OK, more speculation about how this works. Looking at the code.

In =6.8, if wind is set to Manual (not Auto), and External wind is present then External is used. If you then set wind manually, that overrides the External wind.

In the Modal, once you select wind manually, a "Clear" button appears (it is not there before). Select 'Clear' once you are done with the Manual wind and it goes back to using External (if present).

Hope that's how it is.

I asked that question yesterday on the XCSoar forums and Max (one of the main developers) replied.

Question:
Is the Manual option the same as disabled if an external wind source is available?

Max's answer:
Yes. Good commit message, but bad naming in user interface.
