[image name] field does not work in "Also export as PNG" Action

[Ultroman]

What went wrong?
When adding an "Also export as PNG" Action, and selecting Perform export: "As a single image", and writing "[image name] -1080x1080", it just exports to a file named " -1080x1080.png"

What should be the expected behavior?
It should export to a file named "[image name] -1080x1080.png"

If you can, specify the steps to reproduce the problem.
Add an "Also export as PNG" Action
Select Perform export: "As a single image"
Write "[image name] -1080x1080"
Click "Close"
Click "Run"

Hi, thanks for the report. I can reproduce this and I'll try to fix it before the next release.

I forgot to ask - which menu are you using? I could reproduce this behavior for Batch Convert, Export Images and Edit and Save Images. Export Layers and Edit Layers seem to work fine with [image name].

In case of Batch Convert and the others, [image name] takes the name of the currently processed image. However, since we are exporting to a single image, there is no way to determine which of the input image names to use in place of [image name] (we end up obtaining an empty string as the single image to be created has no filename yet). You can use [output folder] to use the name of the parent folder instead, or some fixed name.
