  1. Hi folks, I have just published a new Alfred Workflow that allows you to interact with Timing for time tracking.

    It can do the following:

    1. starting, stopping, and toggling timers

    2. pausing and resuming tracking

     

    It provides hotkeys, keywords and remote buttons for the most important tasks.

    It allows filtering projects and set a title and note when starting a new timer.

     

    Here are some screenshots:

     

    The "Control Center":

    Starting a new timer (it will ask for title and note afterward, use the command modifier to start immediately):

    The workflow:

    The workflow can be found on GitHub.

    I will publish the releases in this thread.

    Really eager to use this workflow as I switch audio sources often.

     

    Just installed this with the latest MacOS on an M1 MacBook Pro, but it does not show up.  Thanks for any help.

    I get this in the bug report:

     

     

    Sorry for the delayed response.
    This sounds like your Mac has problems executing the Swift script.

    Have you installed the Workflow from the Gallery (https://alfred.app/workflows/tobiasmende/audio-switcher/) or from the forum?

    I thought the requirements are pre-installed in the modern Mac versions, but maybe some requirement is missing. This might be solved by running `xcode-select --install` on the command line.

    @TobiasMende This is fantastic, and almost exactly what I have been looking for. One thing that would make it absolutely perfect for me would be if there were an option to toggle among favorites with a single hotkey. For example: I most often want to just switch between just my headphones and display speakers, so I had set up (using a Keyboard Maestro macro) so that one button would switch just between those two: if I am currently set to headphones, it switches to the display speakers and vice versa.

     

    Do you think that is something you might be able to add?

    Thank you for this idea! I like the idea of being able to quickly toggle between two devices. 
    I will check your PR and get back on GitHub 🙂

  4. Hi folks, I have built another workflow using the Workflow Builder. This time it is a workflow that integrates Alfred with NotePlan using it's x-callback-url scheme.

     

    Overview

    This workflow can:

    1. Quickly add a note to an "Inbox".
    2. Quickly add a task to today's Calendar note.

     

    Disclaimer: I am in no way affiliated with the creators of NotePlan. I am just a (power-)user.

     

    Here is a sneak peek of the functionality:

    Of course, you can use Markdown:

    You can also use Hotkeys, Fallback Searches and Universal Actions. Here is an example of the Universal Action:

    Add a title and the note will land in your inbox:

    When you use the universal actions from browsers, the URL of the website is stored as context.

    The result in NotePlan looks like this:

    Configuration

    Of course, you can configure the workflow to suit your needs:

    Technical Requirements

    • None. Apart of having NotePlan installed, this workflow relies on osascript (Apple Script and JavaScript) that are available by default on Mac.

     

    Get the workflow

     

    I hope you enjoy it and find it useful. 😊 – I am looking forward to your thoughts and feedback. 🙏

     

    Merry Christmas, everyone! 🎄

  5. Hi folks, I built something today using Alfreds new Workflow Builder. Maybe you find it useful.

     

    Why this Workflow?

    I find myself frequently switching between audio output and input devices. Existing solutions either are slow, take to many interactions or need third-party tools.

    Therefore, this workflow offers a couple of features to make switching audio devices easier and faster.

     

    It also allows filtering out devices you do not want to see in the suggestions.

    In order to make it even faster, the workflow provides Hotkeys and Remote Triggers for up to three input and up to three output devices and comes with its own Remote page.

    The workflow is of course configurable. 😁

    Some technical goodies:

    This workflow does not need any third-party tools such as `SwitchAudioSource` or `jq`. It relies fully on Swift and ZSH, which should both be available in modern OS X Versions. Furthermore, as it does not contain binaries, code signing isn't an issue.

    I am looking forward for your thoughts and feedback! 🙏
