Import automatic save question

When I import a file from another system (NX for example) KC is autosaving the imported file as a .ckd in the same folder as the original file. Is there a way to turn this off? It appears to occur instantly upon translation of the file.

RE:Import automatic save question

I am running the exact same build and version you are running and am not seeing this phenomenon.

Is it possible that the autosave function just happens to be set short time enough that it happens to save once the file is imported? If so, you can just uncheck the autosave button before importing or change the time interval for your autosaves.

Tools
Application Options
(3rd one down is) Saving

Check or Uncheck as needed after reviewing the available options.

(I'm assuming you know all this and it's some sort of other issue but wanted to offer it up anyway.)

RE:Import automatic save question

I should note that I do not import those types of files. Just the more standard step, iges, dwg, etc.
