      For many years, I've begged and pleaded Windy for the capability to plot 500mb geopotential height contours on to the current satellite image (loop). This is one of the best visuals to explain a weather pattern to non-scientists.

      Windy currently has 500mb heights and satellite imagery, just not the capability to view them at the same time. When geopotential height is toggled on while viewing the satellite loop, it only allows surface level heights.

      1. Please allow the altitude slider to plot pressure and geopotential height WHILE viewing satellite image/loop.

      2. Please allow a line thickness control for contour lines in set-up menu. Currently, contour lines can be so thin it is difficult to see. This is especially true when projecting Windy image onto a large screen.
