SUMMARY

Can't access functionality "File -> Save As" at all after installing kdenlive with Snap on Ubuntu 18.04.  I get a long series of messages in console related to AppArmor.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. sudo snap install kdenlive
2. start kdenlive on command line
3. try to save project (File -> Save As)

OBSERVED RESULT

Trying to do "File -> Save As" doesn't bring up any dialog, and gives a long list of messages in console, begining with:

Please try with the current Kdenlive AppImage version 20.04.0b to see if there are any packaging issues https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/release/ 

If the problem/issue doesn't occur when using the AppImage, then it's your configuration or packaging.

I downloaded AppImage version 20.04.0b as suggested, and did not have the problem.
Thanks! --- Jim.
