Yup - just 1 undo step and then not always available (depends on what you did last). The way I work is: Start new scene (empty). Add bits'n'pieces for a while, move them around til approx right then Save in new directory as "/00a" From then on I NEVER do more than about 10 mins work without doing a save. If I'm happy with what I've achieved I save under a new name (eg 00b, 00c, ...) As soon as I get to a point where I think "Ok, I'm happy with that now, time to move on to the next bit", I save as "01a" and continue on as before. (I use the additional leading '0' just so that the files list correctly in the dialogues) I also save immediately before embarking on any experimental stuff, and NEVER overwrite that file. As soon as I have managed an effect/pose/expression/whatever that I like, I save it as a "next number" save. And so on.... It's not a perfect solution, but it works for me (with a few frustrations..) Basically, the rule comes down to "Save Early and Save Often" (like in voting). Once I'm happy with what I've got, I chuck all the redundant "incremental" saves into the rubbish bin Cheers, Diolma
