Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
If you do not edit anything in the folder box, the first pull-down will not be
as described in the help.
If you select a file by mistake, the folder box is filled with the full path of
the file.
The filename portion must be removed for it to function properly.
I would like to propose to add a new function which is not described in the
help page, instead of eliminating this defect as a bug.
When you select a file name in the pull-down menu, only that folder name is
automatically entered.
Opening another file in the same folder as one of the recent file names, saving
it with a different name, or outputting the PDF is a possible operation, and I
think it would be useful to have that function.
