Quick post, hopefully useful reference material ….

getSaveMode(), returns a value indicating how the save event was initiated.

execObj.getEventArgs().getSaveMode()

Note: Don’t forget that you will need to tick the option to return the context as the first parameter on your on-save event.

Entity	Event Mode	Value
All	Save	1
All	Save and Close	2
All	Save and New	59
All	AutoSave	70
Activities	Save as Completed	58
All	Deactivate	5
All	Reactivate	6
User or Team owned entities	Assign	47
Email (E-mail)	Send	7
Lead	Qualify	16
Lead	Disqualify	15

The following code could be used to prevent save from auto save events!

function preventAutoSave(econtext) {
    var eventArgs = econtext.getEventArgs();
    if (eventArgs.getSaveMode() == 70) {
        eventArgs.preventDefault();
    }
}
