petsi - Freeboard Signalk plugin question. What...

Freeboard Signalk plugin question. What means this two lines? I thought that there was Apparent and true wind but they are opposite. It happens in different positions..

They are apparent and true wind.
What values does the server's data browser show? Values will be in radians.

About the laylines. in dashT tactics plugin explain the problem of laylines.
1º Laylines are displayed until the direct route is faster than the laylines. This is calculated with the polars. you can see it in the tactics plugin doc. https://dashboard-tactics-pi.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tactics/tactics.html
2º I think that in our case the laylines should be shown when the route to the waypoint is upwind, not when the boat is upwind. Anyway, I'll give you an example later.

in the right example our vesses is downwind but the route is upwind and our laylines must be shown. in the left case direct route is faster than laylines.
