Autosave

[akinlolu olugboji]

Just lost another eight hours rendering. Roy(on bended knee), could the next build of Nxt have the autosave directly link to the named view of the walk about window?

If the named view in walkabout is, "view one" then Nxt automatically create the file and continues save with that name. Should another view be generated and the render button hit, then another file is created corresponding to that named view.

For any reason the rendering is stopped and restart again, then Nxt should prompt if the file is to over written or another is create and labeled 002 of the previous one.

Could AutoSave be link with the name views in the walkabout window, as I just lost hours of work again as I forgot to rename in the AutoSave  column in UI.

Can you not use the Autosave function already in nXt?

Alternately, you could use the Farm or Batch render.  Unless, of course, you are just rendering the standard AutoCAD viewport, then none of these suggestions will work.

I use the AutoSave feature in Nxt, only should you forget to save a new name for another rendering it over writes the pervious one, thereby losing hours of work. I believe it either should auto-number the renders like AR4 and before or take the name from View in WalkAbout window.

[Garret Diduck]

Yes, you are correct and I agree. Seems like we lost a lot of functions from AR4.

Giving Batch Rendering a go now.
