Subject: [gentoo-user] [OT}: Can I tweak gnumeric save-as-image defaults?

1 I post a few graphs as PNG images daily on a COVID megathread, using
2 gnumeric. There are a couple of annoying defaults, which I sometimes
3 miss and have to re-do....
4
5 1) I need the "Save as image" export dpi setting at 96 dpi. Gnumeric
6 defaults to 150 dpi on the first image save. I have to manually set
7 it to 96 dpi. Gnumeric remembers 96 for subsequent saves in that same
8 gnumeric session.
9
10 2) I save in PNG format. *FOR THE FIRST SAVE IN A SESSION*, gnumeric
11 defaults to "Auto by extension". Since I'm saving over the same file
12 names every day, that works fine... for the first save. On subsequent
13 saves in the same session, gnumeric wants to save the image as
14 "SVG (Vector graphics)", regardless of extension. I have to over-ride
15 manually.
16
17 Is there any way to set 96 dpi and "Auto by extension" as permanent
18 save-as-image defaults?
