There is a similar workflow by Stephen_C, which lists all files with a given extension in a given folder. The files are not searchable though. TODO - Find a way to select multiple file types before searching. - Insert option to select a folder as search scope. - Optimize database download. GitHub Repository Source
  3. maybe you could create a workflow which uses key combos to change the profile in the meantime... Something like a List Filter as trigger (which has to be populated manually since Safari offering an api) to select the profile. Then you could use a keyboard combo to open a new window in the given profile. With ⌘ + ⌥ + ⇧ + <number> where 0 is your personal profile and 1 to x are the other profiles you can open a new window in a specific profile. Maybe looking at something like the OpenIn app (haven't tested it myself) might help too.
  4. Alfred 5.1 [2134] macOS 13.3.1 (a) (22E772610a) I created a workflow with a ScriptFilter as input. The script in said ScriptFilter outputs a json like this: { "items": [ { "arg": "redacted", "autocomplete": "redacted", "icon": { "path": "./media/vpn-connected.png", "type": "filetype" }, "subtitle": "VPN:com.tunnelblick.macos (Connected)", "title": "redacted" } ] } This output is formatted according to this article: alfredapp.com/help. All items are listed correctly but the icons don't show up. Solution: Despite the documentation it will work fine when "filetype" in "type": "filetype" is replaced by anything. For example "png", "" or "file" will work. In contrast "type": "fileicon" works exactly as advertised in the documentation. I guess this is not really a bug in Alfred 5 but a wrong/ unclear help-article.
  5. This Workflow solves the problem: https://www.alfredapp.com/blog/tips-and-tricks/open-system-settings-in-ventura/ Additionally you can remove "/System/Library/PreferencePanes" from the "Search Scope" and uncheck "Preferences" on the top in Alfred Settings --> Features --> Default Results so you won't see the old PreferencePanes in your Alfred search result.
  6. This one is under active development and works under Monterey 12.3: https://github.com/dennis-tra/alfred-dict.cc-workflow Please consider buying the dev a cup of coffee when you are using the workflow 😉 Seems with the recent updates form Apple it takes quite some effort to keep tools like this working..
  7. Just wanna say thanks! This workflow ist over the top! Great work!
