x17 export picture

[Frenchy1]

previous to x17 export picture used to save into my downloads with an automatic name i.e untitled 123 (if i didn't name it) then the next auto name would be untitled 124. 

 

x17 now forces a new name to save too every time or it overwrites the old name. can this be changed to auto create like x16?

I am also stumped by this new behavior. I am used to each camera having their own save name & find that sometimes I forget to check the save file path. It is ridiculous that camera 2 will overwrite the image from camera 1. Maybe there is a setting, but I have not found it. This can be quite frustrating the first time you export a second image. Obviously after the mistake then I am reminded to rename each view I am exporting. But it just does not make sense to me why this would be a preferred method of file saving.

Just checking to see if anyone has found a fix for this.  It's annoying to have to name a pic everytime you save/export

This is very frustrating as was fine before when chief auto updated the name to the file when saving

did you call support?

The answer is that Chief changed it.  Yelling on the forum probably won't do much good. You should call tech support and complain to them if you want anything changed.  Rumor has it that X18 beta is going to be coming up soon so my guess is that they won't change this in X17 but maybe you can get them to fix it in X18 .
