Description

Nature of issue?
  • New feature request
New feature details:

Hi, is it possible to enable auto-save as soon as a user is logged in and starts a new project? Currently I believe the auto-save only enables AFTER the user saves the project for the first time...

Thanks!

Research direction

Start by reviewing the editor's autosave and unsaved-change behavior for a logged-in user creating a new project. Clarify whether the intended result is enabling autosave immediately or showing an alert before losing unsaved changes, then verify the chosen behavior for a newly created project before considering the issue done.
