Hi,

I can confirm that LyX-2.3.x attempts to make backups every 5 minutes - even if 
I set the interval to one minute in preferences.

With LyX 2.4.x this is fixed.

In case nothing is changed there is no new backup written though.

BR, Stephan

Backups are not written nearly as often as they should be

2023-06-21 Thread R. H. van der Gaag
Hi all,
I have LyX set up to make backups when saving and also make backups (the term 
seems wrong for the automatic snapshots that these are) every two minutes. But 
when I look at the directory those files are supposed to be written to, there 
is a file there, but it not up to date, neither as an auto-saved snapshot nor 
as duplicate (a backup proper) - it is older than it should be, up to over an 
hour older sometimes. Am I overlooking something? I checked the path, and went 
from using a Dropbox directory to using one on my SSD, but results are the 
same. Before reporting this as a bug, I thought I should mention this here. I 
am on LyX 2.3.7, on macOS 13.4, Apple Silicon chip. 

Best,
RH
