b762: "Don't move to history" Item property has no effect

I had expected that switching on the Don’t move to history option (Item Properties, Options tab) would stop the item moving to History (and to Recycle Bin?) after it is stopped, but the option seems to have no effect in either Automation or Assist modes.

The option is only meant for non-playable items, and only in assist mode. And that should work as far as I can tell.

Making this option available to playable items makes no sense, because auto load (in both assist and automation) always picks the first non-history item and loads it into an available player. If an item isn’t marked as “history” after being played, it would be loaded (and played) over and over again.

Unfortunately, there is no way to disable the option in the GUI for playable items for playable items currently. I will consider that for the redesigned Properties dialog in a future version.
