Problem:

Menu sub-options below "File" => "Export packet dissection" are disabled
(grayed out)

Steps taken:

1st: Start capture
2nd: Wait until some packets have been captured
3rd: Stop capture
4th: Try to export packet dissection, which is not possible

Workaround:

1st: Save capture as *.pcapng
2nd: Open *.pcapng
3rd: Export packet dissection, e.g. as plain text (options are no longer grayed
out)

Additional information:

There is another option "File" => "Export packet bytes" which remains grayed
even when using the workaround. You might want to take a look at that feature,
too.

Thanks in advance.
