Hi people
Just installed 2.10. Seems nice. Just tried exporting a pic as .jpg and .png. I noticed that there were no options to choose the file type. However simply changing the file extention in the 'Name' seems to have achieved this. Is this the new standard?
Many thanks.

A deliberate change by the developers.

From the 'News' https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/blob...6/NEWS#L11

- Merge the file view filter and file format lists in GimpFileDialog.
The presence of 2 lists was very confusing.

I have used Gimp for many years, always just added the extension (if required) when exporting and Gimp brings up the correct dialogue.
