File creator no longer remembers the previous file extension

⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️

• This is a bug. Not a question or feature request.
• The topic is not already reported at Issues. (I've searched it).
• Markor is up to date. See Releases for the latest version. Updates are available from F-Droid and GitHub.
• The bug is still present in the latest development version (git master). (Please download and try the test version of Markor, named Marder. Don't worry; Markor and Marder appear as completely separate applications. You can install both side-by-side, and Markor settings are not touched. In case the issue is resolved there, you don't need to create a bug report. The change will be part of the next Markor update.)

Description

It was not explicitly stated, but the file creator used to remember the previous file extension (version 2.12.0).
It was useful for creating multiple files of type other than in the type dropdown.
I think the feature should be brought back or maybe even a "Previous" type option could be added.

Steps to reproduce

1. Tap the "+" button
2. Create a file "aaa" with an ".html" extension
3. Tap the "+" button again
4. The ".html" extension is replaced with the one in the type dropdown

What is the desired behavior here?

What is the desired behavior here?

In 2.12.0 if one created a file aaa.html and attempted to create another, the name field was empty and the extension remained ".html". That should be the correct behavior. In the next versions, to create multiple .html files for example, one needs to write the name AND replace the extension .md with .html on every file creation (if the type option is set to "Markdown").

the name field was empty and the extension remained ".html". That should be the correct behavior.

@harshad1 I have realized I didn't quite respond to your question before. This is the edit.

[harshad1]

Ok. Seems reasonable. I'll add that functionality back
