I'd doubt any OS convention exists on adding two extensions to a file (which
isn't something a user would normally do), thus I don't think being lenient
about this would be unreasonable.

I suppose that we must try hard to follow OS/environment conventions as much as
we can. And unless we use our own file dialogs, the dialogs provided by shell
must behave just as in other applications (or rather as shell designers
intended them to behave). On Windows, that is according to how MS intends it;
KDE or Gnome have own vision... I suppose that any change in the behaviour of
such things to be custom to LO is bad.

I'd say this is more of a convenience feature than being "smart enough." You're
entering a file name already, and you could just type a few more characters
instead of opening the dropdown, finding the entry you're looking for and
clicking on it.

Then again, surely there'd be things to keep in mind, like prominently
notifying the user in what format the file is actually saved in.

--- Comment #9 from QA Administrators  ---
Dear Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired),

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today,
LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed
bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this
bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the
details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in
getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information
from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to
RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help
- About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular
meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a
REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your
bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from
http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat:
https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team

Sorry, this was a mistake as Jay's report is against Windows.

Guess it is.

Doesnt mean that we cant fix this issue specifically to Windows for the save
dialog, as we have users who are using LO cross-platform and falling over this
issue.

On Windows, i can change the filetype of the open dialog to only show .docx
files, but if i type the name of a .odt file in the filename field, it will
pick it, though it still tries to load it as a .docx file. ;D

Hiding of file extensions isnt relevant, as you can easily enable the showing
of file extensions.

It's how the platforms work, inconsistently. Windows hides the file extension
and you see foo.doc while the actual extension is .odt. On the other hand, in
case of raster graphics no one cares if a bmp file is called png because the
application detects the format not trusting on the filename. And LibreOffice is
capable of that too.

I've seen this inconsistency in the past...
on Linux the export change to .odt if I change the name. However, on Windows,
the output name will be foo.odt.xxx.

That's how Linux works. You can label a file foo.doc.odt and the user is
supposed to be smart enough to work without automatic adjustments. WF in my
opinion.
