I just noticed that working on video files and then force quitting when the app becomes too laggy or freezes that pix pro would leave huge hidden files named something like 'unsaved image file' somewhere in it's app support folders and also huge temp files in the private var containers when working on movies.
These do not delete themselves and the app does not clean them up and if you don't track them down you are losing huge chunks of disk space, talking about gigabytes of space when leftover from movie edits.
Thanks
