#1 PSPad's autonaming of new files doesn't work

Posted by: joemarfice | Date: 2015-12-10 18:25 | IP: IP Logged

New install on a new machine, and whereas before PSPad would nicely suggest a filename from the first text line on new files, now I just get "New1.txt". What checkbox/system integration trick am I missing?

Also, the Program Setting > Files and Dirs > "New Default: Text" / "Always use this type" checkbox has no apparent effect at all. That isn't a new problem for me; I get asked what filetype I want to create regardless of the settings on Ctrl+N/New Files.

I just tested it.
When you create new file, the file tab is names as new.txt. But when you put any text and save file, suggested file name is made from the first line.

Yes, you have correctly tested what is supposed to happen, which I described as the desired behavior.

That's not what happens on my installation, however.
