Maybe I wasn't specific enough and - that is the main reason - I put that
under the wrong Chapter. Indeed, In Chapter 1 there is:

"The dialog that opens when using the *Save As* command depends on the
options that have been set in LibreOffice. See “Choosing Open and Save As
dialogs” on page 21 for more information."
And further on page 21 there is:
"Choosing Open and Save As dialogs

You can choose whether to use the LibreOffice Open and Save As dialogs or
the ones provided by your operating system. This book uses the LibreOffice
dialogs in illustrations.

If you use your computer system’s dialogs, you can move files only to and
from mounted file systems on the local computer. To provide additional
opportunities such as working with cloud or remote servers, and searching
by versions, switch to using LibreOffice dialogs. Go to *Tools > Options >
LibreOffice > General* and select or deselect the option *Use LibreOffice
dialogs*."

This feature was removed from the Settings dialog in LibreOffice 6.0 and
can only be set via expert configuration. So these parts of Chapter 1 will
have to be rewritten (and probably partly omitted, as they are too "expert"
for a novice user).

Thanks again,
m.
