thebitguru Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 (edited) I accidentally hit Alt+Up Arrow while on a search result and noticed that the icon was pinned to the top of the alfred window. I looked around to see if what that was for, but couldn't find anything (probably not looking for the right thing). What does Alt+Up Arrow do? Here is a screenshot showing this.

homever Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 On my mac, "Option+Up" does the same. It probably offers you a shortcut to frequently used apps. With option pressed, left click on the pinned apps can remove them from the search box. Link to comment
thebitguru Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 You are right, it's Alt/Option+Up and not Command+Up as I had in my original post. I have edited my original post with the correct combination. I was thinking the same thing, i.e. shortcuts, but it's not easy to remove a shortcut out of order. It always removes the last one in the list, which wouldn't be the expected behavior for a shortcuts-type of functionality so I am guessing that it maybe something else. Link to comment
RodgerWW Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 That is Alfred's file buffer. Check out Alfred's Preferences / Features / File Search / Buffer to enable or disable it. Also to see what the ⌥+arrow keys actually DO. Link to comment

It is indeed the File Buffer (which is very handy for processing multiple files at once). You can see what hotkeys are used here: http://support.alfredapp.com/features:file-search#file-buffer Link to comment
