<![CDATA[Lat, Lon setting not sticking]]>I prefer to have the setting "Show Lat, Lon Grid" always On.

However unlike the other settings that I use, the "Show Lat, Lon Grid" setting is always reset to off after I log off and later log on.

Yes, custom settings like that will prevent you from using Windy in the correct regime.

I have solved this issue.

What was causing the issue was that in the Firefox settings, I had selected the "Always use private browsing mode" option. After un checking that option the Windy "Lat Lon" setting is preserved when Firefox is closed and restarted.

Private browsing in Firefox deletes history, cookies and other site data when the session closes. Unlike some other options, the Always use private browsing mode doesn't allow the definition of exception to that rule.

Some more information:

I have, but rarely use the Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome browses. With these browsers, the Lat Lon setting is preserved even after re-booting. These browsers also log me in to Windy automatically even though I haven't saved my Windy password in the browser. I don't like that action. IMO if I haven't told the browser to save the Id and password it is because I don't want it to automatically log me on. Its no big deal for Windy, but I wouldn't want automatic log in to occur on sites with sensitive data.

I also got recently the Tusk browser. This browser works like Firefox. The setting is not preserved.

  • This glitch report applies to Web application used from Windows 11 with the Firefox browser.
    To demonstrate the glitch I have to log out and close Firefox. If I log out, close the tab and restart Windy without also closing Firefox the setting is preserved.

  • I primarily access Windy via Windows, but also have the Windy Android app on my phone. The setting seems to be preserved in the Android app.
