Not enough memory; Resolution to save completed work
« on: December 01, 2023, 01:50:20 PM »
Would it be possible that when we get the "Not enough memory" error, due to the drive not having space to save (usually the mesh), we get an option to free up drive space and retry to save the data?
Currently, we can lose many, 10 to 20 or even more hours of processing, and need to retry.

Or a check of the drive to see if it has adequate space for the predicted file size

When a process is running or has completed and there is not enough disk space to proceed, Metashape will pop up an error dialogue box that warns the user that there is no disk space, at which point the action has 100% failed with no way to retry or resume.

Could you put a Retry\Resume button on this dialogue type, so that we can free up disk space and carry on without losing the work already done, it could be that 20+ hours of processing has just completed and is being lost due to something that can be easily dealt with.

After the user has freed up disk space all Metashape has to do, is retry that action it was stuck on, and the process would continue without any loss.
