Allow to duplicate or copy/paste items in List Filter

[jjaybe]

When the different options of a List Filter are quite similar, the fastest way to add a new option would be to duplicate an existing one and then modify the duplicated item.

 

Right now, however, there seems to be no way to either duplicate or copy/paste a selected option of the List Filter and one has to manually click on the '+' Button with the mouse.

Thus, my request is to make the creation of List Filters more keyboard friendly.

 

Cheers!

@jjaybe You can create a CSV file outside of Alfred, which will give you free reign to copy and paste as much as you need, and edit the list as a whole with title, subtitle and arg. 

 

For example:

A bunch of grapes,grape,code123

A bowl of bananas,banana,code432

A bushel of apples,apple,code043

 

Once you're happy, drag your CSV into the List Filter box and you'll see it auto-populate

 

Let me know how you get on!

 

Cheers,
Vero

Oh, that is awesome, I had no idea that this existed!

Have not tried it yet, but sounds like an incredible timesaver. If that behaviour is not yet documented anywhere, I think it is definitely worth adding to the documentation.

 

Thank you so much!

See the bottom of the list, where you add more:

Oh, my bad 🙈 Thanks, @vitor!

Must be frustrating at times for you developers when the users do not even read the text that is right next to the action itself 🫣
