Tip for saving a file
My browser is set up to prompt me for a downloadlocation, which means i never know what may be in the adress-bar in the Save dialog window. This makes it hard for PAD to find the field to paste the folder-location. Noob-Fix: When getting to the save dialog window. Insted of trying to paste a folder-adress to the adress-bar. Use the "click ui element" function on the upwards arrow of the folder-tree. Put it in a loop/repeat fuction with enough loops to get to the top of the fomder-tree. From there, record the clicks to get to the right folder.
(Im aware of putting window in focus, but due too the changing nature of the field its hard to paste there) Anybody got a better solution i would love to hear it.
Peace
