Autosave: combination of operations and minutes


Christiaan

Question

We'd like be able to set a combination of time and operations for autosaving.

 

For instance, we'd like to be able to set autosave to every 30 operations. But we'd also like it to save if 1-29 operations have taken place and, say, 30 minutes has past since the last operation.

 

The reason is that every now and then we'll have a situation where someone's completed 1-29 operations (which can be quite a bit of work sometimes) and the has been a pause in work for some reason; talking to colleagues, gone to lunch, etc. Only to find VW crashes or the VW file has been corrupted somehow; they've been disconnected from the server or computer went to sleep, etc. etc.

OH this is so NECESSARY!!!! I've changed from timer to operations, but what we definitely need is BOTH at the same time... 

 

I'm finding that OPERATIONS does not account for TEXT operations, so if you "write an essay" inside VW (technical writing) and you can spend the whole day writing that VW won't prompt to autosave.

 

Definitely this is a must!
