Works for me (macOS 12 MBA Intel). Please provide more information or a screenshot of the issue.

When the dialog pops up to save, nothing happens when you press save. So I am unable to save a project or render anything out because I cannot specify a path.

I am using this pre-release version cause I am unable to open the app without it crashing immediately

[rodlie]

Looks good to me.

/Users/Sam/Desktop/ is a folder, add a file name.

[chemicalsam]

When I add a file name and press save, nothing happens The save button does not do anything.

[rodlie]

So /Users/Sam/Desktop/whatever.ntp does not work?

[chemicalsam]

Nope, the save button does not seem to work. I am unable to save anything or render anything. And I cannot use the stable release because of the crashing bug.

You didn't add the filename to the Filter: input? (I need to ask because several users have used the filter input to add the filename).

If nothing happens it's probably a permission issue. macOS should popup a permission dialog when a new app tries to access various folders in the home folder.

[chemicalsam]

I am not sure whats going on here, everything is set right. The button just does not work.

[rodlie]

This is because you have the filename in the filter. The input above is for the complete filename (with path).
