Moving the current position?? (on smartphone)

[dynamo]

Hi,

I'm having a go with the smartphone beta which is currently available from the mapopolis website.

It connects fine with my DConnex DC-230 BT gps reciever and has so far worked seemlessly to give me navigation.

My only gripe is that when you're driving, because the current position is in the centre of the screen, it reveals little about the streets ahead. I have to keep pressing 0 to remove the direction indicator so i can see a 'fuller' map. The distance indicator is good when on a dual carriage way for example, but on roads with lots of side streets looking at the map is more informative.

So my question is: Can the current (gps) position be moved lower on the screen so i can see more of the roads ahead (instead of half the screen showing where i've just been)?

If not then i'll add it to the mapopolis wishlist thread!

Cheers,

dynamo

Nevermind, I found an option for it

If anyone else what's this enabled check the "Center view forward" box under GPS Settings.
