UG NX2 AutoSave
UG NX2 AutoSave
(OP)
Does anyone know if NX2 still supports the older AutoSave feature of years past? In earlier versions of UG you could toggle On and Off an AutoSave feature for timed file saves.
Or does anyone know of a quality application that will run soley off of a USB keydrive to manage an AutoSave? Since endusers are no longer allowed to write any applications to the corporate workstations...
Thanks for info

RE: UG NX2 AutoSave
Also we discovered that even with pre-V10.0, the value of the this function was often questioned by people who were "rudely interrupted" by an "auto save" right as they were ready to perform some operation and after this occured a second or a third time, the "Auto Save" feature was promptly turned-off.
And now with the advent of data management systems, such as TeamCenter, the whole issue of what is being saved and how it should be logged and responded to creates a whole new set of potential issues for companies.
In the end, if was deemed more work and effort than it was worth once everyone became aware of all of the options and exceptions and rules that would have be allowed for to make a truly useful and practical feature.

RE: UG NX2 AutoSave
I can understand where TeamCenter is certainly a useful tool. I've used the application and it's predecessors with varying degrees of success.
I was hoping there was still a simple top level save but as with all progress change is ever the companion, I just caught on this one. I'll track down a good macro or autosave program and run one from the outside.
Thanks again

CAD should pay for itself, shouldn't it?

RE: UG NX2 AutoSave
I found a couple of auto-timers that could save or simply remind you to save. I'll probably use them until we go to NX4 but I'm glad to hear the option will be available.
Thanks for the data guys, I appreciate the response.
Oh, if anyone else needs a "patch" until they go to NX4 this site had several references on autosave and timer applications:

I did notice that many of these are simple try-it before you buy-it with some functionality missing on the trial versions. But it looks like a good place to start...
