The Problem:
Currently all autosaved backup files are created with the same preview image the original file had the last time it was manually saved. This means if you are browsing multiple/historical backups of your file, you can't tell what progress each file contains until you open it up which consumes unnecessary time and makes the process unnecessarily convoluted.
The Proposal:
When Vectorworks:
creates an autosave backup file
OR
autosaves over the original file
update the file’s preview image to reflect what is currently in-view.
The Benefit:
This will help users:
Identify which file contains the stage of progress they wish to roll back to.
Identify what stage of progress they were up to (before - for example - their original Ele became corrupt/lost) and therefore what work will need to be redone.
