Description jean.marc.leger+kde 2024-02-05 10:45:33 UTC

SUMMARY
***
When using the save fame feature, a file dialog appears but does not hint that the saved file will be in XML format (you can only know about it after the fact). It would be nice if the dialog suggested a .xml extension, as well as being able to filter the files already in current folder displayed to .xml (as I frequently save a .txt file along the game with game comments/notes).
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run any game
2. Click the File / Save as... menu option
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
"Name" field is empty, "Filter" dropdown only offers the default all files pattern (*)

EXPECTED RESULT
"Name" could be initialized using some reasonable default pattern with xml extension, such as  Game_20240205_1139.ksudoku.xml
"Filter" dropdown should allow to restrict browsing to xml game files matching the file extension (filtering out anything else in current folder, e.g. .txt files), as is customary in most apps.
