Hello. I'm trying to make a trigger that appends the current selection to a
file, which seems like it should be pretty easy.

Current Selection -> Append To... -> the\_file

Nothing appears in the file, though. It doesn't matter if I run it as a
trigger or form it directly in the interface.

I played with this and I think the problem is that the process of getting the Current Selection from most apps ends up stealing focus from the window. Depending on which application it is and the timing, the selection might be “nothing” by the time you actually try to send it somewhere.

In my case, a trigger for “Current Seleciton ⇥ Append To… ⇥ file.txt” was fine because everything happened so fast, but I was unable to do it manually in the main interface.

Anyway, I’ll look into it and see if there’s anything we can do. If you could, opening an issue will help us remember:
