I-drive ?s: Rear camera + overhead PDC / Full screen nav

Has anyone figured out if it is possible to have 1 window with the rear camera and 1 with the Park Distance Control overhead view at the same time.

Camera is great but it would be cool to have both since PDC covers the front of the x5 too.

Also, is it possible for Nav to fill the whole screen (get rid of the assist window and just have a full screen map.

Thanks

I do not think it is possible to have both. You can have it show reference marks, like the green-yellow-red marks.
Not sure about full screen navi.

Don't know the answer to your PDC question but you can't have the full screen nav. I'd be happy if you could have nav on the left as usual and the sat radio on the right, but that's obviously too much to ask

wouldn't it have been common sense to allow both PDC and rear-view camera to operate at the same time? so you can keep track of surrounding objects...

They still both operate. The PDC still beeps.

That's what I feared. Maybe these will be addressed via updates but it seems pretty lame that they aren't allowing these combination.

Why on earth you would not enable full screen nav totally escapes me.

PDC would be nice to have a visual rep of what is infront although the beeps certainly are fine. Not a major issue but just seems like a silly restriction,
