Save .stl dialog has changed and no longer uses the component or body name as default name.

Ever since about last week when the new log in process was initiated in April the save mesh dialog no longer opens with a display of my file system files. It also does not use the name of the component or body but instead defaults to the name of the project. Here is a picture to show what is displayed. Before it use to open a different file save dialog and set the default .stl name to the name of the body or component being saved.

I have attached an image of what now displays.

Do I have a setup wrong? Is there a way to get a more detailed save showing my computers file directory like it use to do? Having to change the name of the save file from the project file is very annoying and error prone.

I tried to replicate your issue but I am not experiencing the same problem. The save dialog is defaulting to the body name for me. Is this a problem across the board or just with this file? Maybe look at your preferences? there might be a setting that needs to be changed?

I believe this issue was solved with the latest update. Check your Fusion 360 version and make sure it matches the one shown.
