Google-chrome – How to get ftp:// links in Chrome (Mac) to open the connection in Transmit

No, even though you are making "applications shortcut" it is still using Chrome browser. Thus any link open in the "application shortcut" will be open by the corresponding application. Unless there is an extension, which I checked. You can drag the link to firefox and that should open it too.

Good Luck.

This is a Duct Tape way of doing it. It isn't fancy or automated in the sense of how I understand you want to do it, however in the interim before someone gives you an actual answer, you can do this:

1. Click and Drag the Link to the Dock

2. Drop the Link onto the Chrome Icon

3. URL opens in Chrome.

If you were to click it instead, it would open in default browser.

That being said, there must be a way, as when you think about it, clicking a link in Chrome or Firefox opens that link in Chrome or Firefox, not Safari.

Some of the answers out there talked about 3rd party apps that can capture the HTTP or HTTPS of the click, but it wasn't definitive from the comments if they actually worked.
