Quick look in Alfred?

[doughpat]

So I am about 2 weeks in with Alfred and really enjoying getting to know it's capabilities.  One thing I really miss about spotlight was the ability to 'quick look' (I think of it as "preview" but I don't think thats the right term) within the spotlight results.  In other words, I could see what was in the file without actually launching the application to open it.

 

Is there a way to get Alfred to do this?

Press the Shift key to Quicklook items in Alfred's results

 

I would recommend browsing Alfred's preferences, as you can discover many of the keywords and hotkeys you can use in Alfred through the preferences.
