      Hi,

      Whenever I use the slider on Weather radar layer for example, to see the projected movement of precipitation for the next hour, I’d like to easily place the slider back to the most current view. To refresh it to the most current situation. There is no button that would do that, it seems.

      Any chance you could add it?

        @m-k-07e5e81f-0d33-4e0f-95f3-9d6c86e251df Hi, do you mean the button to basically refresh radar layer to the latest shot, when you have the app opened for some time?

          @Suty Hi, yes. Basically to reset the slider to the central position (where it shows the most current radar situation). This would apply to both app and the Web version of Windy, as even if you refresh the pags on Web version, ot doesn’t reset the slider.

            @m-k-07e5e81f-0d33-4e0f-95f3-9d6c86e251df I am afraid that this is not planned at all, I am sorry about that.

              @Suty Thanks for your reply. Please can you still consider adding such button? This is some basic functionality that is missing. It would not only apply to the Radar image but any other layers where slider is used as well!

                @m-k-07e5e81f-0d33-4e0f-95f3-9d6c86e251df I already discussed this with colleagues and it is not planned. However, you can still refresh the page, or click on our Windy logo to refresh the app.

                  @Suty Thanks for your feedback. Clicking on Windy logo does refresh the page but not the slider. The slider is not reset to the middle position as a result. Could you at least program it to do that?

                  Same would then apply to the mobile app, except that instead of tapping on the Windy logo (which is not present within the app) the slider would reset when tapping on the house (home) icon.

                        @m-k-07e5e81f-0d33-4e0f-95f3-9d6c86e251df Unfortunately, there is no positive result for this. It will stay like this for now. I am sorry about negative news for you.
