Subject22 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) It's always seemed weird to me that Alfred displays usage stats in the way he does. Given that it's a discrete data set wouldn't a histogram make more sense? Edited April 10, 2013 by Subject22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built in stuff like opening the clipboard and activating workflows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subject22 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 Huh? But Alfred does that already. Unless I've misunderstood you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subject22 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) I believe that comes under "General". You could easily check it. Open Alfred Preferences, check your total number of uses, quit Alfred Preferences, use a workflow, check your total number of uses again.

Well, it seems like when i activate a workflow the usage & average use per day stays the same, I don't think Alfred 2 tracks it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subject22 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 I just tested it on my machine and it definitely does. Are you 100% sure the total isn't changing? Alfred Preferences only updates the usage total when it starts up, and it seems to sometimes take Alfred a second to update the counter (i.e.: if you call a workflow and immediately open Alfred Preferences it may not show a change).

Yeah, man it updates with everything else. You sure your using just keywords? With hotkeys it updates. Maybe i'm doing something wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subject22 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Yep. It works with both for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ddyracer Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) Yep. It works with both for me. i must be doing it wrong, then. Edit: it seems to work with some workflows that open safari, or app. if i just use a WF with just the results it stays the same.
