Automator services - Not available in right click services list



Dear All,

I have a service that needs the url I have selected in a safari webpage.

I want that when I click on a link in Safari, the link should get loaded and the textual result opened in another app.
In this sample case a text editor.

When I create a service and choose "Service receive selected URL's from any appplication" it doesn't show up in the services menu. When I choose  "Service receive selected text from any application" it does.

Whats happening here?

Any thoughts, samples or pointers?


Also sometimes there are services only available when using the 'app menu>services' from the menu bar, but not when right click in the app itself, why and how can I change that? If I need no input I still want to see it in the contextual menu.

Thank you very much. _______________________________________________
