Benben 1 Posted Wednesday at 01:35 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:35 PM I know you can use a keyword for showing snippets in the regular alfred serach and i know there is this seperate snippets search option. My question is is it possible to just show snippets with the regular results together in the search? Thanks, Ben Link to post
Benben 1 Posted Wednesday at 01:48 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 01:48 PM Btw - just to explain my goal: I code. I love using snippets. But i also love using advanced snippets (workflows). I want to be able to quickly search (not auto expand text) my snippets and my advanced snippets (workflows), in one place. For now, i can search snippets in one place and the advanced snippets (workflows) in another, and it's very inconvenient when you have a lot of snippets (and advanced snippets).

Andrew 797 Posted Thursday at 01:56 PM Share Posted Thursday at 01:56 PM @Benben Ah I misinterpreted what you meant by "quickly search (not auto expand text)" I actually have a ticket for adding the Workflow Snippet Trigger results to both the Snippet Viewer, and the snip keyword... which I believe would satisfy what you're looking for.

If that's the case, i guess this will solve my problem is it planned to be any time soon? Link to post
Andrew 797 Posted Thursday at 03:05 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:05 PM @Benben this is what I mean - It's currently ticketed, but not targeted for a specific release, so I can't give you a timescale... I do agree that this would be useful though. Alan He 1 Link to post
Benben 1 Posted Thursday at 04:06 PM Author Share Posted Thursday at 04:06 PM Ok, Thanks. it would be very useful for me for sure. for now it makes alfred not so useful as a "snippet manager". i guess i will use keymaestro for now. waiting for it to happen Link to post
