what nav scale/on board computer settings do you use?
 
Just out of curiosity, I was wondering what settings most of you guys use on your nav systems? what scale/map view/split screen/full/etc do you guys like and why?

I can't decide whether I like full or split screen, and whether I like it at 400 feet or further out so I figured i'd make this unofficial poll of what the various settings everyone likes and why to help decide!

I use split screeen and 125 yds locally and 250 yds highway (I did the upgrade, downgrade, upgrade thing to avoid the "accept" screen).

I typically drive with it on 2.5 miles or 5 miles - always in split-screen mode

I use split screen, because I like the visual command as well as the voice, as for scale I tend to use 250yds but I like the quick change to see what route it is giving me and see if I need to change the route selection option.

Since i have the small screen 4:3 IN city at 400ft in highway at 800ft and long trips the next scale up

Splitscreen, Perspective view and 200m.

BMWLOVER 06-19-2008 07:08 PM

I use split screen and 500m perspective view.

450@ perspective here if its just for viewing. Otherwise, 250, split and normal view with visible street names.

How do I get the perspective view??

Bimmer360 06-24-2008 10:53 PM

from Nav mode, push select button -> Travel Direction -> Perspective. If not enabled. Go to SET and hold the select button for 10 seconds until the special menu shows. Got to Enable Perspective and do the first step.
