Copy / Paste

Post by v3rlon »

I am converting my old logs from paper to electronic using MacDive. There are enough that I am concerned about seeing carps in my tunnels at this rate. I prefer to see Carp in the wild, thank you.

Can we get Copy/paste functionality. For example, in Cozumel, I am entering my dive site by
Country: Mexico
Location: Cozumel
Site Name: (dive site name such as Santa Rosa)

Now like many people, I dove at a bunch of these sites, but a lot of information was constant. The country and Cozumel, the current and so on. How about being able to right click on Yocab and 'duplicate, cmd-D?)' then editing details to fit Santa Rosa. This would work for different locations in lakes, rivers, and reefs.

I do not see anything about this in the manual, but maybe I missed it as a new user.

There are two easy methods.

One, using Quick Create. When you quick-create a site the Country/Location remain and you can simply go to the next dive, change the name and create the next site. This is covered in the User Guide:

Two, using the Table/List view in Sites. Make as many sites as you want. Select them all. Open the Site Inspector and change the Country/Location for them all at once.
