@peterh337 A switch to "classic UI" or icons was fine. (Expert-mode?) Old code was fine, no need to delete.
Or open altitude slider without all the menu?
Or click on icon to go, wait on icon to open submenu?
In the quickmenu is the switch off to on , could also be a on to off for clean map?

@Suty 🌱🪲🐞🐝 Safe the bugs! Animations had ~60m views a week ago, now it´s 64.9m.
There are >100k users You have not noticed. Each other weather channel would be proud for that resonance. It´s a node of science gone. 🌪

@Claudio-Grego It´s the same color per windspeed as in the maps.

@Suty The icons are associated with the layer´s color schemes, but there are also color-blind users, others have changed them.

@idefix37 Now I have an new bookmark for firefox. :)

Here some data can be reviewed up to two weeks. But it´s the recorded model´s forecast data, not necessarily confirmed by the real/measured, and not the sum of a timeframe.

@forsbergdk There are archives for radar & satellite only.

@Suty For further confusion the new pin is added at the top, how possible was to drag & drop?

@Ocean-Skipper
❤ Something works, at least on desktop: https://i.windy.com/a/548xr/5mo7xh.mp4
But I miss the option "Save at home only" and can´t delete it from windy page. :/
Maybe You need a 3rd party screen-recorder?

For me it works fine with Andro 14 (Samsung S7), but not with 8.1 (S. A7).
Tried 42.5.5 and Browser (DuckDuckGo). Only grey map, no time-bar.

@Takashi-Mori No, sorry, the order is spooky. Now I have clouds (base above top) and wind/gust bubbles mixed and can´t seperate them, Their order in the folder seems to have priority or if it already had a place in the column?

@Ocean-Skipper said in New version is terrible:

... but please find a solution in which you can download a defined region over a 3 or 5 day preview. That would be very helpful for trip planning. Thanks

🛰🗺 There´s another complication beyond the satellite-data.
Length of equator = 40000 km, tropics = 36.800 km, polar circles = 16.000 km,
Cylindrical projection needs some stretching towards the poles. So dimensions of weathersystems get distorted, too.
The sharpness is somehow like optical zoom vs digital zoom.

@Ken Here it also happened once or twice per week. Closing and reopening the browser usually helped. (Whenever I do a wrong mouseclick or fail to adjust something in the workflow, I restart the browser. Also when starting another animation.)
Especially the 3D animations are a bit tricky.

How about a screensaver version?
Bubbles could be fish-shaped, swimming around, follow particle animation or circle around isolines...
A game for kids as an approach to meteorology....
