iGo - How to keep map onscreen when driving, please?
Posted: Tue Mar 15, 2016 4:01 pm
Hi
I really like the 'iGo' software and would like to continue using it as my main satellite navigation app, **BUT** at the moment, soon after the first instruction has been completed, e.g. a turn left or right etc, the map display is replaced by a virtually black screen with the current speed displayed in the middle, a small graphic of the next turn in the top left corner and things like start time, current time, and the distance to go at the bottom of the screen. If I tap anywhere on the screen, the map display returns, but only for a few seconds, before going back to the previous screen! Is this what is known as the 'screensaver'? If so, there is a software bug, as I have that disabled in the 'iGo' software.
If it is not the 'screensaver', how can I keep the map display on permanently whilst driving, please?
If I don't have a route configured, the map display will remain on the screen all the time!
Is there a detailed 'Instruction Manual' for the 'iGo' software available as a 'pdf' download, please?
If not, can you please supply a detailed description of what the following options are that can be found under 'UI Labs' menu as follows:-
Skip Navigation Menu
Equaliser
Desaturated Preview Map
Cockpit Type
Linear Compass
Road Blocking
Backlight Details
Save NMEA
Advanced Speed Limit
Auto Close Highway Panel
Show Grand Compass on Map
Many thanks, and look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Graham
