Default 2018 Q5 - Setting the default panel on dashboard screen

Hi folks - When I turn on my car, the drivers dashboard screen defaults to a time and date panel. I like it on the 'Next Song' panel and so I hit the right arrow to select it. However, I'm wondering if there is a way to make the car default to that panel when I start her up? Any ideas? Have I missed something?

Thanks!
Rich

if i recall correctly a song needs to play first to get the screen and allow you to press next. time and date will show if no song data is available/playing

The VC defaults to the first screen every time you start the car (IIRC). I just select my preferred view every time and it has become second nature and it doesn’t bother me. Takes two seconds at most.
