Hello, the Electrum documentation doesn't exactly correlate with the Electrum 4.5.5 wallet.
I researched Electrum support on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/Electrum/comments/mg6qfj/watch_only_wallet_how_to_send_funds/ and the Electrum documentation on sending https://electrum.readthedocs.io/en/latest/coldstorage.html

Specifically, "Create an unsigned transaction" and "Get your transaction signed".
When I save the unsigned transaction, I receive a file named Watch only deterministic wallet-e6765ab4.psbt however the guides indicate no transaction ID should be populated until the offline wallet has signed the transaction.
Also, the file format should be .txn, e.g. unsignedTransacton.txn.

Will I lose the funds or does the Electrum documentation need updating?
