Cells containing reactions - "save as structure" problem

Version 5.6.0.482


1) Import any RD file containing reactions


2) Select a cell containing a reaction diagram


3) Right click to get pop-up menu


3) Select "Save as Structure" menu item


4) File choices include MDL Molfile (*.mol), MDL RD file  (*.rdf), MDL SD file (*.sdf) ...


     BUT NO MDL Rxnfile (*.rxn) choice is offered


5) However if you save as a MDL Molfile (it adds a .mol extension) and then open that file with a text file editor the file is actually an MDL RXN file (saved with wrong file extension)


I guess the Save as Structure save dialog box should have the "MDL Molfile (*.mol)" option switched to "MDL Rxnfile (*.rxn)" when it knows it has a reaction in the cell.


The work-a-round for now is to save the file as a molfile and manually change the file extension
