I used the ppa installer, from the repository. And that is the version with the bug I think, because then I did use the appimage, and it worked perfectly the png export. But I prefer the ppa install, so if there is a bug it would be great to fix it
I have tried from the terminal, but the same thing happens, additionally indicating an error when trying to load the "canberra-gtk-module" module. Maybe that is the cause of the error
Last night I tried again with the terminal, everything worked normally, the file name form was also active, files could be exported normally without any error messages in the terminal.
This is probably to do with snap. Instead of installing Inkscape through snap, grab the AppImage from the Inkscape website. Worked for me.

Hello
I am running Inkscape 1.3.1 (Inkscape 1.3.1 d6bc339df9, 2023-11-14, custom) on ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
When I try to expot a PNG file the file name box is blocked and does not allow me to edit and name the file.
Does anyone have the same issue?
Please help!
Thanks!
Yes, it's happening to me as well.
Inkscape 1.3.1 (d6bc339df9, 2023-11-14, custom) on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS.
Which installer was used?
Thanks for your answers

Same here. Filename field is blank and greyed out.
Inkscape 1.3.1 (6036e22fae, 2023-11-19, custom)
Yes, unfortunately it won't let me name the file so I can't export it... - Inkscape 1.3.1 (6036e22fae, 2023-11-19, custom)
Yes! I have a same problem in Ubuntu 22.04.03 LTS too 😕
I have same problem.
But solved with open Inkscape from terminal... 🤩

@D_AL
I tried opening inkscape from the terminal but the filename field is still empty and greyed out.
For now my workaround is to use the Batch export tab. Not exactly the same as the Single file tab but better than nothing.
Last night I tried again with the terminal, everything worked normally, the file name form was also active, files could be exported normally without any error messages in the terminal.
No, unfortunately it does not work even if I start it from the terminal...
A new build is available to try: https://inkscape.org/release/inkscape-1.3/?latest=1
This happend to me as well, I want to put a name, but the fiel has grey out

I also had the same problem running Inkscape from Snap. Running AppImage helped.
Similarly, the snap caused images for me on ubuntu 23.10. A post over here led me in the right direction.
Summary below: (this will remove the snap from your system, and install the stable version from the inkscape repository)
sudo snap remove inkscape
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:inkscape.dev/stable
sudo apt update
sudo apt install inkscape
