Description J M Cerqueira Esteves 2012-07-19 19:33:07 UTC
In the braindump version currently incliuded in Debian Wheezy, 0.11.0 (details in my bug report for Debian, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=682077 ), the File menu has only one entry ("Quit") and I find no way to export, print, or even save -- apart from an automatic save mechanism (with no apparent away to control where whiteboards are saved).
A result of deliberate design, incomplete development, simply a bug, or may I have failed to notice some interface detail? 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start braindump
2. Work on the whiteboard
3. Try to find some way to explictly save it somewhere (apart from automatic saving, noticeable if not obvious at first), export it in some format, print it.


Expected Results:  
I'd expect to find some way to perform the tasks referred to above, even if available by some non-traditional interface choice (even though one could argue that interfaces available for some main tasks should be consistent across a suite like Calligra). Not being able to print or somehow include some output of braindump whiteboards in other documents seriously limits its usefulness, imho (thus labelling it as of "major" severity).

I also noticed that i could not save nor open. I just pressed quit hoping that the menus where not implemented, but it just closed. No apparent save  action was taken.
There is only one option: quit

OS: Fedora 17

Export and print is a good idea. But save is not part of how the application works, braindump automatically save to disk any modifications.
