nikivi Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Here are my parameters: I actually left them as default and they work well for me. Only thing I did change was lower key repeat to be really low: Link to comment
JimmyTheSaint Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Thanks, but K-E doesn't have that Parameters page. I only know of those two timing parameters that I have to edit directly in karabiner.json. Link to comment
nikivi Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I wrote an article on how I use Karabiner together with newly made DSL to make these awesome mappings to both Alfred and Keyboard Maestro. Link to comment

Hi @Vero - Does this still work in Alfred 4 & Mojave? If I've enabled Compatibility Mode for Focusing in Alfred's Appearance options, and I run the script below - while Alfred's search or file action window is open - shouldn't "Alfred" or "Alfred 4" show up as the frontmost app (i.e., as frontAppName in script below)? Or does the Focusing option control something else? Thanks for your help! tell application "System Events" set frontApp to first application process whose frontmost is true set frontAppName to name of frontApp end tell Edited January 10, 2020 by Jasondm007 Link to comment
Andrew Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 @Jasondm007 I'm not sure you'll ever see Alfred as a frontmost app, as he is configured as an LSUIElement. That focus mode changes Alfred's underlying window style mask, making the window non-activating. You can see the effect of this option as soon as you change the option without even closing Alfred Preferences, or the Appearance > Options sheet. Show and hide Alfred, and when in Standard Mode, showing Alfred doesn't make Alfred Preferences lose focus. Switch to compatibility, and showing Alfred makes the Alfred Preferences window lose focus (fade out). Cheers, Andrew Jasondm007 1 Link to comment
Jasondm007 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 @Andrew Many thanks for the clarification! This all makes perfect sense - even to a scripting neophyte, like myself! If Alfred can't take focus as a frontmost app, is there a different way to check (via AppleScript) whether his window is open? Thanks again for all of your help! Link to comment
