Can I set up a system so that I each time I create a patch, I can chooose between binary and full history patches?

E.g. for release 18.0.1 I want to do a full history patch (entirely replace several .dlls) but for release 18.0.2 I only changed 1 line of code that affected just 1 .exe so I just want to do a binary diff update.

In VP10, no. It always does full file patches. In v2.0 (currently in beta) it decides what to do. It will always try to save you the most space possible. It starts making binary diffs and will use them unless it would save more space just to include the whole file.
