How to activate the arrows automatically?

Hello,

Everytime i analyze my games, I need to click on the switch on button to show the arrows. Same as the computer analysis. Is there anyway to make it automatic any of these two features?

Thank you Lichess best website ever <3
I don't think this is going to be an option for the analysis, I always assumed these were switches intentionally: when you ask for a computer analysis, lichess is giving those requests to people who volunteer their CPU for that: lichess.org/blog/WN-gLzAAAKlI89Xn/thousands-of-stockfish-analysers
If the analysis was there by default, the analysis would become too slow (too much work for too few volunteer-CPUs).

For the arrows, this is actually running in your browser (in part, see the link above for details). This is intentionally only enabled after a click too, and the reason is that people wanted to open multiple tabs with analysis windows but that was getting slow (local analysis loads a full copy of stockfish into your browser tab):

Note that you might be able to press the space bar to turn on the arrows in analysis, which might help for you.
