Creating a New File

Typing new file name

  • Create the file with the given parameters.
  • Hold to view the full path of the target folder.
  • Create the file with clipboard contents.
  • Create the file without clipboard contents.
  • Accept and expand the auto-suggested file extension.

In addition to all plain-text type files, the workflow can also quickly create docx, doc, odt, rtf, rtfd, and Xcode playground files.

Configure the Hotkey to initiate creating a new file or to create it immediately if the posthaste behaviour is enabled in the Workflow’s Configuration.
