XCSoar and Wind

If Manual means external than those who use external wind can no longer set it manually. This is a problem since occasionally you want to manually enter expected wind instead of current wind to get realistic final glide calculation when you know the wind at lower altitude is different. I don't understand why not simply add "external" option. Ramy My understanding is that even when there was an explicit external option, if it was selected, and there was external wind present, then the manual wind was overridden by it at all times. So, pre 6.8, with external wind you do not have manual wind. Seems all they did with this change is to make the UI more consistent with the implemented logic. David
