Hi,
I want to search a text that I highlight in preview with google using the chrome browser. I learnt, that the function from the context menu 'search google for ...' can't be tricked into using another browser than safari. What I tried then is to set up a new service in automator that does just what I want. The problem however is that even the default method stub:
on run {input, parameters}
(* Your script goes here *)
return input
end run
results in two windows opening when done executed in preview:
The "test" service could not be used.
and:
There was a problem with the input to the Service.
I changed the input of the script from text, to formatted text to everything else under text but it still won't work in preview. If I choose text as input, it works in other applications, like chrome itself.
Really hope someone could help me with that.
