Overall, it's really fun working on something that I hope might be useful for others.Īdded screenshot (because I like pictures and words often fail me)Ĭlever! But yes, you should avoid filenames with non- ASCII characters¹. I still need to explore ImageMagick further, for stuff like generating an outline, and I think I'd like to provide the option to choose a background colour and then generate a filled squircle using this colour, along with a drop shadow. One could even assign a hotkey / temporary macro if they needed to make a bunch of these. Just select the symbol in the SF Symbols app, invoke Alfred's actions menu, and execute the workflow. It's actually super fast using Alfred's universal actions. So if anyone can help get around that hiccup, the overall workflow is coming together pretty nicely. Set the clipboard to (read (POSIX file output) as ) Set output to (system attribute 'output') It seems to fall over when transporting the variable out of Alfred and into AppleScript But it isn't playing nice with the AppleScript portion of the script, where the file is then copied to the clipboard. This works great for the first part of the workflow, where the file is generated and saved to disk. Now we need unique naming for the outputs, so let's use the symbol itself for the file name. I've set the default save location to /tmp/ and provided a new config field, where the user can choose their own location. For troubleshooting this issue, I have created a branch in GitHub (I think I'm starting to 'get it' with GitHub). I've ran into a little bit of trouble which I have outlined below.

I've been working on a nice little update for this workflow inspired by Vitor's ideas. ⁴ There are other more “proper” ways, but they add complexity. ³ ImageMagick, which you’re already using, should be able to do it.

¹ Perhaps as a modifier (⌘↩) or as a User Configuration Checkbox. If you do share it on GitHub, please do let us know. Naturally, all of this is optional, it’s your workflow. Though better to make it a more unique name, like /tmp/_ so it doesn’t conflict with other scripts.⁴ The way you’re referencing output.png means it’s using a path relative to your workflow directory and you’re not deleting the image, meaning the last icon will always end up there.In your workflow’s directory, you have extraneous images.Auto-generating all the icons and showing them in a Script Filter or prepopulating a List Filter so they can be searched from Alfred’s window.Generating icons with a coloured border, to make sure it will always be legible in light and dark themes.³.to the Desktop) because there are situations² where one does really need the icon as a file.

Feel free to ask if something is unclear. Ping Messina, because you mentioned something like this encourage you to share this on GitHub, so you can get contributions.

Nice! I know people who’ll be really happy to have this.
