<![CDATA[How to prevent zoom out when clicking on "Forecast for this location"?]]>Steps to reproduce:

  • Zoom in reasonably far
  • Right click on the map and choose "Forecast for this location"
  • Observe that, as well as showing the forecast for the chosen location, the map zooms out very very far

How can I prevent the zoom out?

The reason I want this feature is that here in Switzerland the forecast can be very different from one valley to another. I want to use Windy to look at the forecasts in neighbouring valleys. The automatic zoom out means that I lose my place in the map, and have to manually zoom in again to find it, which is annoying.

Many thanks for this amazing resource!

Is there any way to get a setting to turn this off?

The frequent zoom-outs for a variety of actions are really really annoying!
