AutoSave and License Timeout |
|
|
Hello, I'm getting ready to configure AutoCAD's license timeout, and reading
AutoDesk's article TS67304 got me wondering about this.
The article states the following:
-------------------------
Idle Period: Any of the following activity in the active Autodesk
application prevents the client workstation from being idle:
Any keystrokes
Any mouse click
Any command, Lisp expression, menu macro or script in progress
Any modal dialog is opened (a dialog box which needs to close before
continuing to other tasks)
-------------------------
Does this mean that if let's say I have autosave configured at 20 minutes,
and the license idle period set at 30 minutes that it will never timeout?
Hope someone can clarify this for me.
Thanks.

I have our settings to autosave every 10:th minute and the timeout set for
15 minutes. And it works as it should. Autosave doesn't seem to affect it.

Autosave only activates if there are changes to the drawing. If it just sits
there with no changes being made then there is no Autosave and the license
will timeout.
If there are changes being made then the license will not time out anyway.
So as Jimmy said: Autosave has no effect.
