I apologise in advance as it seems that this must have been addressed here already, but I failed to find it searching.

I'd like to change the default Maxidot layout on my 2019 Octavia combi Scout to the layout in the attached photo.

How may I set that, either in the infotainment configuration settings, or using an OBDeleven (that I've ordered and is on its way)?

thanks!

 

That's not a maxidot, it's a virtual cluster or virtual cockpit 🙂

 

If you turn off personalisation via the headunit, it should remember it, or at least my car does...

😅 Heh, I'm a newbie, sorry...

Ok, virtual cockpit.

 

Erm, please forgive my further ignorance .. what does it mean, and how to do it, "turn off personalisation via the headunit"?

(Also, seems a bit counterintuitive that a personalised setting - "I like this virtual display" - would be better kept with "personalisation" turned off? Yeah, yeah, I know, I've been around software and systems entirely too long to actually expect anything to make sense...).

 

thanks!

Hi all, could someone please help me resolve my ignorance, and suggest how I might implement @langers2k's recommendation to "turn off personalization via the headunit"?

thanks,

Jay

 

On the headunit, settings > personalization > disable.

 

Works great if there is only one main driver, obviously if there are more then you might want to keep it enabled.

I finally tested this today, and it does keep the virtual cockpit display across turning the car off and back on again.

It really does suck that "personalization" being on causes the driver's personal setting to re-set at power off. Just makes no sense.

Thanks again,
