 |
|
Hello everyone,
I'm wondering if you can start the file and directory browsing dialogs "pre navigated" to a given directory. And i don't mean the root-dir parameter, because it just cuts of the tree at this point and you can navigate to a higher level anymore (only tried that with the folder dialog yet).
thank you |

| FileSelectFile seems to let me navigate higher but I see what you mean about FileSelectFolder. |

I think there's a way. If so, it will definitely be added soon.
Thanks. |

No, Thank you!
That would be definately great, because navigating through the same folders over and over again isn't that fun. But don't put it too high on your priority list  |

Here's a link to the popular Favorite Folders script, if you didn't already know about it.
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1427
It has been continually improved from the original version in the Script Showcase. According to the description in the Showcase:
| Quote: | | Upon selecting a favorite, the script will instantly switch to that folder within the active window. The following window types are supported: 1) Standard file-open or file-save dialogs; 2) Explorer windows; 3) Console (command prompt) windows. |
Perhaps what you're looking for is supported by the Favorite Folders script, and if not, i'm sure it could be modified for that.
The new feature you suggested would be great to have

BrowseCallbackProc Function
When you receive the BFFM_INITIALIZED message via the callback, you need to send the BFFM_SETSELECTION message and pass the folder path to initially select.
HTH,

This feature has finally been added in v1.0.36.03 (it's been requested several times).
To make simple use of it, precede the root folder name with an asterisk. For details, see the StartingFolder parameter at FileSelectFolder. |
