Package: avogadro Severity: important Version: 0.8.1-4 Tags: patch The File->Export->"Graphics Export" menu item is greyed out on all system which do not support the GL_EXT_framebuffer_object OpenGL extension, which seems to be the case at least for intel and radeon x.org drivers, while proprietary nvidia drivers are reported to work.
As graphics export is a major feature of a molecule viewer/builder, this issue severly reduces functionality (there is a "PovRay Export" item as well, but as povray is non-free, and the output is slightly different, png export is still highly desirable). Tim Vandermeersch has developped a small patch which grabs a QPixmap via QPixmap::grabWindow() rather than a QImage via QGLWidget::grabFrameBuffer and which seems to work fine with all graphics cards/drivers (at last on my radeon it now works).
