Better search when opening file

Better search when opening file

When opening a file from the Revit program, it'd be great if you could copy the file destination from windows explorer and paste it into the open file dialogue, rather than click through 100 folders again to get to it.

 

(yes, I know you can open the file straight from windows explorer, but then you don't get the option to 'detach from central file')

The title should be something like "paste full path into Open dialog" instead of "Better search when opening file". I've wanted this several times.

You can already do this.  I do it all the time.  Paste the path into the File name edit box and press Enter on the keyboard.
