Saving

[aatwo]

When you go to save an image that contains layers (and hence is default to save as a pdn file) and in the text box you write something like "image.png" (i.e manually typing out the file extension you want) it kind of messes up the file.

Right. That's because it's saving it as a PDN, even though the file extension you typed was .png. I don't have enough control over that dialog to make it, well ... smarter.

Does it mess the file up if you type the correct file name?

Like save as pdn, name file.pdn? I do that all the time to see the diffrence, because i keep some pdn files...

The file isn't messed up. It's just saved in a different format. Rename the .png to .pdn and it'll be fine (or substitute the appropriate file extensions).

If the file type dropdown says "PDN" and you type in a name like "blah.png", then it will save a PDN-format image into a file named "blah.png". If you type "blah" then it will append ".pdn" and save a PDN-format image into a file named "blah.pdn".

There are some obvious ways to fix the problem of typing "blah.png" when "PDN" is selected in the dropdown, but we just don't have enough control over the standard Windows-supplied common file operation dialog.
