For example, when I initially go into the default map display the function bar is docked fully to the left. But click on a control button, for example to select one or other of the optional map views and the visible map shrinks to accomodate the fuction bar that has moved over towards the right (but still left of centre) and the selector menu gizmo. One the new selecton is complete no amount of clicking, selecting options or even swearing at the screen will move the control back to the extreme left. Having said that, it does sometime go back eventually but I have no idea what the trigger was and certainly I can't replicate it. Any ideas?
You move the iDrive controller to the right, to the 3:00 position (not spin clockwise, push right till you feel the click). That enlarges the map view and tucks the function bar back flush left.
