           Summary: Slideshow screensaver truncates file names at the
                    first period, instead of at the last one
           Product: kscreensaver
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: screensavers
        AssignedTo: kscreensaver-bugs-null@kde.org
        ReportedBy: mmtsales@gmail.com


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.4) 
OS:                Linux

When configured to show the file names, slideshow screensaver tries to hide the
extension of the file name when displaying it. However, it does this truncating
the file name at the first period from left to right. This causes file names
which have periods in them to be truncated in the wrong place.
Slideshow screensaver should truncate the file name at the last period in it,
not the first one.
I have thousands of pictures named like this: 
"yyyy.mm.dd - Name_of_the_picture.jpg"
When displaying these pictures names, slideshow screensaver shows only "yyyy".


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. name a picture using the following pattern: "yyyy.mm.dd -
Name_of_the_picture.jpg"
2. put this picture alone in a directory
3. configure slideshow screensaver to show pictures in the above mentioned
directory and turn on the "Show names" option
4. activate the screensaver

Actual Results:  
The picture is displayed with the following name: yyyy


Expected Results:  
The picture should be displayed with the following name: yyyy.mm.dd -
Name_of_the_picture
