nartxela Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 (edited) Under Advanced Preferences, I've set the following: ctrl + ↵ = Search with default web search alt + ↵ = Search with Finder cmd + ↵ = Reveal in Finder Everything works fine, except: alt + ↵ = Search with Finder. After pressing return, nothing happens. If you can figure out what's going on, please let me know. Edited September 16, 2022 by nartxela Link to comment
nartxela Posted September 17, 2022 Author Share Posted September 17, 2022 I set both action modifiers (control and command) to Search with Finder. Then set alt/option to anything but Search with Finder. ctrl + ↵ = Search with Finder alt + ↵ = Search with default web search cmd + ↵ = Search with Finder Both control and command execute their actions, except alt/option. I haven't figured out why. Link to comment
vitor Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Weird. Looks like something is interfering with your ⌥. In which context are you trying it? A workflow (which?), regular file search, something else? To find hotkeys in use by Workflows, go to Alfred Preferences → Workflows and click the (…) at the top (to the right of the Filter bar) followed by Show Hotkeys. For keyboard shortcut conflicts caused by other apps, ShortcutDetective (scroll down until you see the detective badge) may be of help. Link to comment
nartxela Posted September 22, 2022 Author Share Posted September 22, 2022 The following worked for me. My advanced settings were set to: Alfred Preferences > Advanced > Force Keyboard > Blank (by default) I changed it from Blank to U.S. The action modifier alt + ↵ now functions as it should. In the past, I left it blank by default. I've been using it for regular file searches. Thanks for the advices you gave me. Link to comment
