I just started evaluating HM3.14, but there are a few items which do not seem to be in the program documentation or I have missed them completely.

First, what do the "Synchronize counters" and "Synchronize status & alerts" checkboxes do exactly?

Second, what is the purpose of the "Action depends on bad one" checkbox in the Good Status Actions properties page? The dropdown box next to it appears to be linked to the Bad Status actions, but I'm don't understand its use.

Third, in the "action properties" when creating an SNPP action, what are the time intervals in the "Level" selection and "Alert" checkbox used for?

Lastly, nothing happens when you click the help button in an Action properties page. This is a trival bug, but I thought I should mention it while I'm here.

In HostMonitor 3.16 (was uploaded 20 min ago) all Help buttons work, also you can use F1 key

Wow, that's quick work! Thanks for the quick update and additions to the docs. This looks like the perfect package to replace the two different monitoring software we're currently using.
