I didn’t go for your simpler approach as it is ambiguous: Given a real dive, at
which point is the planner supposed to take over? The first time you violate
the ceiling? Or the last? Imagine for example that you first violate the
ceiling at 22m but then you stop at 21m an stay there longer than needed, e.g.
until the ceiling drops to 12m. Then you proceed with your ascent and again at
5m go through the ceiling again and surface. Which is the information you
would want to be displayed?
Therefore, with my proposed solution, the decides at which waypoint the planner
is supposed to take over by holding the control key and clicking the
corresponding dustbin icon in the table (thereby deleting that and all
following waypoints).
If you simply want to know a time to surface at each point of the dive, we have
been doing that for a long time: This can be turned on with one of the icons
besides the profile and displays the TTS in the info box (I should say,
however, that this can be a bit expensive in computation time, so the
responsiveness of the user interface loses some snappiness).
Hope that helps.
