GUI file manager enhancements

[xuv]

Little things and ideas that could make the overall GUI experience with files a little better:

• If the application could remember the location (folder) where the last file was opened from. So when the user tries to open a new file, the file manager shows the last folder that the user was in. Usually, we all keep our drawing in the same folder, if not in the Wacom receiver itself.
• Same for saving files. If the gui could remember where it saved last.
• Since it can save in multiple formats, for now, we just have to add the right extension to the file, which is great. But some (new) users will want to choose the format from a drop down menu with all the possibilities (svg, pdf, json,… (others?) )

This is, of course, just suggestions. The program is working great and I have no idea how much work this all requires. I write it down here just to keep track of ideas.

Thanks for the ideas. That's what keeps making this software better, so keep them coming.

I have already looked at a list of file extensions, but couldn't find any canned solutions. I'll have another look and otherwise implement our own file dialog.

EDIT: I figured out the file extensions. I also have an idea for remembering the last location.

The file extension feature works great. Thank you.

The GUI now remembers the last used location.

This is great! Thx for that.
