I checked: - opening Inkscape, either do noting and Save as..., or draw a garbage and Save, will save for me with name "desen" (which probably on an English system is "drawing") and the type drop list default to svg - opening an existing file, Save as... keeps the original name and the type drop list defaults to svg - exporting the same defaults to \documents_path\name.png > Also files that have different extensions aren't > visible in the view, so you always have to start typing in the > filename when you open the export dialog for the first time for a new > document as you can't click on the svg file and just change the > extension. This is true, the export as bitmap dialog needs some improvement. > These bugs didn't exist when Inkscape used the GTK+ file dialog, and > have existed since migrating to the native dialog several years ago. > My point is that the way Inkscape uses the Windows native file dialog > should not be used as any kind of direction, guide or proof of concept > for what could or should be done with GIMP. Maybe it should not follow exactly, but as direction *this* is the right direction, of course, excluding the limitations. One thing that I am thinking at is that – for a proper native file dialog – an xcf thumbnail view must be first implemented at OS level (Explorer), not just part of the dialog itself (but I am not sure here). Anyway, I hope that one day the native GIMP file dialog will be solved somehow. Today I miss the ability to open a file on network, or I was not able to find how.
