Default 2013 A7 Driver Information System Question

Kind of a weird question, but I can't seem to figure it out, I really like having the electronic compass displayed on my DIS. For the life of me I can't figure out how to have the compass be default when starting up the car. I currently have to switch the tabs to get it to display, I'm also pretty sure at some point it was the default when I started the car. Thanks for any help.

I have always seen the first tab (speedometer than you choose others like cruise control, trip computer, etc) by default, sometimes like when your service is due the second tab goes briefly and then goes back to the first tab, mine is 2012 and you should have a newer MMI version software but in mine is like that.

Is there any way to make it to default to the Nav tab!

I would also like the electronic compass as the default, unfortunately there is no way to do this.
