HST files overwritten despite "Generate HST-file" is clear

Hi folks,
you did a pretty fine job making TickStory.
So thiss issue is just a minor one - as expected from a 1.5.2 release.
If you export into FXT-files and do not need new HST files (e.g. because they cover a longer history) then the existing HST files are overwritten and new HST files are generated despite the checkbox "Generate HST-files" is unchecked. That was pretty unexpected to me
I worked around this issue by pasting an empty directory into the HST file target folder textfield but it would be nice when Tickstory 1.5.3
honored the "Generate HST-files" checkbox. I assume that it also saves a bit time if unneded HST files are not generated.
Another thing which is merely a comfort thing than an issue is, that I have to check/uncheck/enter all the same settings on each export in the "Export into MT4" dialog. I thought it would be great if the dialog remembered the settings of the last MT4-export and if the next export in the currently running session would take the same settings again.
Anyway - Tickstory is fine and thanks to you guys again.
