New graphics are not good
-
The new graphics for tides, currents are rude to the eyes: like Pop art. Please revert. The current info is too abbreviated

Sorrry, was in a rush to get in the water. I meant the data chart with the broad white border surrounding!
![B98395EE-7193-4587-97CC-0DB011276378.png]With respect to the data, I like to know the times and rate of at least one prior set of current/tide because the volume of water that has moved affects the transitional slacks at different locations differently.
-
@swimmingbear7 If you talk about these colors, they are still same, there are no visual changes made.
-
@Ondřej-Šutera isn’t the surrounding white border a change? The contrast to the main data field is harsh like reflected glare
-
@swimmingbear7 Oh yes, you are right that the border around the data is different now. I thought you mean the combination of colors of main data.
-
@Ondřej-Šutera I also just realized what has changed on the tide forecasts for tide height and current spreeds. The data that appears in an upper screen banner for a cross hair on tidal station disappears too rapidly for me to read and digest and is cumbersome to bring back. When I touch open the tidal station the recent past data and next few hours data from the banner is missing. This data used to appear and remain onscreen in the station data charts. This is frustrating. I understand many of your users are from more screen trained generations. This has the unfortunate feeling of a video game with things appearing and disappearing by the apps programming. At 70 yrs, I need data that i can study and consider. Thanks for your understanding.
I just went back to the screens. There is ~10 hrs of relevant data missing from the front end times on the station chart. That is the data that appears and disappears in the banner. The text size in the banner is much smaller than the chart and also gives difficulty in reading it under pressure of disappearing. Please, at least include all the data back in the stable onscreen chart as it was before: all the data in one place, not toggling back and forth. I choose my target times swimmming in the water with due consideration to the water exchanges before and after. Now I am forced to toggle screens back and forth multiple times.
I utilize this site to decide and settle my plans and like the confidence that results. It actually had been a pleasure to use. This new experience is quite the opposite; frustrating, unsettling and somewhat confusing. I am finding it quite difficult to formulate my plans now

@swimmingbear7
I’m not sure to answer all your concerns in your long post.
I understand you would like to have the data shown and kept at screen instead of disappearing rapidly.
Now in Settings you can set their display duration :

@idefix37
That’s good to know and certainly better than no control. However, in my experience data tables are most useful when the related data are present at the same time on the same table. In a unified presentation it is possible to scan for relevant patterns. Can’t you also include the data from the abbreviated weather picker version back into the tidal station tables. Alternatively, leave the weatherpicker banner display on the screen and open the station table below it so that both display simultaneously. -
@swimmingbear7 Hi, I am not sure if I understand this, because you can click on the banner, which appears after you located the picker on the tide point. Then you can easily check the whole table about tides.

The Data on the Banner
IS MISSING ON THE CHART THAT OPENS NEXT
In this case it represents changing current speeds between 14:40 and 23:06.
All this data should be visible on the same one screen….
Just as it was until a few days ago…
Having it split apart on separate screens is awkward and creates a fumbling problem where one did not exist before.This is the single most important function for me on your app.

@swimmingbear7 Okay, thank you for further explanation of what you mean exactly. I will discuss it with colleagues and we will consider changes. Thank you for your patience.
