I don't...
Just entered a weight of 2.268 kilos in a dive at divelogs.de (which I
do round to 2 digits, as I never thought a few grams would be of
importance).
This results in 2.27 kilos in the database and diplays as exactly 5 lbs
on the dive after setting my logbook to imperial. I have the feeling,
that the dive had 2.3 kilos when it got into divelogs.de (as this would
explain the 5.1 lbs). I don't do any additional rounding when reading
the XML of the DLD files, so I'd like to check what got exported to
divelogs.de
Richard, could you please give me a link to the dive? How did the dive
get into divelogs.de? The exact path of where the dive went in its
digital life would help figure out where the rounding got screwed up.
Thanks,
Rainer
