The only area I can see this might happen is if your History settings are set to create a new object (snapshot, etc.). In that case, on my copy PS will use the name "Open" , but not "untitled". I could not get it to change the file name in the way it does on your system. Sorry not to have been much help.

OK, did some screen shots: Here you can see the open file with the correct file name https://flic.kr/p/2mogiv2 And here, the drop down menu showing the Save As command that I am used to using https://flic.kr/p/2mokb6t And finally, what happens when I try to use the Save As command: https://flic.kr/p/2mooYZk Note, Photoshop has dropped the lettered prefix in favor of "untitled", and is using the numbered suffix. It's curious. As I mentioned, if I use the Export command, it works fine. thanks bill > > John in Brisbane > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Bill <[email protected]> > Sent: Friday, 10 September 2021 11:51 AM > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List <[email protected]> > Subject: Dumb Photoshop Question > > I've been using the subscription version of Photoshop for a short while, > and have run into a decidedly odd and irritating behaviour. > Photoshop insists on changing the filename to "untitled-xxx.xxx rather > than using the original filename. > The only explanation I've been able to find involves Apple changing > something in their operating system, but I'm not using an Apple machine. > Anyone know how to fix it? > > thanks > > bill > -- > %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List > To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. > -- > %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List > To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. > -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
