* Click File -> Export objects* Click on a column, e.g., "hostname"* Select an object* Click saveand either:1) no dialog appears to save the file, or2) the wrong filename appears to be saved
I have also experienced this bug on version 2.6.0-0-gc7239f02. The Save function acts as though the list hasn't been sorted. For example if I sort the list by Size, then select the topmost item (the biggest size) and Save, I expect the object with the largest size to be saved. However what actually happens is that whichever object was first in the list originally (as sorted by the packet number) is saved instead.
My workaround is to do the desired sort, note the packet number of the object I'd like to export, sort again by the original Packet column, then find and select the previously noted packet (by number) before saving.
