Maps Screen View bug

Hi I’m new here.

I have a 2017 PX2 Wildtrak in NZ.

I have used Cyanlabs to update from 3.0 to 3.4.

All is working fine but the bug I’m experiencing is with maps screen view setting.

We get the option of full screen, split screen or motorway exits.

I like to keep it on full screen so I can use only the whole map and see the turns that way but it defaults to the split view which shows me the map then half of the screen is a diagram of the intersection and the turn.

On 3.0 I could turn this off but with 3.4 I can turn full screen view only on and it last for one turn only before the split screen comes back on.

How can I fix this bug?

I don't have this

Can you post a pic of the split screen view, please…

split screen here

Full screen here

When a route is active, you can often switch between full-screen, split-screen with motorway exit details, or split-screen with a turn list by tapping the map icon or accessing it from a menu, notes Ford UK.

I understand that but as I’ve clearly explained the big above mine is stuck on the split view. I may choose full screen but upon the next turn in navigation the split view is magically back.

I can’t seem to have full screen as the split with the intersection view is coming back as default.

If anyone can help fix this bug that has come through the cyanlabs process that would be greatly appreciated.

From the research I have found this is the default behavior for Sync 3 to show the next intersection and then go back to full screen after hte intersection has passed. If you have the turn by turn in the IPC, then the turn instructions are duplicated there.

Keep in mind that the nav and maps system in Sync 3.0 is different than Sync 3.4, so options available may not translate.

This is not caused by using Cyanlabs, to be clear. All of the files used here are Ford official released files available on public facing Ford IVSU servers.

Ah ok very good!

So it’s not a big of sorts? As I remember on 3.0 if I press full screen it stays full screen all the time.

3.4 I press full screen and the split screen comes back automatically on the next turn.

Is there a way to turn that behaviour off so it shows only full map without the intersection view on split screen?

If you find a way let us know because I’d rather not have it either…!

Cool.

Thank you for your help and reassurance with this.

I did consult chat GPT and it mentioned there could well be some forscan code that removes this. Have you tried this or looked into this at all? If it works or not.

This is the last resource I would trust with this.

It has been accurate with me so far but I’m not using it for this ‘issue’.

It’s a shame they didn’t keep the setting for choosing which navigation view you want. 3.0 had it and it worked well.

Oh well.

Sync 2 had it also.

Very good to know that it’s not actually a bug then.

Thanks guys for your clarity and help.
