How do you restore the journal?

How do you restore the journal?
Hi,

Oscar has a nice backup folder and I can see that it stores all the original data from the SD card. I would expect you could import this to a new profile by adding data to the backup folder and do a Data -> Rebuild CPAP data. Maybe even do a SD card import and just point it at this folder.

But what about the journal?

I see "File -> Backup Journal" which will create a xml file.

But the backup is just a plain XML file. If you look at the profile structure the journal folder has an ID attached. But it is only created when you add the first entry. So maybe I just dump the XML  file on top of that?

When I have a "Backup Journal" I would also expect to have a way to restore it.

Why don't I simply backup the full profile? As i have found that data corruption can occur in the profile it would be nice to be able to rebuild from source data. It seems like the functionality is almost there.

I have looked around but was not able to find any info on this.

Kind Regards
clan
