How much smaller should it be? (in terms of percentage)

MAN... fcking ACE!

CDR/MCStoo, any way to make a "large mode" and a "smaller mode" basically, large mode would hide all the GPS stuff, leaving only the map and perhaps the music info from the frontend, and then regular mode would be what you have...

Maybe even small/med/large

small: split screen w/ all audio controls
medium: what you have now, or maybe just GPS infos
large: just map, nothing else...

I dont think this will work though because of the need to change both FD and RR skins... MCStoo, for the RR version of ConsoleRangeRover , can you consider doing the FD skin on road runner itself, and map all buttons to the SDK? Then we will be able to have smaller or larger views... I believe you can switch RR skins with the same app embedded in differnt sizes (RR will just resize to fit the new skin)

suggestion for this skin, cant you put the freedrive thing somewhere else and remove that last bar? Space is really at a premium on 7" screens... especially top and bottom space... maybe even consider relocating the buttons to the sides so the map is roughly square?

The bar that says "FreeDrive" changes to give you directions when you're navigating; e.g. "Turn Left onto M60 in 200 yds"

You can change FD skins within the FD application

Oh, is it impossible now to have that just popup when you are navigating? like original destinator style?

Screen area is at such a premium in the 7" monitors that it doesnt seem sensible to have that there all of the time... especially since most of us only use navigate feature once in a while...
