When I right click on a view and choose "Export", I get this message:

exportmlo.jpg

I don't see an option for save nor reset.

How do i fix this so I can export the view to then import to android
Thanks

Hi, Ben. You are probably looking at  the list of views in the left edge sidebar, right? If the sidebar's not open hit alt-f1 a few times until you see the sidebar.

The left sidebar can show a list of views or  it can show all of the filter settings which make up the definition of the current view. We want to see the filters. If you are seeing the list of views, look at the bottom of the sidebar and click where it says ^Filter

Now you are looking at the filter definition. At the bottom it should say [Discard Changes]

You probably started with a saved view and modified it. You probably have three choices: (1) click on [discard changes] to throw away the changes you made and go back to the saved original. (2) If you want to throw away the original view you started with and save only the modified version, click the triangle after "discard changes" and select "Save View". (3) If you want to keep both the original and modified versions, select "Save view as. . ." and enter a new name for the modified version

After you have selected one of these, the button that used to say "discard changes" now says "Save view As" and you are ready to export.
