file name returned by QFileDialog::getSaveFileName()

[mcosta]

QFileDialog::getSaveFileName() doesn't add extension to fileName this because you can select a "multiple extension filter".
For example

fileName = QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(this, tr("Open File"), "", tr("Image Files (*.png *.bmp *.jpg)"));

fileName = QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(this, tr("Open File"), "", tr("Image Files (*.png *.bmp *.jpg)"));

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Then you ave to specify the extension

Makes sense. Thanks.
