System Variable ISAVEPERCENT

Influences how often the application performs a full save. A full save takes longer than a partial save.

When working with extremely large .dwg files, a full save can be slow. Incremental file saving saves only modified data, which is faster than a full save for large files that contain only minor modifications.

The variable approximately specifies the amount of space allocated in drawing files (in percent) for incremental saves, which affects the number of incremental save operations that can be performed before a full save is required.

Values

The value of the variable is a percentage of wasted space tolerated in the drawing file.

  • If the value is equal to 0, a full save is performed each time.

  • If the actual percentage of wasted space is less than or equal to the specified value, an incremental file save is performed.

  • If the actual percentage of wasted space is greater than the specified value, a full save is performed.

Valid values range between 0 and 100 percent. The default value is 50 percent.
