Hi all,

This is a limitation of macOS now: file choosers simply do not have a title
bar anymore.

I added a Troubleshooting entry about it:
    https://imagej.net/MacOS#No_title_bar_in_file_chooser_dialogs

As a workaround, you can check "Use JFileChooser to open/save" in the Edit
 ▶ Options  ▶ Input/Output... dialog.

Regards,
Curtis
