When you look at the title of the file you can see it in an input box yet you cannot input any new keys, there is even a cursor there which indicates to be that if I press a key on my keyboard it should react in the same way a "word" program would.
Hi Jacky, Thanks for filing the issue. Indeed the appearance of box with the name is confusing. (I look on Ubuntu) It should be more greyisch. To indicate that one can copy the file name from there. Changing of course must be done in the file save(as) dialog. > new
one for ux!
No need to add this to UX Advise IMHO. The bug is obvious and its UX resolution should be too: that field’s background should appear disabled (i.e., grayed out) as it cannot be modified. Maybe Caolán can lend a hand here too ;) (sorry for abusing!)
Yup, a minor quirk of the UI--would be good to correct, no UX issue here. But in fixing we should try to retain ability to copy the file name from the Open/Save dialogs--LibreOffice's when active as well as OS when used. @Jacky Mary -- when filing, please research the component to use for an issue. BASIC is the programming language/interface used within LibreOffice. While valid, this is pretty clearly a UI issue.
