dont tell me FileDialog strikes again ! :) 
i became almost tired of that class last few days. but maybe its something
else, because filename correctly appears in the inset drawing. only the graphics
properties window somehow didnt get it.

this must be optional of course. it happens to me often i simply want to print
few pictures together and then just throw out the file... because of all the
namings i rather use ooffice to do it. with the possibility automated filenaming
or even enbundling everything in one trash_backup file i can avoid the ooffice
beast...
