Bug - Export - File Name Truncates with "." in the file sequence name.

I think I brought this up in the now locked export rant thread, but forgot about it and now working with a company that uses "." in their output names extensively again so I ran into it again today. 

 

Steps:

 

1. Name sequence something like " 1.5 - Intro to Basket Weaving" 

2. File - > Export

3. Click on file destination to set folder

4. File name is truncated to "1.mp4"

5. Have to manually cancel and try again. 

 

Workaround: Copy file name into clipboard before selecting folder, paste into name slot after selecting folder. 

 

Seems like it would be a farily easy bug to fix but has been happening to me all year. 

 

Specs:

 

Windows 11 

Premiere Pro 24.1

I had emailed an @Udo Pawlik about it earilier this year and his description of the bug like this: 

 

It appears the file name gets truncated at the last period (.) in a sequence name.

 

If you have a sequence and place a period anywhere
‘PlaceAPeriodAnywhere.InTheSequenceName’ truncates to ‘PlaceAPeriodAnywhere.mp4’
‘Place.APeriodAnywhereIn.TheSequenceName’ truncates to ‘Place.APeriodAnywhereIn.mp4’
