Compass

Hi,

Have been thoroughly enjoying my M340 & the neat little "extras" that are available through coding, having been coding both my retired F30 & my current car.

My F30 had a built in compass that was displayed digitally in rearview mirror -- call me a dinosaur, but I found it quite useful.

I found a widget on iDrive that looks like a compass, but is actually a route preview.

Is there a setting or some coding to enable display of compass either in iDrive or Instrument cluster??

Appreciate the assistance!

I've missed the formal compass as well but it appears that the "route preview" widget serves the purpose just fine.; I've not been able to actually get it to preview a route😱. You can also use the current position widget if it's compressed to a quarter screen size.
