Those are some great tips! Also, thank you to the Raycast team. I've started using it since March this year, and it's now an integral part of my workflow. I can't imagine working without it. Thank you!

Google searching highlighted text is incredibly powerful! Thank you for mentioning the "Pass the selected text as argument" option.

I CAN PASS THE SELECTED TEXT AS AN ARGUMENT TO QUICKLINK!!! Great! Thank you, it helped me a lot. Now, I can totally replace Selection Search extension with Raycast.

Hello, very good application, you could implement real icons when you create Quicklinks from the finder folders so it would be more beautiful or put icons to taste. It's a suggestion, sorry my English is because I'm Spanish.

@raycastapp 8 ай бұрын

We’ll take your suggestion into account. Your English is perfectly fine, by the way! We are a team of mostly non-native English speakers, and there are some hispanoablantes among us as well 😊

I like using them with url schemas so I can pop open Raycast and write something and it will add it as a note to bear or obsidian. things like that. so useful for quickly adding things. so many things you can do with them.

@raycastapp I can't find the option to activate "the selected text as argument". Is this an exclusive feature for pro users?

@raycastapp 6 ай бұрын

This is available for all users! It should be under the "Quicklinks" group in Raycast settings. You can press ⌘F to search for a group or command in the list.

Hi, is there a way how to configure raycast so that when i highlight text lets say in my email, i press designated hotkey combination that it will run specific action in ai, more specific correct grammar? I am pro user and this would be huge for me.

@raycastapp 4 ай бұрын

Yes! You can search for the Fix Spelling and Grammar AI Command (or any of them, for that matter) and assign a hotkey to it by going to the Configure Command page (Command + Shift + ,)

Hello and thanks you for this Tips :) I would really like to be able to open a URL in private browsing in Arc with quicklinks. Can you help me please?

@BrunoReisVideo 8 ай бұрын

hmmm, I don’t think that would be possible through Raycast, but have you tried Air Traffic Control in Arc? there might be a way to set it up so that a specific link always opens in a private window. this way, you can create the quicklinks in Raycast, tell it to open in Arc; and then in Arc settings you tell it to open in a private window. does that make sense? 😅

@BrunoReisVideo 8 ай бұрын

just checked and I don't think there's a way to do this in Air Traffic Control, sadly 🛫
