80. Re: Photoshop CS5 autosave feature?
Noel Carboni Oct 12, 2011 4:26 PM (in response to sfxjhw2)Until such a feature is available, I wonder if could write a quick app that would watch to see if you have Photoshop running and pop up a window reminding you to save every so often... Hmm....

sfxjhw2 Oct 12, 2011 4:46 PM (in response to Noel Carboni)Noel it's funny you mention that.
Photoshop's free competitor GIMP has had a simlar problem with recalcitrant devs/architechictual concerns/ROI issues (can that even happen with a free product? )/or whatever the reason (though seems more like no one willing to take up the cause).
The history can be found here:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138373
And the eventual workaround since no one seemed to attempt to build it into core, was that several users developed a user-level script to implement a solution. Here's one as an example:
http://registry.gimp.org/node/20875
I'm not sure photoshop has this functionality, but you certainly have my full support if you do. In fact, I would be willing to donate significantly to development of such a script.

bkmvl Oct 18, 2011 1:45 AM (in response to ac361)One thing that would be nice is a feature that i like in Corel Painter and that is the Iterative save(CTRL-ALT-S) for saving the filename with 001,002 and so on,in the event of a crash
you might at least not lose all your work, but of course won't help if you forget to save -

vengevenge Oct 26, 2011 2:55 PM (in response to ac361)I really can't stand little know-it-alls. Control-S. Control-S. Tee-hee. Nya. Hee-hee. Aren't you smart like me?
This does not work if you have to SCAN A BUNCH of IMAGES. I have lost hours upon hours of work trying to scan booklets only to have Photoshop die a horrible death.
YOU CANNOT SAVE INBETWEEN SCANS. thank you photoshop. THANK YOU for torture. and an impregnable scratch disk database which serves no purpose.
I refuse to re-scan these ******* images. Computers have ruined our lives.
