wlepse Report post Posted February 15, 2012 They removed the 3d album art? Not that it ever worked for me but I do think a lot of people like that feature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
choff1138 Report post Posted February 15, 2012 Glad to see that they are removing one of the outside temp readings. I have found that once you are into negative temps they vary by a degree. We figure one has a -0 figured into the code. Kind of funny in a way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

choff1138 Report post Posted February 15, 2012 My passenger will miss the outside temp display Yes, I would prefer they get rid of the one on the driver side, but it always seemed redundant to have two. I will just go back to having to ask what the temp is like I do in our truck, not a big deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Granted it is actually just a smidge to warm and so all of our snow is trying to melt and causing some major problems. Oh so much fun. Someday it will be time to move somewhere warm.... counting the days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davom97 Report post Posted February 16, 2012 I'm a bit surprised and disappointed that the home screen choices will go away. If I'm understanding this correctly, adding my own pictures (which I do now) will be pointless since the stuff on four quadrants will cover it up. Of all the things to change, that one seems odd to me. Still looking forward to it. Peace, DM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peace, DM Based on what I see on the first image, it looks like the pictures you add should still be visible to some degree, like the Ford logo they show on-screen.

The Outrage Report post Posted February 16, 2012 Historically, the carousel items have performed poorly within the interface. Even the simple accent lighting control module has sluggish performance and that doesn't even have a large volume of content to display. I also won't miss the ability to customize the home screen either. The blank alternative is useless, since it hides the entire interface, and the list is too complicated and condensed. The only home screen which makes sense, from a usability standpoint, is the default quadrant shortcut display. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
