Will never happen, sorry

Try this:

XY_Send curpath to Windows dialog_v2018-02-08.zip

Extract it, put it in a non-UAC protected path, start it. When a "Save as" window is open
and in the foreground, press F2. It should fill the address bar with the current path of
the frontmost XY instance. Should work out of the box for english / german systems.

If you need it for a different language, take a look at the .ini file:

Code: Select all

FindInControl=Address|Adresse

Add the name in your language to the |-separated list (you need a window spy utility that shows the control
name to get the necessary language specific item...)

Is it written in AHK? Nope, switched my primary language to PureBasic, so it's written in it...

i wonder what is it shoud be in .ini file for
"Address|Adresse"

Maybe you should have posted which tool you are using...

What you need is the text in the upper control. E.g. I'm displaying a Save as... dialog here.
"Bibliotheken - Dokumente" is the current path

The tool that shows the details is the spy utility from an AutoHotkey installation. As you
can see in the red surrounded part it displays:
Text: Adresse: Bibliotheken\Dokumente
while hovering over the upper control in the Save as... dialog.

That's where the "Adresse" in the .ini file comes from.

In your screenshot I can't see: RAMDISK anywhere in your "window controls displaying utility"
so I don't know how the Chinese? translated part looks like (and if it is even on the left / right side)...
