I'm not sure if this is possible in a Java application, both rather than having a blank Save As: field, when File>Save As... is selected, it would be so useful to have the Save As: field auto-filled with the name of the current file.
Admittedly, this may only be standard behaviour for Apple/macOS applications - I'm not sure (that is to say, I can't remember) how Windows or Linux handles this.
The reasoning is that imagine you are working on a file called MyProject_v.1.0.4.5, and you want to save a new version of the. layout called MyProject_v.1.0.4.6 (i.e. change the minor version number). Currently, you have to either:
type out the whole filename with the new version number (prone to making a mistake), or;
Expand the save dialog or the Name column, then search for the current file (again prone to errors, if similar version numbers or file names are present), click on it, to transfer the current name to the Save As: text field, and then manually edit it.
After a while, of saving multiple copies, having to do one of the above steps becomes a little tiresome. It is much quicker if the Save As: field is auto-filled in (with the current filename) and you just have to change the minor version number.
