Make the Class Save dialog more like Save As...

Status: New

I would like the worfkflow to save a new class/library/project to be more like Save As... when creating a copy.  Mainly I would like the option to either use 'Current folder' which puts the class/library in the current directory, or the option I would almost always use, Save which creates a new folder with the class name and puts the class inside.

Interesting note about the name hiding.  I've seen that in some save or saveas dialogs recently.  I think it may even be a bug, possibly connected to win7.  When I get a chance, I'll investigate it some more and create a thread in the regular LabVIEW forum

It is often worse, much worse.  I think it shows a fixed width of text, basically the amount shown.  Had the name been any longer, all of those characters would have been off to the left.

I came across an example of the hidden filename problem and started a message thread here.
