Description Karl Ove Hufthammer 2020-05-23 10:11:14 UTC 
SUMMARY
When one changes the default file format, it’s not remembered.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open ‘Settings → Save’.
2. Change the default file format for saving images to JPEG.
3. Edit the file name and press the ‘Apply’ or ‘OK’ button.
4. Quit Spectacle.
5. Launch Spectacle.
6. Go to ‘Settings → Save’.

OBSERVED RESULT
The default file format is still at the old value (BMP), not JPEG.

EXPECTED RESULT
The default file format should be kept across Spectacle sessions.

Cannot reproduce. This works fine for me when I follow those instructions.

I can still confirm this in the latest Git version of Spectacle (58e32d9c7ec8f7ed6a9bf8facd93854da70b5567). The default file format is stuck at BMP (!).

By ‘confirm’, I meant ‘reproduce’. The bug is still present.
