P: File name and extension highlight when saving on macOS 10.15 Catalina

@clif_CROP Go to Help > System Info...

Are you running Photoshop 22.5.0? This should work correctly in Save for Web or Save As or Save a Copy in version 22.5 where the extension is highlighted and you change the name to not have an extension, it will have the correct extension appended when you save.

While some of the saving issues that sprung up with Catalina have been fixed, this one still has not. I've noticed that a few other Adobe apps have adopted the highlighting of the name and extension but in all my testing, if you leave type your new file name, the file type selected in the dropdown will be automatically added if you remove it in the text field while renaming and that is just peachy and works fine. What doesnt' work fine is that in Photoshop still, when doing "Save for Web" the file extension will not be added and as far as I can tell this is the only Adobe instance where that is the case. And of course, saving for web WILL need an extension to make the file worth a darn. Appreciate that some other fixes have been addressed and hopefully this one can get crossed off soon as well. 

Please fix this issue asap

I called Adobe support about this a year ago and was told they were aware of the issue and it would be resolved in a future update... which wasn't entirely a lie for those that still use MacOS Catalina or previous.

The frustration for me is that after updating to 22.3.1, I worked for 4 hours yesterday without encountering this issue, came here to post my success and went back to work only to encounter the issue every. single. time.

Is this abuse?

Darn, I was so happy to see your post. I tried it too but didn't see a difference. Thanks for updating your post.

I wish there were a way to speak with Photoshop directly. This has been a costly slowdown in the workflow. For those of us to do this for a living, meaning a lot of keyboard and mouse time, more clicks mean more physical toll on the hands, wrist, elbow, etc. 

I can't believe that the Photoshop team don't see this... Unbelievable...

This issue is FINALLY resolved for me with Photoshop 22.3.1 running on Big Sur 11.2.3. Adobe's ambivalence lasted a year and a half, so I'll spare them my "thanks" and continue riding them for the dozen other issues that remain.

Spoke too soon. 

22.3.1 today and this problem is still here. Please solve

I am so annoyed at my self that I updated to Big Sur and thus PS 22.3, my workflow is extremely slow now, as well as Photoshop is extremely slow at anything you ask it to do in regards to saving files, the dialog box openings are literally 2 seconds after the command, this is madness, this is Sparta.

Sorry, but despite some reports here, PS 22.3.0 still has the entire file name and suffix highlighted in Save For Web. This is not fixed. Plus I'm having more hanging issues with this version.
