inconsistancy map-airgram in the planification feature
-
Dear dev team
First of all thanks much for the planification feature directly available without plugin, its very cool !
However seems to me that there are inconsistancies in the wind
When i place myself at a certain moment of the planned trip on the timeline, sometimes its not coherent between the wind displayed on the map, and the one we displayed in the airgram or boat, or so. (sometimes it is coherent). I make sure altitude is choosen at sea level.
This is a quite common situation I was able to observe quite frequently.
is there something I did not unstand or is there a bug? find below a screenshot with such a situation. thanks!

Your so-called bug comes because in “Plus d’options“ you should choose “North up”. Your current setting is “Left to right” which means that you have to imagine your boat sailing from left to right of your screen.

And
https://community.windy.com/topic/29149/wind-direction-planning-pannel-vs-map?=1702020848484In the latest versions of the Route planer on browser version on desktop, I thought the default setting of the wind / wave reference direction was North up, but apparently it is Left to right ?!

thanks so much, @idefix37, you are right!
yes by defaut it's left to right, which is rather counter intuitiv,
however its interesting to have that option (left to right) that allows to see in a snap the wind angle along the trip.
