In this tutorial you'll learn how to use the template function in the logbook window. Templates are used for data which is not changing over several dives. In a holiday this is for example Country, City, Tanksize, Divesuit, Watertype,...

Templates can be applied afterwards to one or more dives or can be used as base for new dives. A typical way is:

• Download your dives from the dive computer and import them in Diving Log
• Enter in the first new dive missing data such as Country, Buddy, Divesuit,...
• Save the changes of the dive
• Save the dive as template
• Enter a filename and a description of the template
• Select the fields which should be included in the template (fields which are identical for all new dives)
• Save the template
• Select all other new imported dives
• Apply the template to the selected dives
