  1. Hi all, I used a lot the Send URL by Jonas Eriksen, but now that I have upgraded to Sierra (yes, I waited some time for...), ir stopped functioning, at least for my needs. My essential use of it was simply while navigating in Chrome, open at any time the current Chrome tab address in Safari, and that's all. now the send url to Safari entry has disappeared... In the GitHub page the last update is 2 years ago... I'm looking for a replacement, any idea? thank you, Giulio
  2. HI, it seems that you have simply added the folder to Alfred's buffer the buffer is a place where you temporary add files/folders while browsing, and then you'll be able to perform an action on them all at the same time here some info about adding files/folders to and using the buffer, and how to remove them https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/file-search/#file-buffer Giulio
  3. Thanks to deanishe for the excellent and superuseful workflow
  4. I am very happy using Glosbe translation workflow http://www.packal.org/workflow/glosbe-translation out of the box, it is ready for english/german translation ende word - will translate from english to german deen word - will translate from german to english but it was very easy to customize the workflow to add new languages, so now I have also enit word - english to italian iten word - italian to english and more... hope it helps, Giulio
  5. Open Alfred preferences, click on Snippets on the left bar, and change he Hotkey it should be quite easy to find Giulio
  6. Just a guess: did you try to go on appearance - fonts tab, and try to change the font used by the thrme, trying first 'System' or 'System light'? Giulio
  7. Yes, somewhere on the help page https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/contacts/ Giulio
  8. Well, I think there could be a solution, but a little tricky to implement. Using Applescript you could be able to display a dialog to the user and accept an input, then you could use the value to override the workflow environment variables. obviously that will not work at installation time, but at the first launch, after you control the missing value here you have a startup: place on your workflow an osascript AS object, and paste this code: on run argv set theName to the text returned of (display dialog "What is your name?" default answer "") end run running it you will have a dialog appear, asking the user for input if you link a 'post notification' object after that, you will se what the user has entered (I think the AS output is simply the last variable set, theName in this case) I'm quite sure that also in Javascript, if used as OSAscript, you can display a dialog, if you feel more comfortable with javascript... once obtained the value, you should be able to set it as workflow variable: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/advanced/variables/ hope this helps a bit, Giulio
  9. You should investigate the 'merging' option in Alfred preferences > Clipboard enabling it you can use cmd - double C to append the text to the previous you can choose to put a separator between copied strings, such as space or a newline, and you can choose if the merged text will be placed again in the macOS clipboard, so you can simply use cmd-V to paste all the previous copied lines, or you can find the merged text on Alfred's clipboard history hope it helps,
  10. Hi, indeed a cool dock I was able to change the Alfred pref icon on the dock pasting the new icon on the Information window of the pref app ( Alfred 3.app/Contents/Preferences ) a quick test: I have opened the info of a folder that has a custom icon using Cmd I, I have clicked on the icon on the top left and copied with Cmd C opened the info of the pref app, selected the icon on the top left and pasted the new icon Giulio
  11. Hi, what do you mean about not being able to add the files to the buffer? You should be able to navigate the file list using the arrows and use alt-arrow up to add the current file to the buffer or use use alt-arrow down to add the file to the buffer and move to the following file (faster) and then use alt-arrow right to action them all or maybe I have not got your question?
  12. Hi, in Alfred preferences go to File System -> Navigation
  13. Sincerely can't see where the problem is that message is shown only the first time the app is opened, so you should simply open the app directly the first time or am I missing something?
  14. But if you move the Alfred window it will stay where you put it the next time it appears. Doesn't work this way for you?
  15. Surely I'm missing something, but shouldn't be order of the objects (from top to down), to specify the execution order?
  16. It's something that is arriving. is already in Alfred 3.1 pre-release. from the change log: Update "Delay" workflow utility to accept fractional seconds e.g. 0.5
  17. What a nice workflow! ottimo lavoro, Emanuele! I have just a comment, if I can make a suggestion: I did try to remove the code that finds the item icons, and indeed all the stuff seems to be "snappier" and a lot faster, especially with a lot of windows opened. So I think it could be possible to: 1) have the workflow contain and assign directly the icons for common processes ( finder, mail, safari, etc ) 2) for less common processes, cache the results so only one icon search would be performed if more than one window is opened I think is a good good workflow for everyday use, gaining something in terms of speed would maker it perfect! thanks for doing and sharing it, Giulio
  18. LCC is quite fast because the database is local, and done by me... well, I'll see what's feasible in the near future, depending on other tasks to do to live I'll keep in touch when I'll have something ready ...
  19. I can confirm the thing, and made a bug report
  20. Hi, I found a strange behaviour that maybe makes sense to note. I have experienced it on my workflow, but I have created a little 'test workflow' to isolate it. the workflow has only one script filter and a post notification to see if the action on the filter goes on. the script filter has this php code: <?php $items = []; $item = array( 'title' => "No results with this filter", 'subtitle' => "This is an item that should not be actioned", ); array_push( $items, $item ); $stringa = '{"items": '.json_encode($items).'}'; die($stringa); ?> that simply outputs an item without 'arg' and without a 'valid' parameter, that in my intentions should not be actioned. the strange thing is that if the script filter has the 'Argument required' option, effectively the item will not be actioned, while if the script filter has the 'Argument optional' set the item will be actioned and I will see the post notification hitting enter (idem with 'No argument') I know now, thanks to deanishe, that setting 'valid' to false will avoid the item actioning in both cases, while I was convinced that not setting an arg was enough, but maybe is a difference that worths a check? I have Alfred 3.1 pre-release, don't know sincerely if the problem was always there before OSX El Capitan 10.11.6
  21. Hi nemrod, first of all thank for your feedback Yes, in my mind the natural continuation would be something about html... but I have 2 problems: 1) so little time aside of my living job 2) sincerely I wouldn't know where to start; I mean, CSS is a list of parameters, with every one with its possible list of values, so I can easily put them in a database while html is: indented, with each tag inside another one; variable, think about an html table, than can have th (header or not) and an indefinite count of rows and columns; short tags, I wouldn't know the best way to filter them in a an effective way; at the moment I couldn't know how to start (I didn't spent any time thinking of it indeed) sure I could setup something where typing div you have <div></div> pasted, but it seems too little to me as a way to help write html effectively and faster... please I'm open on suggestions about how the filter could be done to have some html pasted, and we could setup something nice over time so make me an example of how it could work to be effective
  22. Yes, I confirm. It seems that if I output an item without 'arg' and 'valid' in a 'script filter', the item is not actioned if 'Argument required' is set, actioned if 'Argument optional' is set. setting valid to false is required to be sure the item can't be actioned, as you suggested me. I want to create a test workflow to isolate the behaviour, since mine has become quite complicated If confirmed, do you think I should segnalate this as a bug?
  23. deanishe, but in my case I'm not outputting an empty arg, I'm not puttin arg at all in my JSON, so it shouldn't be actionable, true? when I said 'arg is empty' I was incorrect, I should have wrote arg is absent and the strange thing is the different behaviour in the 2 script filters, depending on the "Argument required" or not setting... anyway, setting valid to false does the trick, so THANK YOU as usual
  24. OK. semi-got it all in all, I just discovered today the "Dont't close on actioning" option... time will teach me!
