2020-10-03Subsurface User manual update: FilterGravatar willemferguson
This adds text to the user manual pertaining to the filter tool. 2 Figures removed, 7 figures added. Signed-off-by: willemferguson <willemferguson@zoology.up.ac.za>
2020-09-04Implement Seac SeacSync databaser parser.Gravatar James Wobser
Dives for the seac action computer are imported by the seacsync program into two tables in an sqlite3 database. The dive information is read from the headers_dive table. The dive_data table is then queried for each dive to get samples. The seac action computer is the only current supported computer by the seacsync program. It only supports two gas mixes, so the parser will toggle between two cylinders whenever it detects a change in the active O2 mix. Dive start time is stored in UTC with a timezone offset. A helper function to read this was added to qthelper. Default cases have been added to some switch statements to assist in future development for other dive types and salinity. Example database has been added to ./dives/TestDiveSeacSync.db Signed-off-by: James Wobser <james.wobser@gmail.com>

2020-05-05cleanup: capitalize use dcGravatar Monty Taylor
It was suggested in a review of a previous patchset that we should capitalize the use of "use dc" to "Use DC" - but if we were going to do that we should do it everywhere, not just in the one place. This is the followup to do that. Signed-off-by: Monty Taylor <mordred@inaugust.com>
2020-05-05cleanup: Change Salty to BrackishGravatar Monty Taylor
In the code, the difference between SALTYWATER and SALTWATER is hard to see. More importantly, in the UI - Brackish is the word for water that has more salt that freshwater but less salt that seawater. The docs already use the word to clarify what is meant.
2020-05-05Grantlee: Add salinity and water type to grantlee variablesGravatar Monty Taylor
These can be useful in a printed divelog, especially if the log entry is also showing weight and exposure suit. Signed-off-by: Monty Taylor <mordred@inaugust.com>

2019-11-28Add current GF to infoboxGravatar Robert C. Helling
As per request from users on scubaforum.com, this adds the current gradient factor to the deco information of the infobox.

2019-10-31Planner: Add option to treat O2 as narcoticGravatar Robert C. Helling

2019-04-16Write dive data as video subtitlesGravatar Robert C. Helling
This commit adds an entry to the dive media context menu which offers to write a subtitle file. This creates an .ass file for the selected videos. In an attempt to to clutter the screen too much, don't show irrelevant entries (zero temperature or NDL and show TTS only for dives with stops). VLC is able to show these subtitles directly, they can be integrated into the video file with ffmpeg. Signed-off-by: Robert C. Helling <helling@atdotde.de>
