    I am updating some of the text for the user manual. two questions:

    1) What does _File -> Take cloud storage online_ do?

No idea about this.

    2) If I download the same dive from two different dive computers,
    Subsurface sees that and allows one to view the different dive
    representations by selecting the _Next DC_ or _Previous DC_ menu
    options. However, if I plan a dive with the same date, time and
    location as a logged dive, the plan and log are shown as separate
    entries on the dive list. What determines whether two
    representations of the same dive are considered as a single dive
    with different dive computers?

In core/dive.c :
static int likely_same_dive(struct dive *a, struct dive *b)
{
        int match, fuzz = 20 * 60;

        /* don't merge manually added dives with anything */
        if (same_string(a->dc.model, "manually added dive") ||
            same_string(b->dc.model, "manually added dive"))
                return 0;

This function runs every time a dive is imported from a dc. Planned dives are marked "manually added" so they don't automatically merge with dowloaded dives.

BTW I don't think you make a dive and then plan it, you're probably doing the correct way (plan then dive). For sure this doubt came to you while working in the manual ;-)

    Can I save the dive plan and the corresponding log without
    allowing the dive plan to count as an actual dive?

Yes, you can.
Change the planned one so it has the same day/time the real one has. Then merge the two dives. You will end with a single dive which has the plan in the notes and 2 profiles, the real one and the planned one. Then edit as usual.

This may be a good tip in the manual for tech divers who routinely plan their dives, so they can easily compare their plans against their real dives just by clicking the arrow keys left and right.

Regards.

Salva.

Hi Salva,

Thanks for your idea. Did this but context menu has no merge option. Screenshot attached. With real dive and dive plan on dive list, I cannot merge, even with same date & time. Do I misunderstand something? Looks to me as if plan is not recognised as a valid dive to merge.
Kind regards,
willem
