      Hello everyone, I am finding the new feature for Distance & Planning very confusing. I am noticing that when I plan a route, the wind information in the pop-up bar does not match the wind animation of the screen; one tells a direction and the other one tells a different wind direction. It doesn't even give you the option of boat speed against distance, so I have to move the time bar so I would know the wind information at that specific time / position. Can anyone help me with this please?

            Can you see that the wind arrows at the bottom do not match the wind animation on the screen? My question is which is the actual wind direction, the one on the screen or the one below?

                  I honestly prefer the old way. For me it was simple and worked perfect for me
