Speed camera no countdown on CarPlay?

Must admit I'm new to Scenic.

Should speed camera warnings count down the number of yards?
Today I got warnings but they stayed at an 800 yard warning.

Yes. It should count down. I’ll have a look at it. Could you tell me approx location of the speed cam?

Hi Guido

Sent you an email with the locations and screenshots.

Let me know if you need any further info........

If anyone is UK based this map gives the camera locations.

Thanks Phil,

I've taken a look but don't see anything out of the ordinary with these cameras. Perhaps the only thing is that they are relatively close together. Perhaps one is interfering with the distance countdown of the other. I'll have a more detailed look at the code in the coming week.

Thanks for the additional info Phil.

Best regards,
Guido

Still only getting the 550 yard warning then the flag goes off when I pass the camera.
Will try with my iPhone only to see if its a carplay only issue...

Apple CarPlay currently has a bug where elements created with SwiftUI (the user interface language) don’t update. The distance to speed camera is one of those elements, so I suspect this is the reason.

In Scenic 4 (will be released in October), I will create this element with the old UIKit framework to work around this Apple bug.
