I have problems reading the decoplan font in divemode underwater. I have no vision problems on the surface, I need no glasses and I can see even the version number easily from my wrist in the surface mode. Water and the mask somehow make my vision a bit blurry for the small details and thus it bites me whenever I can not easily read the full plan without guessing the numbers...

Idea 1: Would it be possible to increase the font size and to use multiple pages/views for the decoplan view in divemode (like with the decodata view in logbook)? I assume here the current decoplan view in divemode is optimised only for one page/view.

Idea 2: Would it be too difficult work to use the X1 approach with a time bar for each stop in decoplan view? Are there enough resources available for the calculation and drawing? In this idea the font size increment would perhaps not be needed as there would be a graphical message (even a bit blurry view would be fine...). This idea would probably also need the decoplan on multiple pages. I have no X1 so do not know exactly how it works, but I have seen the bars underwater and those look to be very informative.

I am very happy with the current (1.24) divemode display, but this would increase the comfort for me.

Anyway, I hope I am not alone with my vision problem and there will be improvements for the decoplan view in the future versions.

Hello,

Thanks for your suggestions. Is there a picture showing these bars somewhere? It's technically no problem to implement some more icons/graphics into the OSTC screen.

Personally, I want the OSTC outputs as clear as possible. 3m: 12' is very clear to me. A bigger font for the list is possible, as well.

Ok, I was a bit inaccurate. This feature is in V-Planner Live software for X1. I don't know about any other software for X1.

Anyway, I found one picture from v-planner manual on page 49, a stop table there:

Personally I like that view a lot.

Bigger font alone would be a great improvement for me. I probably must soon accept the fact the years don't pass without an effect. In this case my vision seems to be no more like it was 20 years ago...

Ok, very good idea since the actual time value is displayed, too.

Hello,

We finally coded the new decoplan:
