Tip: Refresh New Menu Items if they Are Not Appearing

If you are not seeing actions in the snapshot that you are expecting to see, open "Configure Settings" and toggle the checkbox for that particular action.

It'll appear in your menu from there on out; you've forced the settings file to refresh!

Want to log a history of your locations?

It's REALLY easy with shell scripts!

Copy this shell script into Text Editor:

#!/bin/bash

echo $(date) $(defaults read com.andrewjfreyer.AirportLocation CurrentLocation) >> LocationLog.txt

Save it as "LogLocations.sh"

Then, add a Shell Script to a Snapshot.

sh /Path/to/LogLocations.sh

Then you will have your locations logged, with a timestamp!

Tip: Set a "General" or "Default" location

If you name a location "Default" or "General" or something non-descript like that, you can add numerous different places, and then when you're at those places, just select the group settings that you want to apply at the time.

For instance, instead of setting "Meeting Room 1" and "Meeting Room 2"; name both of the locations "Meeting Room" and then select the group each time you're in the meeting based on what the text of the meeting is! (e.g. "Products", "Customer Data" etc.)
