Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NickeManarin/ScreenToGif/issues/39

Originally assigned to: @NickeManarin on GitHub.

1. Request

It would be nice, if you add option save as project after recording. If user record GIF and press stop, video automatic will be save as project.
It would be nice, if you add auto save option. Project will be automatic saved, for example, after 20 actions or 5 minutes of work.

2. Justification

Unfortunately, sometimes ScreenToGIF crash for me, if I edit my GIF. I need record and edit GIF again.

In order not to lose the results of my work, I need often save as project. If ScreenToGIF crash for me, I can open my project again and continue working. It would be nice, if Save as Project will be automatic.

3. Examples on other apps

For example, on Codepen.io site is automatic save after code changes.

Thanks.

You can now open recent projects by File > Recent Projects or Ctrl+L.

It will list all of your projects that didn't get erased on a list at the right side of the window, in a panel.

From there you can load the project as if you just recorded.

I still need to implement the "Auto save" feature. It is easy to do, I just need to create a setting like you wrote.

This feature is almost ready for v2.7.

Auto save feature done. The project is saved every time something is loaded, like after applying an overlay.
