When you've got no library loaded this section of the menu doesn't show.

The last image is another menu-item than in your first message.
Which one are you missing?

The trouble is with my scheme in work environment
if I load the standard scheme the (save selection as ) is available

If I load my scheme or the command layout scheme the
(save selection as) is not available.

Ah, I see what you mean.
Hmm, good question.
Under 'Application commands and menus' they should all be there.
'Save Selection as...' is not the only thing which is missing.

At this point I've have no idea why it's missing.
Maybe you should make a new scheme.

What you are looking for in a predefined menu. If you are lacking the menu, for whatever reason, just recreate it by defining a new menu and adding the appropriate commands.

The point is that he doesn't have the menu item 'Save Selection as...' on the left. It's missing so he can't ad it.

--- seems like a bug to me --- maybe someone knows a simple way to get it back ?
