Timed backups shouldn't steal focus

Post by rasa »

When I have timed backups turned on, and I create a new document, and before I've saved it to a file, TextPad annoys me by stealing the focus to insist I name the new document.

I would suggest it either save the document internally under a temporary name, or not try to autosave new documents.

Yes, it's related, but ....

I don't think we need another configuration option.

I would just like to see TextPad save the file automatically by the next available file name.

How about Document1, Document2, etc.

If the name is already used, it just tried the next one.

Yah, vote in the topic posted by s_reynisson. This behaviour should be optional.
