[Bug 679917] Re: Backup copy of project.

 

The filename are all very unixy and does not look good on windows.

Furthermore, if you hold a handle to a file you can not rename the same file in a second instance. So this will break.
Also this will show unpredictable behaviour if you open more than 10 instances (unlikely, but possible).

Also it would be nice to have a clean up routine and to have the
possiblity to deactivate this function.

Title:
  Backup copy of project.

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hugin just crashed on me. Pre 0.7.0 this happened so often that I knew I had to save often, or risk losing my work. 

So far this is the first since I went to 0.7.0. Now 0.8.0 crashed on me.... However I'm most pissed that a pto file got saved to run "nona", but this gets (I think) cleaned up after running nona. So now I'm left with a project file with hours of work missing. 

PLEASE write a backup pto file where I can find it, or mention "this project had unsaved changes when hugin crashed, load the backup file?" when I start it. (then I don't need to know where the backup is stored...).
