Slide-able instruments on Map

In the map view I have a mini EFIS box and a mini Profile box along with other instruments. It would help if the larger overlays like those could be individually slid out of the way to get a peek at what is underneath. One example would be like the simulator controls box. Another option would be to let them move for a moment then have them snap back to where they were. I know I can slide the whole map around but after the peeking is over, the map doesn't necessarily go back to where it was unless I had it centered before. And the Instrument Group, Customize option is a bit more stuff to do.

Thanks,

DJ

Re: Slide-able instruments on Map

What if when you touch the map, all the buttons and instruments go partly transparent? Or would that be too weird/distracting?

Re: Slide-able instruments on Map

DJ, The simulator controls can be slid around by dragging the top bar, or you can tap that bar 3 times and it'll disappear for 5 seconds (handy for screenshots too). The only thing that won't fade away when you pan the map, and can't be moved like the simulator controls, is the vertical profile instrument.
