That's your choice.

I couldn't follow the #314214 link, so I did my own test:
New Document, Draw A, F4.
Asks for File name, have one file with A.
Erase, Draw B, F4.
Document has B, 000 has A.
Erase, Draw C, F4.
Document has C, 000 has A, 001 has B.
Erase, Draw D, F4.
Document has D, 000 has A, 001 has B, 002 has C.
Erase, Draw E, Ctrl-S
Document has E, 000 has A, 001 has B, 002 has C.
F4
Document has E, 000 has A, 001 has B, 002 has C, 003 has E.

I see you corrected the typo.  My other suggestion is to not say "Backup the
original file you loaded".  The meaning of loaded is completely unclear.  What
it appears to do is backup from what you last saved.  If you haven't saved,
there is no incremental.  (Yes, it's a little hard to explain correctly, but I
think you have an obligation to say it correctly in the documentation.)

[I would guess a lot of users assume it works as I originally thought.  It's
not readily apparent what it is actually doing.  I've been using it a long time
myself, and didn't know until now.  I may have been confused when using
backups, but I apparently recovered.  It doesn't happen often, and I don't
remember.]

It looks like I can make it do what I want by saving (Ctrl-S), then incremental
(F4).  Just have to remember that.
