This should work for you, for now.

Spotlight Search Prompt Resources.pkg.zip (501.9 KB)

Unzip this file. Once you do, you'll have a new Resources package file. Remember, DO NOT DOUBLE-CLICK the .pkg file. :slight_smile:

Move or rename your existing resources package file, and put this new one where your old one was. Let me know if you have questions about this.

For these changes, the Macros themselves haven't changed.

##Changes:

  • Fixed issue that caused an error message under Yosemite, on some systems.

  • Redesigned the Help HTML file, because there were issues displaying it on some systems.

  • Added the ability to specify a keyboard shortcut for Custom Buttons. This works similar to the standard Keyboard Maestro "Prompt for User Input" action:

  • Specify the custom button text like this:

"customButtonText: Edit/E"

  • In this example, the keyboard shortcut for the "Edit" button will be Control+Option+E.

  • If you hover the mouse cursor over the custom button, a tooltip will show you the keyboard shortcut.

  • When the OK or Custom Button are clicked, whatever the user had currently typed in the Filter box will be returned in the variable "sspResultFilterText".
