Figmatt Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I'd like to see support for native Mac OS X version control. Many apps automatically save versions of documents as you work on them. At any time, you can browse through document versions and go back to an older version. You can also explicitly save a version. A version is saved automatically every hour, or more frequently when you’re making many changes. A version is also saved when you open, save, duplicate, lock, rename, or revert a document. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14378 Hector Leon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Andy Somerfield Posted October 6, 2014 Staff Share Posted October 6, 2014 Hi matt, This is something we did a lot of thinking about - the majority of our focus-group users preferred the old-school way of being asked when they quit, etc. It's certainly not off the table though - if it's something people might find useful! Thanks, AndyS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KipV Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Yes, Andy I would find it very useful. I like how with modern OS X apps I can shut my computer down and all the files just close without asking me if I want to save anything and then all the files reopen when I start the computer up again. Having versions would be nice too. Affinity has a great history panel but I believe a file's old versions will still stay around even after closing the file down which would provide additional functionality. I would also like the duplicate, rename, move to, menu options as well as the ability to change the title and tags by clicking on the menu bar.

Jose III Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 +1 for this feature request. OS X's Auto Save and Versions are extremely useful for designers, especially those who take advantage of Time Machine to be as flexible as a client's mood swings and changes-of-heart. I hope you re-consider putting this into AD. KipV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kckbxr259 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I would like to see an Auto Save feature. Gee this post is old. Is Auto Save out now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
