5.2 Map settings
You can set a few parameters determining the appearance of the maps in V7
Navigation.
5.2.1 Daylight / Night color profile
V7 Navigation comes with different color schemes for both daylight and night use.
There is always one selected daytime scheme and one selected night-time scheme.
V7 Navigation uses these when switching from day to night and back.
Tap the appropriate button and select a new scheme from the list.
5.2.2 Alternative Road Names
Some highways have an international name or number for foreign travelers. You can
decide whether to show only the local name or both.
5.2.3 Show Street Labels
You can set whether or not to see the names of the streets and the POI icons on the
map when driving. Based on the current zoom and tilt levels, street names are
displayed either aligned with the street or on signposts stuck into the streets (Page
17). If you switch these signs on, it will be easier to recognize your location on the
map, if you turn them off, it will be easier to see the road geometry.
Note: You can only disable street names and POI icons if V7 Navigation follows your
position. As soon as you move the map and Lock-to-Position (Page 28) is disabled,
street names and icons become visible again. Tap View Hold to re-enable Lock-to-
Position and have the labels and icons disappear again.
5.2.4 Textured Polygons
Enable textured polygons, and have rivers, lakes, forests and other large objects
displayed in a more realistic and attractive way on the map.
Disabling it will lead to uniform areas but better performance. See Page 18.
