Hi Guiseppe,
I am using the native dialog. I've tested again after setting
QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog and this does not appear to have the
problem.
Thanks,
Dan.

Hi,
I'm currently working on a save dialog for my application (currently
testing in Ubuntu). The dialog is in accept mode
QFileDialog::AcceptSave and a default suffix of "txt" is set.
I've noticed something that appears to be strange when the file provided
exists as follows (assuming a file "text.txt" exists for the following):
1. If I select the existing file "text.txt" and click save, I am
presented with the overwrite question dialog.
2. If I type "text.txt" as the file name and click save, I am presented
with the overwrite question dialog.
3. If I type "text" as the file name (without the suffix), I am not
presented with the overwrite question dialog and the dialog returns the
filename "text.txt" where the default suffix has been added.
Number (3) above is concerning. If the dialog returns a filename, I
would assume the user has accepted overwriting it, but this doesn't
appear to be the case. I assume this isn't intentional and is probably
a bug?
Likely, but it requires some investigation on where the bug actually
lies.
First and foremost, are you using the native (GTK?) file dialog or the
Qt one? You can try setting QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog and see
if it makes a difference.
There are pretty much these cases:
A) Native, returning "text.txt" to Qt without showing the overwrite
confirmation dialog. A minimal check is in order within Qt to verify
that it's opening the native file dialog correctly (with/without any
option that would cause such behaviour). This should result in either
a bug report against Qt, or a bug report against GTK.
B) Native, returning "text" to Qt which then appends the file
extension. Qt bug.
C) Non-native. Qt bug.
So, if it is a Qt bug, please report it on the bugtracker. This is
obviously a P0, silent data loss.
Cheers,
