The List of Meals

This dialog is only available with the Diary+ add on

When you start using JXCirrus CalCount, you will notice that there are 6 set meals: Breakfast, Morning Tea, Lunch, Afternoon Tea, Dinner and Supper. There is also a single exercise session. If you are happy that describes your eating routine perfectly, then read no further.

It is, however, possible to set up the meals and exercise to exactly match how you do things. If don't even want to see "Afternoon Tea" in the list, you can remove it. If you are a hobbit and want to add "Elevenses" to the list, you can do that. If you call "Dinner", "Tea", then you can change that. If you want to split Exercise into morning and afternoon exercise, then you can do that.

To edit the meals, select Tools -> Meals from the menu. You will now see the Meals List.

The Main List

There are three columns in this list:

Add

If you want to add a new meal, press Add. This will pop up a small dialog that lets you edit a meal.

The Meal Edit Dialog

This has 2 fields and a checkbox:

Edit

This pops up the Meal Edit Dialog and lets you edit the details of an existing meal. For example, if you wanted to change the name of "Dinner" to "Tea", select "Dinner" in the list, then press edit, change the name to "Tea" and press OK - As if by magic "Dinner" changes to "Tea" in the list, and also on the main diary page.

Delete

Lets you delete a meal or exercise session. However: The system absolutely insists that there is at least one meal and at least one exercise session per day, or there would be nothing to add diary records against. It helpfully won't let you delete the last one of either.
