	shotwell (Ubuntu)	Fix Released	Low	Unassigned

Bug Description

When you right click on a picture and choose 'Send to' you get the option to 'Scale contraint'.
Choose 'width' -> (for example) 800
Next step fill in a emailaddress (no compresssion!) and click send (By the way, a better name for the button will be 'Next').

We get a email with the attachment: Holes%20by%20FireCobold.jpg
In '/tmp/shotwell/6084/Holes by FireCobold.jpg' we have a resized picture (with spaces in the file name)

If we click 'Send' we get a error: Can't find attachement!

Hi, and thank you for taking time to report this problem to us.

I'd like to get more details about how to reproduce this; may I know what email client you're using when this happens?

On the topic of renaming the button for better clarity, I'll bring that up with the rest of the team ASAP.

Andries,

I just tried your steps with Shotwell 0.11+trunk, Ubuntu 11.10 and Thunderbird 7.0 and everything worked just fine - both the on-disk filename and the attachment filename contain spaces. So it looks like this has been fixed by the newer versions of one or more of these software entities.
