Comment 10 for bug 493588

Ran Inkscape as you suggested and moved the program window nearly off the
screen. I gave the Save As command. For a brief moment, (< a second), I
could see a box image form in the upper left quadrant of the screen. It
disappeard. Form some reason the box image is transient.

Subject: [Bug 493588] Re: Save dialog boxes do not appear on save command.

- thanks for the feedback
- with respect to the theme, mine sounds the same as yours. I'm on Windows
XP, and I have changed the background image and the taskbar color, so when I
interrogate Display Properties I get my theme shown as "Windows XP
(Modified)", with other options labelled as "Windows XP" and "Windows
Classic". In any event, this is not causing a problem on my machine.

- I wonder if there is a remote chance that the Save As... dialog is
completely hidden behind Inkscape. Normally one runs Inkscape maximized,
so you cannot check to see what is behind it. Could you try running the
Inkscape window as resizeable and movable, and move it well off-screen
before you call up the Save As.. dialog?

Bug description:
Save dialog boxes do not appear on save command. I am using Windows XP SP2

"waiting for an entry mode" with the usual bonk. I can release this mode by
pressing ESC.
