Version:           unspecified
OS:                Linux

User prefers to plot data "All curves one plot"
Using Data Wizard, user selects Curve Placement "All curves in one plot" radio-button, and it works.

The same user wants to create another plot of another data set, using the same settings, maybe same tab.

However meanwhile the Curve Placement radio-button has reset to its default "1 new plot per curve", so it's necessary to select the same option again.

Worse, if the user forgets to select the option again, Kst goes ahead and plots all the curves, one new plot per curve; This then takes a while to clean up ..

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
Having used the Data Wizard once in a session, one would expect it to retain the previous selected values, so that it's not necessary to select them again.


Common behaviour both on Kst 1.8 and 2.0.
