Public bug reported:
I have just installed Lubuntu 15.10, and have not yet changed all of my
"Open With..."preferred applications.
I am using eog (Gnome Image Viewer), and wished to bring up several photos with
eog from Nemo's "Open With..." context sub-menu.
I can do so, but I wished to take advantage of the option to make such choice a
default one for the file type, which is possible from the "Other Application"
sub-menu item.
Unfortunately, from within a Nemo window, there is no "Other Application"
sub-menu item.
I have Nemo run my desktop, and since there are photos there, I was able
to try to do the same thing there.
THAT "Open With..." context sub-menu DOES have the "Other Application"
sub-menu item.
I don't know why it should make a difference, but it does.
The "Other Application" option is available from the Desktop, but not
from within a Nemo window.
