[ADDED] Name of .factory file in title bar

After saving a setup as a .factory file the name of the saved file should be visible somewhere on the screen- like in the title bar. As it is, it's too easy not to remember which file was originally loaded and hit ctrl-s, only to overwrite the wrong file.

Also, when using ctrl-s, there should be some visual indication that something has happened. Best would be to combine it with text in the title that would read something like "foo.factory- unsaved" beforehand, and have that change to "foo.factory- saved" afterwards, until the user makes any sort of change, at which point it reads "foo.factory- unsaved" again.

+1.

I noticed that the current factory file isn't displayed, good to see I'm not the only person using Simplify3D :mrgreen:

Re: Feature Request: Name of .factory file in title bar

I think there are a lot of people using S3D, but for some reason this forum isn't very active. Might be another reason for the devs to have more presence here. Honestly the support for pure S3D questions on the Makergear group is much better than here.

But S3D is very responsive to emails through their support link. So if there's something that really isn't working for you in the software, you might go that route for now. Hopefully this forum will get better over time.

Yes I'd like to know which factory file is currently open or has been loaded whichever the case may be. As mentioned it is too easy to over write something accidentally when you are aren't aware.
