Looks like this bug. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3387444&group_id=7118&atid=107118 Can I do something about it to have the feature working?

Error while loading default properties. Is this normal? thanks.
Alright thanks for the report, I knew that the export functions were not all working but it seems that freemind is looking only in relative directories. So we will see what we could do about it.
As a quick workaround to get working export is to start freemind in the following way: - open up a terminal - cd /usr/share/freemind - freemind Hope this helps in the mean time.
Yes, it helps. Thank. I had seen the workaround in the sourceforge bug report in comment 1.
I'm seeing this same issue in f16

Will there be a f15 package, please.
Hi, given that fedora 15 will reach eol shortly I don't really want to push an updated version. I would suggest that you just try the workaround (which I use to fix this bug) locally on your machine. Just edit as root the file /usr/bin/freemind and add the line cd /usr/share/freemind right before the comment: # Let's start If you have any further questions please just ask. HTH

I am an end user. I need to input Japanese (using ibus) in my Freemind documents. That does not work using the workaround. It's probably because ibus starts locally with my user profile /home/, and freemind starts from /usr/ I can type Japanese just fine in Freemind when I launch it from my user profile, but then I cannot export. I know 15 reaches eol soon. I am not sure I can upgrade anytime soon, I will probably install F-17 mid-August, during the holidays. Do you have a suggestion? Thank you.
Well the problem is, that the workaround basically is just, what I told you to do. So your ibus input won't work for you, but weren't there another bugs about problems of using ibus as input for freemind? I am wondering if it's really caused by the change of the directory in the freemind startup script.
(In reply to comment #13) > do. So your ibus input won't work for you, but weren't there another bugs about > problems of using ibus as input for freemind? The problem was with the LXPanel on this hardware. Changing panel fixed the issue. > I am wondering if it's really caused by the change of the directory in the > freemind startup script. My apology, it works. I sometimes have to click outside the node and click back in to get the Japanese input, but it works. And I am fine. Thank you again for the feedback, and for the explanation. > Just edit as root the file > /usr/bin/freemind > and add the line > cd /usr/share/freemind > right before the comment: > # Let's start It's much more convenient that way.
