Grouping dives/creating sessions
Posted: Thu Mar 21, 2013 2:59 am
Hello.
I've had this problem with normal dives a few times, now as I'm starting to add freediving logs to MacDive it's becoming quite a biggie though.
There are dives that are technically separate but belong to one "session" which I do not want to clutter up the list by showing them as single entries by default. Combining is no option either, as I want to be able to compare single dives.
In my paperlogbook it's easy to handle, I'm just combining them as a "session" and looking at single dives when needed but mostly being the summary of the dives, I could imagine something collapsible like this:
Where you have the summary-line (the session/group), ideally summarizing the data of the dives contained (or if that would be a lot less effort it'd also be a start to not have the session/summary actually contain any data apart from location and dates).
When you click the triangle, you expand the list and it shows all single dives.
Without a function like this I'm afraid the main lists will become quite overfilled with <10 second dives after a short while (as my perspective is to add around ~100 dives per week). You could also use it for grouping trips/holidays as separate groups.
I'm sure something like this'd be a rather practical feature for some divers but absolutely amazing for freedivers. Would it be possible to implement something in that direction?
Thanks!
