Start Gedit (or Firefox, etc.). 2. File-->Print... 3. Select "Print to File" under the Printers column. 4. "Save in folder" drop-down --> "Other..." 5. Type "TEST" in the Location. 6. Click "Open" or press Enter. 7. BUG: A folder called "TEST" is created and the folder choosing dialog is closed, with "TEST" selected. gnome-utils (?): 1. Start Take Screenshot (Apps-->Accessories-->Take Screenshot) 2. Continue at #4, above. Since my intention is something like a "save as" operation, and the dialog looks like a save-as dialog, I often type the filename that I want to use, and press enter. But then a directory is created with the filename that I want to use. Very annoying because now I have to find that directory and delete it. To fix this, I have a couple of ideas/suggestions: * Utilize a dedicated directory chooser dialog (is there one for Gnome, as in MS Windows?), or * When a filename is entered in this "other" chooser, the filename in the original dialog (e.g. print-to-file, or Screenshot save preview) should be set to it, and the "save in folder" should also be adjusted to the folder that was open in the dialog. * Fixing the current chooser dialog so it only creates folders when "Create Folder" button is pressed, or * Separate the location+filename selection such as the "Save As..." dialog to a separate stage in the print-to-file process, or * Adjust the print-to-file dialog in some way I don't know yet.
