Hi,
Coming from pre-Windows 3.1 times, with old unreliable MS Office Apps, I have a reflex action of saving my files every time I complete a few changes.
As a new learner I don't know when it is too soon to save changes to a file. Eg using Foreground Select Tool. I had completed the foreground select and before starting the background select I automatically tried to save the file. This last effort of three caused Windows to freeze completely. Half an hour later it became usable again, but the foreground selected was gone.
Does anyone know if there are guidelines anywhere for when it is safe to save work in progress? This would be very helpful and save a lot of time and effort.
Thanks.
