Webcam, Map Zooms in and out when selecting Cam

dmdr

How do you stop the map from zooming in and out when selecting a camera?

Hi @dmdr, webcams zoom in automatically when you select one, it is not possible to customize it. However, thank you for your feedback, we will consider it.

Hi,Petra,
If I zoom into the map and click on a webcam, It zooms out.
This has only just started happening.

@dmdr, would you upload a screen recording? When I check webcams, it doesn't zoom out for me. Not in the application nor in a desktop version.

dmdr

It won't let me attache the screen recording, Do you have an email?

You requested a screen recording and not an image.

Also it won't let me attach a screen shot anyway.

Hi,

I also have the same problem on both Firefox and Chromium (see below). Mobile App is not affected.
I just sent a screen capture to support@windy.com. It seems like I lack the permission to upload files here.

Thanks! Tobias

@dmdr @macro8 Hello, could you please try to upload video on Giphy.com or Imgur.com, if you are unable to upload it here? We would appreciate more details in order to solve this.

@macro8 @dmdr @idefix37 Hello, thank you for your reports, I have informed our development team and we will look into this.

@korina I am experiencing the same horrible behavior. I zoom-in to see the cameras in my area, then I click and it zooms out to the entire western US. This is super annoying and makes use of webcam feature nearly unusable. Any insight on when this will be fixed?

@korina maybe I spoke too soon; I reloaded my session and now no zoom issues. I had to reload because weather radar was glitching

@rjarant Please let us know if you experience this again.
