I want to deploy a war file, to my tomcat manage, and the path is quite long, so I want to enter the path, but whenever I go into open file, I can only select the files manually, by going through the folder. Is there a way to enter the file path, I have attached a picture to show the UI I get (BTW I'm using 16.04)

here is the picture

Ctrl + L in the open file dialog will allow you to edit the path.

I normally have a file browser in the destination folder. I use

Ctrl + L and Ctrl + C

to copy the path. Then, in the open file dialog,

Ctrl + L and Ctrl + V

to paste it. Finally

Enter

So the open file dialog goes to that folder.
