Would be great if Faskeys could do this:

When I open a open/save-file dialogue lets say in Word and start at the same time the Fastkeys start menu with my favorite folders - I could click to a folder and - whooom! - the open-save-dialogue jumps to this folder ...

You can simulate the keystrokes - learn about this technique in our instruction video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZeh52QL9UM

This presses Alt+F to open the File menu, A for Save As, B to open the Browse dialog and then pastes the folder path. Tested in Word 2013.

Code: Select all

!f{200}a{200}b{300}D:\Temp\MyNewFile
You may need to adjust the pauses. You can also use a Selection Form macro for a path selection.

Code: Select all

!f{200}a{200}b{300}%SELECT_Path%
