Hide Alfred Utility

This utility object gives you more control when preventing Alfred from hiding in a connection.


Using the Hide Alfred Utility

By default, Alfred will hide his window when you've actioned the result (e.g. pressed ↩ to perform the action you needed).

However, in some occasions, you may look for a different behaviour. For example, when chaining input objects, you may set the window behaviour to "Don't close" in the Alternative Actions configuration for a connection.

You may then manually need to tell Alfred to hide when relevant; This is where this handy little utility comes in.

The utility can also be configured to unstack a view that was configured to stack (such as a Text View or Image View), thus taking you to the previous active Alfred window.
