[Feature Request] "Opening actions" on entries in the result list

Open taffit opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Hello,

and thank you for the wonderful, fast and useful ueli, first of all!

A feature that I think would be useful are additional actions on entries in the findings/result list. On KeyPirinha you select one item of the result list and, instead of pressing Enter you press Ctrl+Enter. Then the selected entry becomes the "headline" of the window and the possible actions replace the result list. E. g. for the result Everything.exe you can explore the folder, copy the path, run as administrator (which is already possible with ueli, using Shift+Enter, great!), etc. You then select the entry either by up/down +Enter or number shown beside the commands (see screenshot below).
For a bookmark you can open the URL, open in private mode or copy the URL to the clipboard.

The only similar feature request related, that I was able to find in the issues list here, was a similar function from Launchy. Although a little bit different, as it requires you to hit Tab, but goes in the same direction.

Screenshot from KeyPirinha, searching for everything and hitting Ctrl+Enter:

Thank you for ueli once more and regards
