remove history for renamed and newly saved files

Status: Declined

In my settings I have set that some automatic messages appear in the history of VIs (renaming and so). Now, I wanted to save a VI for a previous version of LV (downconvert form LV2014 to LV2010). I deleted the history for the LV2014 file and saved for previous versions. The history of the downconverted VI contains a single line (renaming) with my name in it. Now, I cannot edit and (re)save the file -- either it will be saved in LV2014 or the line will be there. It's a vicious circle. I suggest an option in the saving windows at saving (renaming) any VI: delete history (yes/no).

 

Right, I can unset the option in the Options for the Lv installation and then set them again. It's a workaround, but not a happy solution.
