I'm considering switching to Alfred, since it performs more tasks than my current launcher which is QuickSilver.
It looks very promising, however there is a workflow that I do frequently using QuickSilver and does not seem possible in the free version of Alfred, and I am not sure if this can be achieved with the PowerPack either.
Steps
- Bring up popup window with shortcut
- Type name of application (e.g. preview, photoshopt, etc…)
- Drag and drop a file (or folder) from finder into the icon
Result
- The app is opened with the selected document
I tried a similar behavior with Alfred, but the popup window disappears as soon as I start draggin a Finder icon.
I read on this forum something about a cmd-opt-\. But I do not understand how it's supposed to work, and I did not manage to make it work.
Thanks in Advance.
