OK, this is my own stupidity but ...

Revert to Saved has just dumped about an hour of work on a project (and that was not really the religious experience of being saved that I had expected Sad ). I _think_ in my late night, light-headedness I absently thought that Curio was auto-saving in the background. I accidentally deleted an Idea Space that I wanted to recover (OK, again my stupidity ... warnings do exist about this). So, I think ... oh ... Revert to Saved will bring back the recent AutoSaved version that still has that Idea Space. Well, it did, but at the price of recovering the starting version from about an hour ago.

I imagine this is/will be resolved in Lion with auto-incremental backups. However, I would suggest that Revert to Saved should make a copy of the existing Project as a temporary file BEFORE reverting to the saved. That way, one could always go back to what one thought one wanted to dump (but really should not have).

Oh my. Sorry about the revert fiasco.

I learned some frustratingly discouraging news about Lion's Versions just yesterday which I'll post in a new forums topic in a bit. Stay tuned. Crying or Very sad
