gCode save dialogue: highlight filename not file.extension

gCode save dialogue: highlight filename not file.extension

In CAM after postprocessing a file we are presented with a Save dialogue of the form

 

filename.nc

filename.cnc

 

(extension depending upon post processor).

 

Today the whole text string is highlighted which means that, if you start typing in order to name the file you're going to have to retype the file extension.

 

Alternatively you could look for the mouse and select just the filename (that's what I do).

 

Both are slow.

 

Suggestion: when the file save dialogue comes up, highlight only "filename" and not "filename.cnc".

Is this for Mac or PC?

 

Also, the program name can be set in the CAM post process dialog before it reaches the save dialog.
