Default model question
-
I switch between models quite often as I'm sure many people do. If I click the map for a point forecast when viewing the map using a model that is different from my default (in 'settings for point fcst' menu), it always goes back to the default model. This works as I expect.
I purposefully turned that feature off in the settings hoping that it would keep the map forecast and point forecast model consistent. Unfortunately, the behavior stays the same, except the default seems to be set to ECMWF. Is there a way to get the behavior I desire?

Messing with it a little more, it doesn't always choose the ECMWF as the default, it chooses the last model that was used for pulling a point forecast.
An example: I view a point forecast with the GFS, then close the point forecast and change model (in map mode) to view the ECMWF map. If I click a location to pull another point forecast, it goes back to a GFS point forecast instead of the expected ECMWF.

@pgilbrea I think you mentioned more scenarios to be honest and I am not sure how to help now. But basically the detail should display the model from the map, if you don't use the default selection in the forecast detail. Also there are some limits of this, since some models don't have the point forecast data, necessary for providing the detail data.

@Suty Try the example I gave. I suspect it's a bug.

Hi @pgilbrea, may I ask you how do you turn off that "feature" in the settings - User Settings in the profile, or in 'settings for point fcst' menu? I am interested in testing it but do not know how to do it. Thank you.

@pgilbrea I think this all depends on the new setup we offer at the bottom of the forecast detail.
What do you have set here?
