Description

Your idea

In the Save/Save as/etc dialog window, make the entire half for each option (online or offline) clickable (see image below).

Problem to be solved

This makes it even easier to continue saving your project. I regularly click the image and then have to click again on the small button. It's a minor inconvenience, but still. 😄

Research direction

Start by locating the Save/Save as dialog and inspect how the online and offline option halves currently trigger their actions. Done means clicking anywhere within either half continues the corresponding save flow, rather than requiring the smaller button.
