- **Bear Version** : 2.10 (14800)
- **OS Version** : 27.0 (26A428)
- **What were you doing** : Select multiple notes \> Export notes…
- **What happened** : Everything is fine until I change the export format to a different format (any of the other formats). Then the “Export notes” button becomes grayed out, and it stays grayed out even if I choose the originally selected export format again. Therefore, the only way to change to a different export format is to (1) choose the format (export button becomes grayed out), (2) close the dialogue, (3) “Export notes” again, and (4) now the previously chosen format will be the default so the button will not be grayed out (it only becomes grayed out after changing the format).

**Update:** The problem persists after restarting.
