agilek Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Hello, I have a question: is there a way how Alfred can hint me result when I enter more from the folder/file path than the name of the folder / file? For example I want to open folder "code" which is located in folder "programming". My idea is that I would type something like "programming/code" but Alfred offers me only Google & other searches for this. Is there any workaround for this? Thanks!
vitor Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 That’s exactly what Alfred does (documentation). Maybe you can record a video of what you’re doing, so your question is clearer.

I don't want to navigate through whole path (query start with "/") I want to open folder/file using some part of its path - mostly to skip hinting folders with the same name. Anytime as I type "/" in my querry, Alfred offers Search with Google, Amazon, Wikipedia...
vitor Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Start your query with a space (you’ll see a '). It’ll look in your system. Search for the name of the parent and it’ll allow to drill down the path in greater detail.

If you want to "jump" across multiple levels with a single query, the only (Alfred) option I know of is my Fuzzy Folders workflow.
