      Dear developers,

      thank you very much for this great app and the constant further development. It would be great if there was an option to disable particel animation and still get a wind direction shown (e.g. via static arrows). Currently only the wind force is visible via the colors but not the wind direction.

      This is especially important for laptops or mobile phones to save energy. The particle animation needs a lot of performance and doesn't always run smoothly (samsung s8, iMac Safari -- latest operating system).

      Many thanks and greetings

        Not a bug.

        The performance is proportional to the number of particles being displayed and their length. You can get better graphics performance and efficiency via doing the following and still see the wind direction indications:
