Description Antti Savolainen 2021-10-28 01:03:29 UTC

SUMMARY
Demonstrative video: https://youtu.be/kvAM-iy67QY
It would be a nice usability fix if the focus would go on the recommended filename when the user refuses to overwrite the file. This would allow the user to immediately start typing the new desired filename without fumbling for the mouse.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enter the file save dialog
2. Have the file be something that is already in the folder
3. Try to save the file
4. In the "Overwrite file?" dialog click cancel

OBSERVED RESULT
The focus is still on the save button

EXPECTED RESULT
The filepicker should move focus on the filename and highligh it.
