      I know the weather models do not deliver an unlimited resolution in regard to height levels, but afaik Icon-D2 offers more than what is shown in windy interface. This limits the information one can draw out of the interface and makes the soundings chunky when zooming in.
      Would it be possible to show all available height levels (e.g. as an advanced option) for those interested?

        Hi @jupaketto,
        to my knowledge, icon-d2 offers following pressure levels (in hPa): 200, 250, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 850, 950, 975 and 1000. These are levels that we display (I marked levels that are currently being inter/extrapolated): 150, 200, 250, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 850, 900, 925 and 950.

        So the only levels that are not displayed are 975hPa and 1000hPa. Is that what you mean? It is true that icon-d2 65 vertical model levels but these are not pressure levels. These (to my understanding) are not very useful for weather analysis.

          @Filip_K yes, IT would alteady be cool If the 975 and 1000hPa levels we're accessible in the height slider and the progtemp.
          After all we move mostly in the lower atmosphere and there are large gaps now.
