Re: gEDA-user: gschem save as dialog suggestion

[Carlos Nieves Ónega <cnieves.mail@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Karel,
the open and save dialogs were changed in the last release, and they
will be changed again in the next one. The goal is to use the default
GTK load/save dialogs, with the preview widget working.

It seems you haven't updated to the latest release, so give it a try.

Regards,

Carlos
