Re: How do I import the copied text transaction

I made a transaction on a watch only wallet on Android using electrum v4.4.5.0.

When I tried to export the transaction as a QR code I got the following message.


"Warning: Some data (prev txs / "full utxos") was left out of the QR code as it would not fit.  This might cause issues if signing offline.  As a workaround, try exporting the tx as file or text instead."

Now, there is no option on android electrictrum to save as a file.  I can copy the text and put it in a txt file but what should I name the extention and will it work if imported as a file.

This slows the process right down, so hopefully a fix on the scanner or at the very least an option to save the transaction file to be signed in file format so I can transport to the offline computer.  I have submitted a bug report on GitHub.
THERE IS NOT BUTTON ON THE APP TO RE UPLOAD THE TEXT FILE AFTER i HAVE SIGNED IT ON MY OFFLINE MACHINE. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW?
