[QDVDAuthor-users] Missing attributes from button tags in spumux menu.xml files

[Torsten C. <tor...@eB...>]

Dear list,

it seems I recently posted a message before my confirmation for joining 
the list was processed... Hence again:

Hi there,

admittedly, I am not using the latest version of qdvdauthor due to the 
fact that my OS (Debian) only provides an amlost 2 years old 2.00300 
version. Anyway, I wonder if the following is a bug or just the result 
of me being to dumb to use qdvdauthor correctly:

For a DVD, I created several menus with several buttons each. For each 
button, I explicitly defined which button to go to next when hitting any 
of the up/down/left/right direction keys. I am able to recover this 
information in the qdvdauthor project xml file. However, when actually 
creating the dvd, only the "up" attribute ends up in the generated 
spumux menu.xml files.

As example, please find an excerpt from my qdvdauthor project and the 
corresponding menu.xml below:

- Qdvdauthor project file (with ButtonObject subtags removed for clarity):

Funny, eh?

So... I wonder if any of you have experienced similar problems and if a 
solution is known.

Thanx in advance for any helpful hints --
