"Show Alfred" passthru?


Recommended Posts

I have my Alfred Hotkey bound to Ctrl-Space.  Every rare, rare once in awhile, I need to type Ctrl-Space in tmux within iTerm.  Is there any way I can get Alfred to pass through its hotkey? Without that, I have to quit Alfred briefly or change its Hotkey.  While it's not a horrible solution, it feels a little kludgy ;).

 

Any help that can be provided would be appreciated!

 

Thanks!

That's a tough one! At first I would recommend using AppleScript to simulate keystrokes, but this won't help anything at all. As far as I know, Alfred will always capture his assigned hotkey (just like anything else with a global hotkey ;) )

 

My only recommendation is that you give Alfred another hotkey; sorry :(

Yeah.  What I've been doing is temporarily closing Alfred, entering the needed Ctrl-Space, and restarting Alfred.

 

Was hoping there was some magic to get Alfred to just send its hotkey, much like tmux and 'screen' can.  Feature request, maybe?
