I understand. I always try to be as precise as possible. Lately I 'm using
screencast because an illustration (video) is better than thousand words.

I have to dig into my old bug submissions related to gas management to
rebuild the whole story.
It seems to remember that:

- I should clearly identify my first/main tank and change whenever I like.
- I could have two or more identical tanks with same gas.
- The logic behind the current cylinder in use it's obscure.
- I would like to arrange tank order in the cylinder table.
- Current gas SAC stats are completely broken

I'm under the impression that the wonderful copy-paste procedure is messing
with current cilinder mistery.
I was trying to screencast the dive with ALL cylinders being current but
obviously after restarting Subsurface everything works.

Sorry about this but editing 12 technical dives with 4/5 different
cylinders and gases and dealing at the same time with:

http://trac.subsurface-divelog.org/ticket/753
http://trac.subsurface-divelog.org/ticket/754
http://trac.subsurface-divelog.org/ticket/732
<http://trac.subsurface-divelog.org/ticket/754> (solved but not in my
current build)
http://trac.subsurface-divelog.org/ticket/738
<http://trac.subsurface-divelog.org/ticket/754> (solved but not in my
current build)

And maybe other bugs (on current cylinder) is like running on a minefield
and only thinking to download and fill some other dives is like an incubus.

Bye
