Hi Steve,
As Anton pointed out in this thread:
http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/pipermail/subsurface/2017-May/028433.html
Subsurface shoulbe be able to display oxygen and diluent consumption 
simultaneously. At least for units like MkVI which logs cylinder's pressure 
natively.
Right now I'm record pressures manually: I add start/end pressures for default 
cylinder (diluent) and I add manually the oxygen cylinder recording start/end 
pressure. Unfortunately on "Info" tab gas consumption is not calculated (as raw 
liters) even for the default cylinder making the whole procedure for ccr pretty 
useless.
In my message I tried to describe IMHO a use case for units equipped with 
shearwater electronic:

What do you think?

I wonder what it would take for 'activate' subsurface to display the dil and o2 
like it does for the MkVI, maybe it just needs some code to check the dive mode 
/ dctype and existing pressures then do the output as the MkVI code?
I originally thought it was because of a bug that the gas was set to the wrong 
type as dil and o2 were not in the 'Use' list anymore.

I thought your use case description looked very good and normal for most ccr 
divers using most electronics.
The one exception is that almost all of the ccr divers I talk with express o2 
consumption as litres per minute as that way the oxygen tank size does not 
matter like it does expressed as your bar per hour example.

Steve
