Thanks, Ivo.

I did stumble across these shortcuts a little while ago and have found them very useful.

Is it possible to add an additional keyboard shortcut that alternates between the available computer models?

This would be super useful when making quick model comparisons of particular weather features.

Thanks.

I'd love to have +/-24h shortcuts (like CTRL+), and model change shortcuts.

@ivo
Thank you!

Btw, I think you have to change the wx radar symbol because is the same with preci. type symbol (an umbrella!).
How do you like something like this?

On Twitter, "?" brings up a list of keyboard shortcuts. Saves a lot of bytes,

There's also - and + (or =) to zoom the map.

Thanks for information!.

Unrelated to adding a hotkey, I'd like for windy to not hijack windows hotkeys Ctrl-Tab and Shift-Ctrl-Tab. Windy unnecessarily uses those keys to duplicate the function of the plain-old Tab key, and I see no option to disable that. (I need those keys to switch tabs while in full-screen mode.)

@so-bad Thank you, we will consider this.

Thanks for the keyboard shortcuts :)

In addition to left and right, could we also have the option to jump bigger steps with different keys please? Eg:

< > 1 hour
Left Right 3 hours
PgUp PgDown 12 hours

(Use whichever keys you like, not too fussed about that.)

When you go Premium, left and right only increments by 1 hour so you find yourself RSI-inducingly stabbing away at the keyboard as it slowly transitions (especially overnight when you're usually less interested). We could really do with another set of keys for 3 / 6 / 12 hours.
