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

Hello. After last updates (Osx Catalina and CC 2020), when the save window appear, the focus, highlite, is on all the file name and extension instead only the filename. I suspect the issue is related to Catalina, but I ask if anyone has noticed the same thing. My working speed is affected and I would like to know if anyone has a solution to ensure that only the file name is highlighted (in save and export).
Thank you
Michele

Just want to add one more very annoyed voice here. I never had this problem until I installed Photoshop 2021. I know it's not a Catalina problem because I'm not running Catalina. I stayed with Mojave so I could keep supporting customers who use InDesign CS6. It's also ridiculous to say it's a Mac issue when literally every other image editing application for the Mac does not have this problem. GIMP, Affinity, etc are all somehow smart enough to not highlight the file extension. But the 800lb gorilla of Photoshop can't, for over a year! Pathetic.

This is not a problem with Catalina. I am still running Mojave and have seen the problem only since I upgraded to Photoshop 2021.

This was first reported in November of 2019. Here we are nearly a year later, and still no progress? This is a HUGE inconvenience and time waster. Get with the program, Adobe!

Okay, so tons of us are having the same problem and we're all super-annoyed by the time it's costing us. Seems like it should be an easy fix, Adobe!

Photoshop 2021 (v22.0) is out... this issue STILL NOT FIXED!!!

Anyone out there using the beta of MacOS 11 Big Sur that can weigh in on whether or not this has been addressed on the OS side of things? Clearly Adobe gives zero f*cks.

...or you can use Photoshop 2020 on Mojave, and it's not an issue.

 

But don't you DARE try to use the latest Adobe Software you're paying for (hear that Adobe?) with the latest Mac operating system! 

 

we. are. perpetual beta testers.

Use Photoshop 2019 on Catalina and it is not an issue. Adobe says their next update to 2020 will include a fix but we all know how much they lie.
