cannot "attach stored copy of file" in saved search

migugg
This may be a bug and I found nothing in the forums:
When I try to attach a stored copy of a file from an item in a saved search the option in the menu is greyed out. It works on the same item if I try to do it in the main library. Would be practical if it did work
happens on 2.0.9

    Bumping this up, for attention, and replicating

    Zotero 2.16, Ubuntu 10.04,

    attempt to Add Attachment/Add Stored Copy option has no icon, but not "greyed-out". No activity on pressing space where icon should be... not that I expected.

    This problem persists in 2.1.7

    Select entry from main database, Right click, select "Add Attachment", {Add Snapshot; Add Link to Page; Add Stored; Add iInk to File}.

    Options 1 &^ 2 have icon, with "chain-link" image and blue background.
    Option 3 has blank space where file icon should be;
    Option 4: uncoloured icon with "chain-link" image.


    Options 1 & 2 work as expected. No action when Option 3 selected.
    Option 4 (Add link to File) does not appear to be working.

    Thus, functionality seems associated with presence of full coloured, chain-link icon.
