RandmTask Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Hopefully a simple question. I want to open a group of files all at once into an app. What I have tried previously just passes the files one by one and opens several instances of the app. I am trying to use Alfred to pass the selected Finder items to an app called 'Tag Editor.app'. Then I can tag all the files in the same window TIA for any assistance! Workflow Link to comment
vitor Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 You get better help when you’re more detailed. Tag Editor is a pretty generic name so we don’t know which app you’re talking about. When talking about something external, please link to it. Your code won’t work as is because you’re missing a space between open and -a. More importantly, it’s up to the app to decide what to do when being told to open multiple files; maybe you can set a preference in the app, otherwise you’ll have to ask the developers. Also, when all you want is open -a, you can use the Open File Action instead. Link to comment
RandmTask Posted November 14, 2022 Author Share Posted November 14, 2022 Thanks Vitor. Changing from open-a to open -a fixed it and the files open in Tag Editor together as a group. Unfortunately. the Open File Action opened the files separately. FYI the Tag Editor app is https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tag-editor/id886882234?mt=12 Thanks again. Link to comment
