Details

    • macOS
    • fd817c28a (dev), b814f73fb (6.7), cab9a6166 (6.6), d651cdb98 (dev), 5dabb905e (6.7), e47a811dc (tqtc/lts-6.5), 7a2aff560 (tqtc/lts-6.2)

    Description

      Code

      #include <QApplication>
      #include <QFileDialog>
      #include <QDebug>
      
      int main(int argc, char *argv[])
      {
          QApplication app(argc, argv);
          qDebug() << QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(nullptr, "Caption", "MyFile", "Archive (*.tar.gz)");
      }
      

       

      Expected results (Windows/Linux)

      • The default filename in the dialog is "MyFile.tar.gz"
      • If you manually change the filename in the dialog to "abc", the debug output shows "abc.tar.gz"

      Actual results (macOS)

      • The default filename in the dialog is "MyFile.gz"
      • If you manually change the filename in the dialog to "abc", the debug output shows "abc.gz"

       

      Original Report

      Using QFileDialog::getSaveFileName() with a file filter of:

      "All NASA/FUN3D files (*.b8.ugrid *.mapbc);;NASA/FUN3D b8.ugrid files (*.b8.ugrid);;NASA/FUN3D mapbc files (*.mapbc);;All files (*)"

      If the user enters just a basename (no extension) in the dialog box, QFileDialog::getSaveFileName() returns basename.ugrid instead of the expected basename.b8.ugrid (the first filter's extension). The .b8 is getting culled by the dialog.

      Linux and winOS both return basename.b8.ugrid as expected.
