When Exporting As the name is resetting under General Setting tab

I seem to recall the name remaining if I made an edit and re-exported the texture. That was a nice feature. Did someone request it turned off? Is there an option to turn it on to recall the file name you are re-exporting?

Hi,
The asset name is the one we take by default for the general settings.
Is it the case for you? 
To rename the asset on the project panel you just have to click right and select "rename". 

Thank you!

Ah. That is dissapointing.

 

I have 1000+ textures I'm going through and no reason to save each of the Sampler files (it would just take up space as I'll never use it again)

-thanks

Yes. I guess I'm miss remmebering but I do recall the names not changing if the same file was loaded and it was different than the material name.

If the Sampler team is open to suggestions how about an option to use the files name as the material name. I made a brief mockup.
