Select the File Dialog to point to where your scene is saved.

Set the Time to how often you want to
automatically save your scene.

Select the Off/On button to start the script that runs from a Timer.

Very IMPORTANT to turn OFF the Save RsScn.RsObj when you are done, else it will continue to run in the background!

Even better if you select the bottom X button it will close the floating panel and delete the Save RsScn.RsObj from System. Right click saves a copy to your scene.

This would be awesome to combat the stability of TS. Thanks for developing this.

Small update.
I enlarged the Screen Thumbnail and changed the Time script.

New update...

Moved the Save RsScn panel out of the scene to System.
So now it does not save with the scene.

Also developed a Save RsScn Incrementally

I tried this and I get this error>

Hummm, I just downloaded it and tried it and worked without error.
You need to create a scene first and then use the File Dialog to locate it and select it.

If you are just selecting the On/Off button with the included file path:
C:\trueSpace761\tS\Rs Main Libraries\My Scene\My Backup.RsScn
You do not have that scene.
The included file path is a library and scene that is included in the Unofficial Update version 4

OK, I understand now how it works. It works fine except I don't really understand how you get a thumbnail update, as shown in "My Backup Scene".
