[Suggestion] Live / Current-time access button
-
Hello,
It seems to me on the "Weather Radar" layer, that the live lightning are only displayed if the cursor is positioned completely to the right. Wouldn't a button be more convenient to go directly to the last data and always have the last update instead of dragging the cursor manually?
The same type of button could also be used when viewing forecasts over several days. A quick return to the current local time of the forecast :
Sorry if my English is not perfect. ! :)

Hello @petra-pik ! Thank you for your response.
There is no problem when I refresh the page, I get to the most recent data.
But if I look at some forecasts, I find it more "ergonomic" to have a button rather than having to refresh the whole page to return quickly and precisely to the live/most recent weather.

@Nyxtorm I see what do you mean now :) we'll definitely consider it.

@petra.pik Any further on this? I'd also like a "jump to live" button. Less desirable, but also workable, would be having the playback controls have a "stop at end" option; then I could drag 10 minutes into the past, hit play, and know that the playhead has stopped at the "live"/"latest" position.
In case it helps you to know why I care: in the afternoons leading up to outdoor sports, living near mountains, I watch the weather radar obsessively throughout the afternoon trying to predict when it might be safe to go out, how likely it will be that we need to call off games. I occasionally drag the playhead into the future to gauge the speed of the storms, and then need to futz around to try and get it back to "live" mode.

@Phrogz No, this is not planned at all, I am sorry about it.
