Confirmation before saving project

[arnaud]

Hi all !
I just installed v7.5 on my computer, and I don't have any confirmation box when I close my changed project.
It is automatically saved without confirmation.
Is there a setting I can change somewhere to disable this "autosave" feature ?
Thanks a lot !

No that is not possible.
Search the forum for the reason why.

Please read the following user guide page:

Most changes in EA are committed immediately.  One of the few exceptions to this rule are changes to diagram formatting, which should prompt you for any unsaved changes when you close EA.

There is an option that affects auto saving of diagrams.  See Tools | Options | Diagram | Behaviour | Auto Save Changes.

EA was designed for concurrent use, so changes are committed to the database immediately to ensure all users can see the model in the same state. If you want to protect yourself from making mistakes, you can take a backup copy of your EAP file before you open it, or you can look into a version control solution.

Thanks a lot for those answers.
My main concern was diagram formatting. But I think I will setup a version control system, since we already have a svn server that we use for some developments.
Thanks again !
