Tom,
I can neither confirm nor deny whether Constellation's auto save and
archive process "cleanses" or "fixes" something about the Rev IDE so
that you have fewer crashes. I would not think so. However, I have
very few crashes in the Rev IDE and, of course, I use Constellation
and it's assorted Gadgets (Object Gadget, Inspection Gadget and
Transcript Gadget).
Best,
Jerry
Buy Constellation from Runtime Revolution!

will have to use History
Photoshop - save after every layer is introduced and save after
every filter is appied
Illustrator - save after layers are introduced, save after any effect
FileMakerPro - save after every template change
DirectorMX - save after every import, save after place image, save
after script change, save often
FlashMX - save, save, save, save
Freehand - save after import or major changes - not bad actually
Painter - as bad as photoshop
iMovie - save often
iDVD - save often
GarageBand - save often
Every major package I own requires many many saves in every usage
session. I had to learn this early on when doing graphics on Main
Frame Computers like the Moonbase, Genigraphics, Zerox. If you
didn't save every few minutes you would lose all of your work.
Some programs require more than others and REV in my opinion by
it's very nature requires lots of saves. It's programming after all.
I would expect it to require lots of saves.
What happens when you use a backup software or Constellation?? Does
it crash less with auto back ups?
Thanks
Tom

It has been a hard lesson to learn - especially coming from a
