Export settings aren't persisted between use #2671

Description

When exporting a graph or a png/svg/pdf, one can configure some options. When those options are changed, and then a new export is made they don't seem to be applied. Only if the user re-opens the options panel they are.

Expected Behavior

Last settings are applied.

Current Behavior

Defaults are used when the export "Options" panel isn't opened before export.

Possible Solution

Making sure the options settings are applied

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Gephi and a sample graph
  2. Export > graph file (but could also be vectorial)
  3. Change an option via "Options" panel
  4. Export done
  5. Export > graph file but don't click on Options
  6. Export again, and observe that this option wasn't taken in account

Context

The generic framework around export settings is that Gephi remembers the last applied settings, regardless of the project or the workspace. In the future, we want to improve this so it sticks to the workspace, and to the .gephi file. But for now, this at least should help usability.

Your Environment

  • Version used: Gephi 0.9.7
  • Operating System: Mac OS
