      ![Hi, where I live there are often 2 swells from the same direction and it is difficult to see the different size swells and periods as they overlap. Unfortunately I cannot attach the screenshot. Is there another way the info could be displayed. Maybe a line graph breakdown similar to what they have on surfline? Again I can’t attach the surfline screenshot. Maybe you could email me and I can send you the two screenshots. Thanks

        You probably mean that the arrows showing swell and swell 2 are sometime overlapping. Previously this was solved by changing the visible arrow with the hidden one every 3 or 5s.

        EDIT: Sorry I confuse with wind arrows shown with the different models. They change that way to solve overlapping.
        @Korina Could this be applied also to swell arrows ? (Swell, swell2, wind).

                @idefix37 last pic is from surfline. I like your setup with the arrows however the setup with the line graph you can easily analyse 24hrs quickly

                  Same in Windy if you switch to 3h steps instead of 1h.

                    @idefix37 thanks yeah but not the breakdown of swell size for the different period swells. Buoyweather has a swell breakdown table which I have found to be really good but only at 6 hour increments.
