[LMMS-devel] "Save new version" and number incrementation

[Tobiasz K. <un...@gm...>]

I often want to save a file with just incremented version number:


*unfa-SomeTrack-01.mmpzunfa-SomeTrack-02*
*.mmpz unfa-SomeTrack-03*
*.mmpz*
*etc.*

Blender has two buttons in the save dialog: [ + ] and [ - ]. What they do
is increment or decrement the last found number in the filename. If you
press [ + ] while there is no number, Blender adds one digit to the name:



*unfa-SometRack.mmpzunfa-SometRack1.mmpzunfa-SometRack2.mmpz*


*etc.*
This saves time, however I think we could go futher with this.

I propose making a [ Save new version ] option in the Faile menu that would:

1. increment last number found in the filename,
2. if there is none, add a digit "1" to the filename,
3. Save the file under new name
4. Show report that "New version: unfa-SometRack04.mmpz" was saved
successfully".

Also the [ + ] / [ - ] buttons in the Save Dialog would be cool, but that
might be harder to code, IDK.
