Unable to use the weather picker
-
Previously, right-clicking anywhere on the map would show the 'Show Weather Picker' option, but it no longer appears, and I can't find a way to enable the weather picker.

I have the same problem, cannot get weather picker when I right click.

Hello,
i also noticed the change on how to show the weather picker.
Now you have to (left-)klick into the map to show the picker. This only works, while no forecast ist displayed.Please bring back the picker in the context-menu. I, as a PG-Pilot use ist all the time to double check Wind in different height-layers while parallel displaying the forecast.
Thanks for your efforts, Windy-Team!

@Chris-Chapel @数荷电力 Hello, the picker can be initiated by the standard left click on the map outside city labels.
-
@michihoemer Okay, I will discuss this with colleagues.

@Suty Hi Suty,
I work in power analysis. We mainly need to check weather data directly on city areas while viewing forecasts.Could you please bring back the right-click context menu for the weather picker as before?Also, the suggested left-click outside city labels doesn't work reliably — the picker often fails to appear.
Thank you very much for your help.

@Suty Please give me back the Weather Picker in the context
(Right click) menu - the left click is not working for me. -
@Suty Hey Suty, just fyi, the "left click" function will not work in the Distance and Planning mode either. Doing so only inserts another waypoint in lieu of the weather picker, when a route is displayed. Thanks for taking a look.

I have the same problem. This new "feature" is a seriously bad idea !!! I look at the weather on paragliding sites and need details such as wind direction and strength at elevation that the weather picker gives me. Of course as soon as I try to click on the exact location I want the weather picker will not work. Please reinstate the previous right mouse click system ASAP !!!

Unable to use the weather picker and view the forecast at the same time as was possible before. If you left click to see the forecast, the weather picker disappears, so you cant see detail in layers like toggling between different airspaces. If you click the down arrow on the weather picker, the forecast disappears.

Hello, I will have further info next Tuesday. Hopefully, our team will decide to provide this again.

@Suty Thank you for your help and for looking into this matter for us. We look forward to your update next Tuesday.

Hello, I have an update for you. We decided to get this back in our next version.
Thank you for your patience.

@Suty How soon?

The only reason I use Windy is for the Weather Picker so I can see what % of high, low or medium clouds are projected for a given date and time. It seems that option no longer is available? Left click anywhere on the map just moves the pin from my targeted spot to where I left click. Please bring back the weather picker!

@GeorgiaFlash It will be back in the next version, which should be out in two weeks.
