I just loaded one of my recipes into the "planned" folder, then decided to make a minor tweak to the planned recipe based on inventory I had in stock. I just noticed that this made the change to the original recipe as well. Would it be possible to "unlink" the planned recipe from the original recipe (or make this optional) so that changes to a planned recipe wouldn't automatically update the original file?
I have some regular recipes that I like to keep in my primary recipe files. But tonight I was short by a couple of grams on one hop. So I noted the change in the "planned" recipe when I was pulling my ingredients. I don't want to change my "stock" recipe, as that is a tried and true recipe. I know that I could have gone back and created a copy of the recipe, but it seems like an unnecessary extra step.
Also, it would be nice if I could then drag the "planned" recipe out of the "planned" folder and into one of my various "sessions" folders. That would make it easier to handle my recipe/session information. Again, I could make a copy of the recipe, and move it, but it would be easier to handle if adding the recipe to "planned" would make a copy automatically, which I could then move to another folder after I modified inventory. Does this make sense?
EDIT: Ok, I just created a sessions folder, then "saved as" a copy of the recipe into the newly created sessions folder. I then edited the original recipe back to my original hop additions, and find that it ALSO updated the copy of the recipe that I put into my "sessions" folder. I don't know if this is a bug or intended behavior. But if it is the intended behavior, how am I correctly supposed to handle saving sessions?
