many users are completely unaware of file extensions anyway.

Sorry for the late reply, was on holiday...
Sure I can correct the file extension, but I'd still love to have the nice looking "clean" solution with a working file type selector.

We'll see what the future brings.

P.S.: I did send in a report, so maybe there might be a fix in the future...

Thanks for those tips! I really appreciate this.

I see your point. Since there are pro and dumb users, the features I would love to include are:

• selecting your own name for the file
• selecting your wished folder to store into
• keep "uneducated" users from messing up the filetype
• keep a clean interface for ease of use and esthetic reasons

And somehow I'm also on the point that talig mentioned

...I find it puzzling that the list of file types exists but it's empty and can't be filled.

Mainly because I think this is just a basic functionality and I don't see the point in this option not being provided.

Thanks for the effort, guys.
Sadly this doesn't really help.

Seems to me as more inconvenient to have to move to the desired folder every time.

What bugs me the most is, that one can't click save and then immediately start typing the filename, in the way that the whole line (including ".xxx")is highlighted.

Since there might be some not really intelligent people handling this, I would love a way for them to immediately start typing, but still have the right extension visible as well.
Do I have to file a bug-report to get this in or is there nothing one can do to try and get functionality of the filetype selector!?

Just getting this thread out of retirement...

Is there any new solution to this?
I would love to see this one fixed. (Meaning a possible mask application or anything for the filetype selector in the savepanel.)
