Is there any way to use [xpath] string with app.window.window ?

[Heidernlee]

It's very easier to get [xpath] string by using [WinAppDriver UIRecorder] than spy++ or other Tools ,
So I decided to [Run Apps]=>[get xpath string using UIRecorder]=>[write auto-run script using pywinauto]
but app.by_xpath() is not released yet, am I right ?

So is there any way to use [xpath] string now? like:
xpath string : "//Window[@name='DF']/MenuBar[@name='Application'][@AutomationId='MenuBar']/MenuItem[@name='Option']"
pywinauto :
app.window(name='DF').child_window(name='Application').child_window(name='Option') ?

Duplicate of #896. It's planned for next year. Also we don't plan to integrate with Microsoft's UI Recorder. We're planning to implement our own recorder (prototype is here: #701).

Thanks for your response. UIRecorder is a good tool for recording XPath of Elements,
but it cannot record Window-Handlers while Hide+Show Windows.
Hope you guys could do it better. Thanks.
