E.g. "filename.png" 2 - Access the Export command. The default filename shown is "filename.png" (e.g. whatever the source filename was). 3 - Access the Save As command. The default filename shown here is "filename.xcf". 4 - Save the image as an XCF but with a different filename, e.g. "filename.different.xcf" . 5 - Access the Export command again. The default filename is now "filename.different.png", not "filename.png".
