type() is unable to type a path

Asked by Akos Kovacs

I need to type a Windows filepath to a field. I use type("C:\_private") in Ruby scripting. I get only character "C" in that field. I am unable to use right click after test is executed.

Why can't you use paste (eventually with additional encoding) as discussed in https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/677799

I assume that you use a keyboard different from US-standard layout, probably having the ":" key in a different location.

Yes, that is worked, I just reported that as a possible bug.
