Here's a version modified to look a bit more… rounded
To use, replace this subroutine with the one from the original macro
Rounded Prompt With List (HTML).kmmacros (51.2 KB)
I love it! 
(The macro link is broken though.)
Thanks! It's less broken now I hope

How about a bit of Alfredesque transparency and blur?

How can I set the 'prompt with list' to display the contents of a folder?
I have 100 text files in a folder (actually between 2 folders unfortunately - but I can move them to 1 if needed) - and I would like to trigger the prompt with list to display all of the individual files and once I select one in the list it will open that file.
Possible?
Cheers
Hello Troy
If you’re asking for Neil’s Macro in the OP it should be relatively easy to do even opening multiple ones at once because of this feature set:
For the other Macros in this thread I don’t know if or if not …
Hope this helps.

Here's how I'd do that:
Choose Folder.kmmacros (38 KB)
I'm using the Alfred-esque version of the PWL subroutine here (thanks @olifrost!), so ensure you select whichever one you're using:
thanx man, enter the whole path? I've entered the following to no avail.
I'm sure I'm missing something.
/Users/mda_server_01/Muffetta Dropbox/Muffetta Enterprises/Troy/Texts/Share Builder/
or only the parent? I don't think so?
/Share Builder
Yes, the whole path. And make sure the subroutine has been selected.
I seem to remember servers can be problematic. Test it on a folder on your desktop. If that works (but not with the folder on the server), that's the issue and I'm not sure of a workaround.
I tried a desktop folder to no avail.
FYI, the cpu is not a server as such, it's only named that way.
It is my local CPU, nothing remote.
Can you post a screenshot of the macro as you have it now?
It all looks correct, assuming the folder path has been added correctly. Did you type it or copy/paste?
The only other things I can think of are:
- the macro (and/or its group) is currently disabled
- the files aren't directly within the parent folder and are in subfolders
When you say it's not working, does anything happen at all?
Can you try this for me? It should present the files as a list. If it doesn't then we know the problem is further up the chain.
Choose Folder (TEST).kmmacros (39 KB)
Does the prompt appear? If not, I have no idea why.
With the 'test' macro you provided:
sorry, - yes, the display text in a window works and displays the list of files in a window.
When I disable that block to display the text in a window and cancel, and let the macro continue to the next action which is the sub routine, it does nothing. no error, no anything.
The 'alfred' sub-routine is enabled and the group that contains that action is enabled.
ADDED:
It's getting to the sub-routine, I added a simple display text at the top of the sub-routine and it gets to that. But nothing happens after that.
Sorry, I'm stumped. 
Have you got whatever the subroutine is thats's referenced by the "Execute Dismissal Submacro" action in the "PWL - Alfred Styling (HTML)" macro? For me that's "None" because I haven't started at the beginning of the thread and downloaded all the relevant bits.
(For whatever reason, for me the error isn't throwing a notification -- but if I turn off "Failure Aborts Macro" the error is ignored and I get the expected prompt.)
