Visual Indicator of Time to Next Autosave
There is a countdown progress bar in the lower status bar area that displays the time left before the next auto save. The color of the bar changes as the time counts down. Auto save will only start when there are unsaved items in the project. This is a useful visual indicator when working on a project since ADE will stop taking user input for a short time while the autosave is in progress.
There is more than 50% of time left before the next autosave. Using the default autosave setting there is between 5 minutes and 2.5 minutes to the next autosave
There is less than 50% of time left but nore than 25%, Using the default setting there is between 2.5 minutes and 1 minute 15 seconds to the next autosave.
