Is there any way we can get autosave to be ON by default. I just lost 2 hours of work because I took for granted the fact that autosave would be on but it wasnt. I know it's totally my fault for losing the work because I failed to save like I should have but I wouldnt have lost anything had the preference been on. Is there any reason it is toggled OFF by default?! What is the official request mail? I searched the archive but couldn't seem to find it. Thanks!


The reason I find myself turning autosave OFF is that it interrupts the render region, and make it start over.

I would really like to see this ridiculous bahavior fixed! Either give an optiont o not autosave when the render region is rendering, or, better yet, save the scene without having to re-start the region (unset the "dirty" flag that causes the region to restart).
