      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!

        I second this. The frequent zoom-outs for a variety of actions are really really annoying!

          The frequent zooming out is by far the most annoying feature of Windy. Is there any way to get a setting to turn this off?

              @jneilson Hello, could you please enclose a video? The zoom does not change when you click on "Forecast for this location".

                On latest public beta version, when clicking "Forecast for this location", map scale doesn't change; map just moves in the window at same scale, in order to get selected position on the center of the map (which is a pretty standard behavior on web map applications).

                ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
