My main browser is Google Chrome Canary. I'd love to see support for this as well.

Better late than never :)

@lorin, If you're still interested in this, you can help me test a version of the plugin which support Canary. Download the zip file here: http://cl.ly/3f043W1Q1f0X, extract it and open the extracted GoogleChrome.qsplugin.

Catalog stuff seems to be working great - thanks a bunch!

Current Web Page proxy doesn't seem to be picking up the active Canary window's web URL. Instead it still seems to use the last Chrome window's.

And I'm wondering, for catalog entries is there anyway to have a "Open URL With Source Browser" action that uses the browser the URL came from (and then falls back to the default browser)? Just an idea...

ndreas commented 11 years ago

Make sure you're using Current Web Page (Chrome Canary), and that it's active in the catalog. It works for me, so it might be that you're using the Chrome version. A good indicator is that all the stuff that has to do with the Canary actions, except for bookmark folders and bookmarks, should have the Canary icon.

Open URL with Source Browser is a great idea, I'll take a look at it.

The Open URL with Source Browser has its own issue now: #17

studgeek commented 11 years ago

Yes, using Current Web Page (Chrome Canary) works. Cool! I guess you don't have an easy way to see what the top application is and use that? Would like to get this down to a trigger somehow.

Actually I am seeing some weirdness with it today. Give the Canary URL https://developers.google.com/events/io/sessions its giving me http://www.google.com/search?q=*** site:developers.google.com.

lorin commented 11 years ago

To be honest, i switched from Canary to regular Google Chrome several months back.

ndreas commented 11 years ago

@lorin No worries.

@studgeek Can you give me steps for reproducing the weirdness. I tried using the URL in all the different ways it can come from Canary, but I see nothing strange.

Also, creating something common for Chrome and Canary which operates on whichever is the topmost application goes against the isolation between the two apps. Should the situation occur that Canary deviates too much from Chrome so I have to split them into two plugins, any interface in QS that depends on both applications would be much harder to maintain. What are you trying to achieve? Maybe you can do something on your own with AppleScript or using the comma trick in QS?

I'm using this, love it. Canary is my browser of choice and this plugin helps. Thanks Andreas!
