I can try to fix it. It does happen to me as well.

1. I think it is Ok to use getExistingDirectory for the feature to save all figures to disk. Since we are saving multiple figures, I don’t see how the “getSaveFileName” would work… The idea is to select a directory where all figures are saved in batch in that directory. The names of the figures are determined programattically.

2. Thank you very much for finding this nasty bug! In Windows everything is working fine though.
