Sorry about that. Should be fixed now: Download

Thanks for the prompt response! this is a great workflow, thanks for the work you've put in!

Do you know whats causing workflows that worked in the past to present this issue lately?

This is doing the same thing as a lot of my workflows at the moment, the keyword doesn't seem to work... http://imgur.com/1m8p3U6.png

Hello Simon, I had problems with the setup:

I got stuck here:

At the step below, I did not have the choice "create archive," please advise?

"Now you’re almost done. Select all the files in the directory, right click them and choose “Create archive”. Change the extension of the newly created archive from .zip to .alfredworkflow. It is important that you do not archive the folder but only its contents."

 

Thanks

The alternative will say 'Compress * Items'

* being number of files selected

Thanks thats a great workflow, can see myself using it a lot.

Perhaps try resetting Alfred2? Open preferences, click on the advanced button, then, click the "Clear Knowledge" button, and maybe also beside 'Files / Apps' clear the cache and rebuild meta ... although I don't see why that might matter here.

 

Out of curiosity: When you type 'xabout' DOES it in fact delete the txt files in the workflow folder?

Reset those options but still having the same issue. Where would i locate the workflow folder?

Thanks

Hmm, that is ODD. The only thing I can think of, is delete the workflow, download it again from the first post and reinstall it. I can think of no reason why it should be linked to the old profile in any way.

still no luck, very baffling

Type "xabout" and it should reset the workflow ... rewriting all the necessary files for the new machine.

I tried this but still get the system info on the old machine, everything else seems to be correct. Thanks

Great workflow RodgerWW, I'm having an issue I believe due to moving my profile from a older machine using time machine. The workflow shows the system information for the old machine, is there anyway to fix this?

Thanks

Great workflow, I am also going to be using this with Sublime. I was wondering is there anyway to ensure the selected text opens in a new tab not a new window as i have Sublime running most of the time with various columns and tabs.

Thanks

Here we go. The following actions are available on the file:

• ENTER: Copy file path (incl. filename) to clipboard
• ALT+ENTER: Copy filename to clipboard
• CMD+ENTER: Copy the file itself to clipboard

Download

 

I'll add Alleyoop support and move the workflow to GitHub this evening or tomorrow.

Thanks a lot for this, going to be using this workflow regularly. Could the width and height themselves be actionable and copied to the clipboard?

That would be great, ill try use it as an Aflred File Action, I need to get myself into the habit of using Alfred more for file browsing anyway.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Give this one a try. 

Can you explain how to use this workflow Marko? I've selected a file within finder then actioned Alfred and typed 'dim' with no results so far. Should i be doing something differently? Does the file need to be located within Alfred? Appreciate the assistance!

I'm wondering if anyone has ported over this extension http://cl.ly/911u or knows of a similar workflow.

Been trying to find a quick way of determining an images dimensions when its selected within Finder.

Thanks

I could definitely do that! It'll be part of the next Dash update.

Thats great, looking forward to it. Thanks for creating such a great time saving application. I dont want to try turn this into a help thread but could i just ask, when the snippet panel appears for you to enter your placeholders, is there anyway to stop that panel disappearing when clicking to another application, or outside of the snippet window. I often require various urls to be inserted within my placeholders (not just the one copied to clipboard) and when i click over to my browser the snippet panel disappears. An example of this senario '<li><a title="__title__" href="@clipboard"><img src="__image-url__" alt="__title__"></a></li>'

Thanks again

I'm not really sure about this one... What if you want to search for a snippet to edit it and not just use it? It would definitely be useful in most of the cases, but sometimes it might be really frustrating as it would take you out of your regular workflow (using Alfred) and would cause you to open Dash and search for the snippet there.

This situation often arises when using Alfred workflows, the solution is to create a second action, for example actioning return would open the snippet in Dash(as it does currently) but if cmd + return was actioned it would initiate the snippet in the location you were in before entering Alfred.

I'm no expert with this stuff but I've seen this done in the 'Symbols' workflow by Piotr Wilczyński and it would work great with the Dash snippets.

I've just purchased Dash as its gonna be much easier for me to use than CodeBox, addition of this feature would make it even more useful.

P.S: here is a link to the symbols app, holding cmd,alt or fn before actioning pastes a different symbol code for each symbol.

The current workflow searches snippets as well. If you want a workflow that searches only snippets, you can set up a "Snippets only" search profile in Dash, add a keyword trigger to it and then set up the current Dash workflow to search using that keyword.

Just updated Dash today and seen how great this works with Alfred, think I'll be purchasing and moving over my snippets from CodeBox.

One question, I can locate snippets in Alfred but when i action them how do i stop them being opened in Dash and initiate them within the application i was in before accessing Alfred.

doh :/ i did a search for 'domain' and searched google aswel.

sorry about this, mods can remove as that workflow is exactly what i was looking for.

thanks

Noticed this extension for v1 of Alfred and wondered if anyone had created something similar for v2?

http://nielsstampe.tumblr.com/post/14402922960/domain-checker-for-alfred

It checks the availability of domain names and displays the results.

I think something that worked like http://www.domainr.com inside Alfred would be nice.
