two different views on i-drive split screen?

BeeEmDubU · 06-17-2006, 10:54 AM

is it possible to have 2 different views on the i-drive split screen? as an example, can my main screen be perspective and the screen to the right be direction of travel?

when i change the screen to the right, it also changes the same screen to the same exact view, so i have two screens that look exactly the same.

can anyone help? thanks

what's the point then??? it is useless if the it looks exactly the same. very poor design IMO

I was able to do that while on ED with Europe nav disc, but havent figured out how to do it with US nav DVD now that I have the car back in the states

The 650 I drove did it?

Mine has 2 different views. I do it all ther time. Usually direction of travel on the left and arrow display on the right.

The point is you can choose to have the map in the assist window, and then you can see the map while being in, say, the entertainment screen.
Great design.
To show two different map views the system would have to stream to different streams of data off the DVD at the same time.

Read the question again. He wanted to different map views. Not arrow view.
