Diving Log 5.0 – New profile functionality and more

Today I’ve uploaded an update which brings a lot of the missing profile features from version 4.0. And there are a few more things included in this update:

  • Sort dives function
  • Profile data and graphic export
  • Profile split and merge
  • Profile cursor and auto scroll
  • Tank pressure gauge works now also without tank profile
  • Ascend/descend rate profile improved
  • Comments print function
  • Layout gallery in Ribbon
  • Time zone picker in country editor

The dives sorting and renumbering feature (menu File > Logbook Maintenance > Sort Logbook) is now included. Remember, in version 5.0 you can also sort a set of dives in the table editor.

The profile export function allows you to export the profile data to the clipboard, text, CSV, Excel and printer and the profile graphic to the clipboard, image file and printer. The profile split and merge feature is now also included as well as the red cursor line and the auto scroll function. The tank pressure gauge will now also work if no tank profile is available, by interpolating between start and end pressure. The only thing that is still missing is the profile editing function.

The ascend / descend profile calculation has been improved. With the old method the profile was difficult to read when the computer used short recording intervals. The new calculation outputs a much better profile which is more realistic.

In the layout tab of the ribbon I’ve included a ribbon gallery with layouts included in Diving Log. In future I want to add more layouts (e.g. for small Netbook screens) and a way to add your own layouts to this gallery.
