iDrive - 'R' gear question

Being a new F10 owner and having a small garage will be curved driveway, my biggest challenge is backing out everyday at 5.45 AM (time I have to leave for work, accounting for NYC traffic).

My question is; when I put my car in "Reverse gear", can the iDrive screen split into reverse camera and a 360/ surround / top view on the same screen?

I end up toggling between the two halfway down the driveway (just before it curves out) in an effort to avoid hitting my garbage cans.

I am not sure if this is possible via a setting in iDrive, through coding or only in an Porsche (Mrs. pTron's ride)?

Not possible through iDrive.

Not possible through coding that I have seen. I have turned on a disabled curb detection feature but it although the indicators flicker I've not found any use for it and it just clutters the display.

I just toggle between the top view and rear view with a single push of the idrive controller, there is lag in switching views but you can toggle back and forth as much as you need to.

Would you mind posting a pic of curb detection? I’ve never heard of that
