The program substitutes the JPG extension to save IFF/TBI, but the program is limited to these extensions to open these formats.

i can reproduce

to reproduce
1. open A.png
filename shows A.png - OK
2. press Ctrl+Shift+S and select "IIF - Explore (TDI);&;Maya)" type
filename will change to A.jpg

expected behaviour
filename to change to A.iif


ps. also there is typo in the format name in "Save as" dialog (it's correct in "Open" dialog though):
  • IIF - Explore (TDI);&;Maya)
    IIF - Explore (TDI) & Maya (*.iff;*.tdi)
  • WBMP - Wireless Bitmap (level;0))
    WBMP - Wireless Bitmap (level 0) (*.wbmp;*.wbm;*.wap)

Don't forget the WBMP extension with a similar problem.
