How to make the wind layer open automatically

[Gardenias-123]

In your example, the wind layer needs to be opened by selecting the checkbox. Is there any way to open it automatically? I know this is a low-level question, but I really don't know how to implement this feature.

Hi,

Firstly - I strongly suggest you consider using the leaflet-velocity plugin, which is much more flexible and better supported (your use-case is a good example - the leaflet-velocity layer has the benefit of being added/removed from map in the same way as any other leaflet layer).

So, secondly (for a leaflet-velocity layer) - you simply need to add the layer to the map, e.g.

// make a map
const map = L.map('map');

// make a layer
var velocityLayer = L.velocityLayer(myParams);

// add layer to map
velocityLayer.addTo(map);

Thank you for your proposal, it is very helpful to me.
