  1. I've been using Alfred hotkey most of the times. Anyway, It's time to Apple fix such an old and silly bug.
  2. The OSX Finder selection bug is easy to reproduce. Select a file in your Desktop. Open a new Finder window and select an item. Usually, Finder will return the Desktop selection instead of the selection of the top most window. Here is a workaround but it activates Finder which is a huge downside: -- http://lri.me/applescript.html activate application "SystemUIServer" tell application "Finder" activate return selection end tell
  3. In AppleScript the Workflow Library has a notification feature that may help.
  4. Nice article. The solution does not sound complicated. I hope.
  5. The last problem reported here was due an OSX account issue. You can test by creating a new user account in your Mac then trying the workflow. We can also make some tests to see what is the error reported by the system. Please contact me: carlos.sz at gmail dot com By the way, in the previous page I posted a test that you can try too. Link.
  6. The workflow waits for 0.5 seconds for you to release the shift key so please be faster otherwise I’ll have to increase the delay.
  7. Please, download and try a release candidate of version 4.0 of the workflow. There is a hotkey for New File From Clipboard (the second one in the workflow). You can set Keyboard Maestro to trigger the hotkey instead of the keyword which should be faster. In addition, note that the new version uses the keyword nf instead of newf and ns instead of news. Type the keyword nf? for additional help. Downlaod 4.0 RC
  8. Maybe there is something in my Downloads folder that the workflow does not enjoy that much. After the keyword dl I see Alfred search which tells there was an error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "feedback.py", line 70, in <module> do_feedback() File "feedback.py", line 27, in do_feedback downloads = find_downloads() File "feedback.py", line 20, in find_downloads color = get_finder_label(path) File "/Users/Carlos/Dropbox/Alfred 2/Alfred.alfredpreferences/workflows/user.workflow.3A9F6317-CC0B-4D14-9CEC-69417CA8389B/labels.py", line 21, in get_finder_label flags = get_flags(path) File "/Users/Carlos/Dropbox/Alfred 2/Alfred.alfredpreferences/workflows/user.workflow.3A9F6317-CC0B-4D14-9CEC-69417CA8389B/labels.py", line 8, in get_flags path = path.encode("utf-8") UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xcc in position 39: ordinal not in range(128) Nice idea!
  9. In AppleScript, considering the app is running: tell application "System Events" tell process "Frank DeLoupe" keystroke "q" using control down end tell end tell or if it is a system wide hotkey: tell application "System Events" keystroke "q" using control down end tell
  10. Version 2.5 is out: Remove all tags from selected messages (hold control key in keyword mtag) Remove tickle from selected messages (hold control key in keyword mtic) Keyword inbox to access your inbox messages and tag (return key), set tickle (control key) or a project (option key) MailTags version 3.2.2 or greater is required The keyword inbox is a feature that still in progress. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
  11. Unfortunately Firefox does not provide a direct way to get the current tab/window title and link. There is no support for AppleScript. The workflow uses a known workaround that, sometimes, requires a page refresh or reload in order to work properly. Safari and Chrome have AppleScript support and they work without any problem. In resume, reload or refresh the page before getting the clip.
  12. Great! Nice theme by the way.
  13. The XML CDATA could even make some workflows faster since there is not need to parse every single result. Sometimes, using AppleScript, I get search results faster from an application than the workflow can encode XML. I see some serious speed improvements in workflows. I hope it is possible to add in Alfred XML.
  14. OK. Here is a beta version for you to test: keyword ennew: hold command key to create a new note and open it right after keyword enscan: it will start OSX Image Capture, wait for it to get ready (it usually scans a preview) and then click the Scan button (no matter what language) automatically* keyword en: it is possible to preview (SHIFT key) the note in Alfred window; the preview is in HTML which shows all note instead of a small screenshot of it * To use scanning feature please check Enable Access for Assistive Devices in the Accessibility in System Preferences * Don’t forget to set Image Capture to work with Evernote. See a good tutorial here. In resume, drag Evernote.app (from Applications folder) into “Scan To” pop up control of Image Capture window. Download Evernote 6.5 beta 2 now Thank you aleksanderrosenkilde and Davide for your great feedback.
  15. I’m already testing it. Later today or tomorrow I should have a beta version with some new features such as note HTML preview in Alfred and your suggested feature create note and open.
  16. I always use links from Dropbox Public folder and they always work.
  17. Thank you. Do you mean create a new note then see it in Evernote right away?
  18. That would work for an English system. Anyway, what would the workflow look like? 1. you place a paper on a scanner 2. you bring Alfred and type enscan (for example) 3. then Evernote workflow would start Image Capture and click Scan button Is that all? I’ll consider it but it seems it will only work in an English system and Image Capture should be configured before.
  19. New Note from Finder and the upcoming preview feature requires Evernote from evernote.com. The Mac App Store version of Evernote, due the application sandbox, does not work. Image Capture does not have an AppleScript dictionary which means the only thing I could do is open the application. Or do you have something else in mind?
  20. It's Alfred File Filter that is doing that. I think it searches only folder names, not full paths. Try Public and the Dropbox/Public folder should be listed.
