F+C Posted November 4, 2020 Posted November 4, 2020 It's super weird and it's always behind the toolbar. Just let it float on top of the window and be repositionable like a normal app save window? Thanks Quote

Fixx Posted November 4, 2020 Posted November 4, 2020 In OSX document bar pinned save dialog has been the norm for ages. Adobe apps though have free floating save dialogs. I too would prefer free floating save dialogs, sometimes you want to check file contents before typing the file name, like. And Affinity software really have he weird habit of keeping bars and panels on the top of everything, even save dialogs, which is clearly not normal. Quote

And yet, for me on macOS 10.14, Affinity Publisher and Designer (I didn't test Photo) use a moveable floating window for the save and save as functions. So I am curious where this is happening. Perhaps F+C is referring to the export screen, which is anchored such that it drops down just below the contextual toolbar. Quote

I have also Mojave and save and save as dialogs are anchored to document bar. Quote

That gave me the idea that maybe it is different in separated mode. Indeed, for me, it is anchored when in separated mode, but floating window when not in separated mode or when in full screen. I usually use fullscreen, occasionally non-full screen, and never separated mode except for the brief tests such as this one. Fixx 1 Quote
Fixx Posted November 9, 2020 Posted November 9, 2020 Right. I usually use separated mode (though it has its problems). Quote
