The Wind infobox is behaving strangely #11

Which XCSoar version are you using when seeing the problem?

The last OpenSoar version

Steps to reproduce the behavior
I use the Larus simulation environment (flight_player), with which I can exactly repeat a flight.

Expected behavior, actual behavior
It's about the wind display in the info box at the bottom right.

What should it show in straight flight?

I see two possibilities:

the absolute wind direction, as in the map
the wind in relation to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft
It shows neither the one nor the other, see picture

What should it show in circling flight?

In my opinion, it only makes sense to display the absolute wind direction.

OpenSoar shows a wind arrow in the info box, which rotates continuously. This is probably not intended, see picture.
