Photoshop: 'Save with history'
In the save dialog in photoshop, you can check or uncheck: 'layers', 'as a copy' and some other options.
It would be nice if you could also check 'with history', to preserve your history while closing or sending a file.
In that way, other people that open your file can see the steps you've made, and you can get back to how you started a year after your project is finished.
It takes up some more space of course, maybe the application can show you how much of a difference in MB's it would take.

And pre-calculating file-sizes is not always reasonable.

You may be aware of that and just feel it is insufficient for your needs, but if one adheres to the principles of non-destructive image editing I think one can do that just fine as is.

History crashes or you want to be able to undo some things after you close the file.
I'm aware that this will make the file size larger, but sometimes I want to shut down and have the snapshots still there in the morning just in case I screw up. As much as I love Photoshop, I can't do it in my sleep and my compie needs a break too.
So please let us save history/protect history upon exiting the program.

Ich hätte gern einen Protokolleintrag, wenn ich eine Datei speichere oder exportiere (Für web speichern). Rückgängig machen läßt der sich natürlich nicht, soll nur als Info dienen.
Der Eintrag sollte enthalten, unter welchem Namen, Dateityp und auf welche Art gespeichert wurde. (z.B.: "blabla.png, PNG24, Für Web" oder "test.psd, PSD, Als Kopie")

Till now it is impossible to close a running workflow n keep the protocoll for the next time i ll get in work again except as a textversion but who needs that except for some tut ́s? I want to save my protocoll in the psd file in a way that i could use it like i ́ve never closed my work. In my opinion that ́s one of the biggest deficits of photoshop!

Save Photoshop History in a PSD file.
When I (re)open a PSD file in Photoshop it would be really nice if the History was still available.
Can my History (like 40 History states) be saved in my PSD file?

Retaining the History of project even after closing and then reopening the same project.
Though Photoshop is a great tool but I think it would be great if we could retain the history of a project. I would make myself clear this way... If I'm working on a project and for the reason I have to save and quit the application. when I return back and reopen the same project all the previous history is gone. It starts where I left off but still the history is all blank no details of previous session.

Sorry for starting this topic, I know better now! It's a dumb idea.
What did I know, 2 years ago...
With smart objects, smart filters, layer masks and layer comps, anything can be undone.

But it's really horrible to not be able to go backwards step-by-step on any given file after having closed it. I'd gladly sacrifice memory and or disk space to get true step by step history reproduction from start to finish - as an option - when I required it. It's already there when the file is open - a SAVE option isn't rocket science.

DREAM ON... Would love it if there was a feature that when saving, the FULL HISTORY is preserved (Save w/History) with the .psd file so that when you open that .psd the FULL HISTORY is intact...
