Correction:

    please ignore export comments.  I had finished with two files.  I
confused the one from which I carried out the exporting!

     Even when a LyX file has the correct number of dots and is saving
correctly, export to other output forms loses the part after the dot.

     This can easily lead to the disastrous overwriting of existing files.


Dear Frank,

I guess there are several places where we are not careful enough. Could 
you open a ticket that outlines the precise steps you use that lead to 
bad behavior?


Thanks,
JMarc

                      Saved file name is      file-2018.Jan.lyx

         If the full name complete with *.lyx is saved, it does so correctly.

Lyx 2.3.0rc2 -- Incorrect saving of file-name in Linux

2018-01-30 Thread F M Salter
Hi

       LyX saves new files with incorrect names when the specified name
contains dots as separators.

        Example:  Specified file name is  file-2018.Jan.30  expecting
.lyx to be added as is usual

                     Saved file name is      file-2018.Jan.lyx

        If the full name complete with *.lyx is saved, it does so correctly.
