Now that you mention it, I think the LaunchBar forums were made read-only a few months ago, so I guess you can't ask there… Sorry, @Ptujec! I suppose this currently is as good a place as any to ask.

But is there any chance someone could make an Aktion like that for LaunchBar. Pretty please. And please don't hate me for using LaunchBar. Hi, You don't need a workfow for such tasks in Launchbar. Launchbar has a pretty good system integration, so the only thing you need is a system service for text manipulation, as described here: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/LanguagesUtilities/Conceptual/MacAutomationScriptingGuide/ManipulateText.html Here is a bigger collection but you will also find other if you google. After you install such a service, you can call it directly from LB. Link to comment
bhanquier Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Hi, First thanks for the great workflow. I've noticed an anomaly in its behavior with Microsoft Office apps (in Excel in particular is a bummer as that's where it's most useful). It's adding a backlash before any parenthesis (at least that's the only one I've identified, it doesn't touch { nor [ ). I'm adding a screenshot of the text in Excel (blue background, ordinary spaces, no line returns), and of the resulting text in Case Converter. Any idea? Thanks a lot! Link to comment
dfay Posted February 8, 2020 Author Share Posted February 8, 2020 Hmm I'd never noticed that but there's an easy fix - go into each of the Run Script objects and the Script Filter and uncheck Escaping....Brackets. Link to comment
bhanquier Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Gained a perfectly working workflow in Office, and I finally understand what "Escaping" means in this case. Thanks a bunch! dfay 1 Link to comment
OAL Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 This doesn't work with other languages. With Russian, Turkish or Azerbaijan character (sets?) for example. Any ideas? Link to comment

I'd be interested in it. FWIW, I also cleaned up your workflow (download) a little bit to offer some synonyms (I would forget about the `cc` keyword) and also added notes to the scripts to make it easier to associate my preferred hotkeys: Link to comment

It does work with non-Latin characters from Alfred using 'cc' keyword. But for me, it doesn't work from text selection using hotkeys. How can I fix this? Thank you! Link to comment
dfay Posted May 31, 2021 Author Share Posted May 31, 2021 Have you set values for the hotkey triggers? Alfred clears them on import to avoid unintended conflicts. Link to comment

Yes, and it works fine for non-Latin characters. I've been using this workflow with keyboard shortcuts for about a year. But for non-Latin characters, this never worked for me. Link to comment
pojitonov Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I can confirm it is not working with Cyrillic using hotkeys. It would be nice to fix it. Link to comment
dfay Posted September 7, 2021 Author Share Posted September 7, 2021 I'm thinking converting to python 3 should fix it. Link to comment
dtoub Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Hi. As with all workflows using Python 2, CC is broken in the latest developer seed of Monterey. Any updates yet? Your workflow is indispensable and I'd love for it to work again on my system 😉 Link to comment
dtoub Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I reinstalled Python 2 (2.7.18) and unfortunately that did not fix the issue. Link to comment
vitor Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 For people already on the Monterey beta, if you’ve followed the knowledge base article to reinstall Python 2, this version should work. It modifies the Workflow just enough for it to work with the newly installed Python 2. @dfay may be interested in updating this for Python 3 or another language, so consider the above a stop gap if you’re in a hurry. If the Workflow has any kind of auto-update, the linked modified version will respect it. Link to comment
dfay Posted February 8, 2022 Author Share Posted February 8, 2022 So I've been playing around with the idea of writing v.3 entirely calling Shortcuts - i'd already built something largely equivalent for use on my iPad anyway. All the individual actions are working but they insert an additional blank line. The bigger problem is that Shortcuts Events isn't up to the task of running Shortcuts quickly enough to work in a script filter.... Link to comment
dfay Posted March 26, 2022 Author Share Posted March 26, 2022 This is now working in MacOS 12.3 with Python 3. Thanks to @giovanni for doing the hard work on CodeCase. I just used FileMerge to see what he did, and replicated it here. gandalfsaxe, cands, Chris Messina and 1 other 4 Link to comment

Chris Messina Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Also, FWIW, I moved some of the blocks around so they're easier to read. WDYT about using a similar layout (though I can see that now you funnel everything thru a single script, so the block notes aren't as useful)? Link to comment

Sure. I put it in a gist so you can view the changes easily. Mostly it involved breaking its dependence on @deanishe's Python workflow framework. https://gist.github.com/derickfay/4b46ebc69e4bd9d85817ffd6a6885dd6/revisions Chris Messina 1 Link to comment
matthewmcvickar Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Thank you so much for this update, @dfay, it’s something I use all day. @Chris Messina Re: labeling the hotkeys objects; you can right-click the hotkey object and select 'Edit Note' to add a label underneath the object, like in this screenshot: Link to comment
