sending strokes to Open/Save dialogs

Can StrokeIt send strokes to Open/Save dialog boxes?

Apparantly, the strokes are sent to the parent application - which does not serve the purpose.

Hmm, yes, this is also one item in my wish list.

Try activating the window the caption of the open / save dialog.

Nothing works on the Open/Save dialog, Scott.

The "Finder Tool" only detects the parent application.

If I try to configure "Application Identifier" by using "Window Title" as "Open" for the Open dialog, even then it does not work. When I perform the gestures over the Open/Save dialog, the result of the gestures can be seen only in the parent application and not on the dialog.

only a quick idea ....

you could do that in combination with powerpro
[url=http://www.windowspowerpro.com]http://www.windowspowerpro.com[/url]

the idea is to call a script witch triggers the related action on a window (class or exe).

in powerpro you can set up a commandlist which is starting on filedialogs,
the commandlist could set a global variable

in strokeit -> run powerpro.exe .strokeit_proxy("up")

the ppro script name -> strokeit_proxy.powerpro
gesture = arg(1)
if (actwin == "filedialog") do
if(gesture == "up" ) do
win.debug("i gonna perform something for up now")
elseif (gesture == "down")
win.debug("i gonna perform something for up now")
endif
endif

i will publish an article about strokeit and powerpro on my site (soon)

I grant that PowerPro can do lots of things but do I have a more resource-friendly option - something that takes up lesser memory and processor power?

Interesting Arvind. I'll see if I can't figure something out.
