SaveItemDialog does not warn about existing items

Question

Despite having set OverwritePrompt=true, the SaveItemDialog does not warn if I select an existing featureclass. I'm sure I'm overlooking something silly.

var saveDialog = new SaveItemDialog()
{
    Title = "Save as",
    Filter = ItemFilters.GeodatabaseItems_All,
    OverwritePrompt = true,
    BrowseFilter = new BrowseProjectFilter(ItemFilters.FeatureClasses_All)
};

ArcGIS Pro is 3.5

That's possible, but it would at least be counter intuitive. I mean, why would it not warn about existing items of other types?

If it really only works for files, I think it would better if the documentation explicitly mentioned that it doesn't work for other types.

Hello @BerendVeldkamp , the Help page for OverwritePrompt describes a File rather than a Feature Class. Does that explain why it is not working for you ?

"sets if a prompt will appear when a file with the same name already exists."
