update data when monthlylog edition

Hello,

Sometime my station return bad data (I don't know why...) and then when it appear , I modify the monthly log file (using menu 'data logs / monthly logs').

When I come back to graph menu, I remark the new data (I changed) are not updated: I need to stop Cumulus MX , delete the database (cumulusmx.db) and restart Cumulus => After that , new data are in place . I remember that' was not the case before some versions of cumulus, and I know the data are first in the file, and after in the database.

My questions is :
- Is there a way to update monthlylog file without restart Cumulus MX and delete db ? (feature like Utils / reload dayfile)

Thank's for your help

Not currently, the recent data is now kept in the database and only appended to from the log files.

OK, thank's, then why it's possible to edit log file without update data ? I don't understand !

Because the recent data database may contain much more data than the log file. If you used 10 minute logging then there would be 10 recent data values for every log file entry.
