Hey Rjay,
Been using it since it debuted long ago. We find it very useful and time saving.
Yes.
It's scriptable too in case you didn't know. Since upgrading to Yosemite a couple of months ago though, if I’m running an AppleScript that puts up a choose folder dialog, Default Folder X doesn’t work in those dialogs. It worked fine with the same scripts prior to Yosemite.
Running from where?
It works when run from Script Debugger or the Script Editor.
I just tested running choose folder from FastScripts and got the bare dialog.
Okay, this works when run from either FastScripts or Keyboard Maestro:
-------------------------------------------------- tell application (path to frontmost application as text) set myFolder to choose folder display dialog myFolder as text end tell --------------------------------------------------
I had to do this to get it to work with an applet:
-------------------------------------------------- set currentApp to path to frontmost application as text
tell application "System Events" activate set myFolder to choose folder display dialog myFolder as text end tell
tell application currentApp to activate --------------------------------------------------
I suggest you report this to Jon Gotow. If there's anything to be done under-the-hood he's the one to ask.
-- Best Regards, Chris
