Bug Description

I often use the "Save a copy..." function, but even during the same session, I always have to select the correct file type of the copy. I mean: I use "Save a copy..." to get a PostScript version of the file while keeping the SVG as the main file being edited. It would be nice if Inkscape could automatically remember the last file type I used to create the copy.

I agree, remembering the last file type for save-a-copy would be very good.
My use case is, that I make pictures to be used in a pdflatex document.
This way I always need ".svg" to save my file and a ".pdf" export for latex.

Hi, going through issues as part of migration to GitLab.

Closing as Fix Released. Maybe there's a bug here with native save dialog on Windows not remembering (configure it in Preferences > Interface > Windows > Desktop Integration), but otherwise it works in 0.92.5 and 1.0.

I've opened an issue for the native save dialog on Windows here btw: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/issues/3358
