CoPilot 8 Clearturn Timeout (wm)

Here's a quick tip to change the time that the clearturn stays on the screen.

Edit \Program Files\CoPilot\user.cfg

Under [User Settings] add or change the following values. (Keep the fields in alphabetical order).

"ClearTurnViewDistance"=20
"ClearTurnViewDistIndex"=9
"ClearTurnViewHideDistance"=15
"ClearTurnViewHideDistIndex"=3

Here the clearturn screen appears at 20 tenths of a mile (2 miles) and clears at 15 tenths of a mile (1.5) miles before the junction. So is visible for about 30 seconds on a motorway and clears 90 seconds before the junction giving you time to view the next part of the route.

Thanks for the tips!!! Did you see anything in the user.cfg file that will help us set the time for the automatic day/night map switch? Now that NA is on DST, my freaking CP8 keeps switching to night map when the sun is still 30+ degrees above the horizon!!!!!

Would you mind spelling it out a bit clearer for an oldie...where are these settings you refer too ? Thanks.

Thanks for that. The only user.cfg I have in the CP program folder is assigned to TomTom, (I'm also running TT7) so I assume that it's not possible to make the changes ?
ps I also have Kilmist registry installed as well if I could get into it that way ?
