Hi,
I am not sure if this has been addressed at all but here it is,
When you hit the render button I would like my scene to autosave, incrementally or not that should be a preference.
Or maybe it is time to implement some scripting language so we can start automating these things.
Thank you

It is kind of autosaved in a designated folder (as bmp), or you can use the animation area to autosave in a chosen extension (or more), by rendering a sequence of 1.

This is a feature request we've had before. It's something we'll consider for the future. In the meantime I recommend getting in the habit of doing a manual incremental save before rendering. Perhaps adding a hotkey for Incremental Save would be helpful?

Doubt; was the tgd meant or the render?

Oshyan

I assumed he meant the TGD ("scene"). The images are, of course, possible to auto-save already, essentially.

In retrospect, you're right of course.

We already have incremental saving automatically when you hit Save....easy enough to do.....
