Save Image to Disk

FYI

I have the the image elements hidden

this.radImageEditor1.ImageEditorElement.CommandsElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Hidden;
                this.radImageEditor1.ImageEditorElement.ZoomElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Hidden;
                this.radImageEditor1.ImageEditorElement.CommandsElementWidth = 0;

Hello, Claude,    

We already have a known issue regarding the performance of the file dialogs that the Telerik UI for WinForms suite offers. You can track its progress, subscribe for status changes and add your comments on the following link - https://feedback.telerik.com/winforms/1463626-radopenfolderdialog-so-slow-its-unusable

The following KB article demonstrates several tips and tricks how the performance can be improved: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/knowledge-base/improve-filedialogs-performance

As to the SaveImage method in combination with a RadSaveFileDialog, it seems to stores the image as expected to the local file system. The attached gif file illustrates the behavior on my end. Am I missing something? 

radImageEditor1.SaveImageAs();

or

        private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string saveFName = "";
            MyRadSaveFileDialog radSaveFileDialog1 = new MyRadSaveFileDialog();
            radSaveFileDialog1.FileName = saveFName;
            radSaveFileDialog1.Filter = "JPG | *.jpg";
            if (radSaveFileDialog1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
            {
                saveFName = radSaveFileDialog1.FileName + ".jpg"; 
                radImageEditor1.SaveImage(saveFName);
            }
        }

        public class MyRadSaveFileDialog : RadSaveFileDialog
        {
            protected override FileDialogFormBase CreateFileDialogForm()
            {
                return new MyRadSaveFileDialogForm();
            }
        }

        public class MyRadSaveFileDialogForm : RadSaveFileDialogForm
        {
            protected override DialogResult ShowDialogCore(IWin32Window owner = null,
                bool addWatcher = true)
            {
                addWatcher = false;
                return base.ShowDialogCore(owner, addWatcher);
            }
        }

Could you please give us more details about the problems you are experiencing with the image saving? Could you please specify the exact steps how to reproduce the problem? Once we replicate the issue locally, we would be able to investigate the precise case and provide further assistance.

I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
