@gtdwannabe I’m not an Alfred user, but I just adapted Shawn Blanc’s OopsieFocus script to instead activate OF’s Quick Open panel if the app is closed.
You can set a global shortcut with Fastscripts per my post above, but the key difference between OopsieFocus and this script is that you do not want to make the script’s shortcut the same as OF’s Quick Open shortcut because of a conflict: system-wide, the CMD-O shortcut opens a file in its native app.
Therefore, either use the default shortcut when OF is open, and another one for this script; or, edit the script to remove the check on whether OF is running, and just force Quick Open with a new shortcut.
-- This script allows the opening of OmniFocus and a Quick Open panel using the Quick Open keyboard shortcut in OF in the event OF is not open.
-- If OF is open, nothing happens.
-- Launch using a launcher app with a global keyboard shortcut.
-- This is based on the OopsieFocus script written by Shawn Blanc
on appIsRunning(Omnifocus)
tell application "System Events"
return (count of (application processes whose name is Omnifocus)) is not 0
end tell
end appIsRunning
if appIsRunning("OmniFocus") then
null
else
tell application "System Events"
activate application "OmniFocus"
tell process "OmniFocus"
click menu item "Quick Open…" of menu "File" of menu bar item "File" of menu bar 1
set value of text field 1 of front window to ""
end tell
end tell
tell application "OmniFocus" to activate the default document
end if
