2021 A5 B9.5 MIB3 Touch Screen Green GEM Menu?

Trying to see how to enable Green Menu (GEM) on new A5 B9.5 with MIB3 touch screen MMI. And commands for screenshots, and System Reset.

Is the process to enable Green Menu (GEM) still the same on B9.5 MIB3 cars, where VCDS is used to access Module 5F, Secure Login S12345, Adaptation Channel "IDE02122-Developer mode", and set to Activated?

Once enabled in 5F, on older MIB2 platform you accessed Green Menu by simultaneously pressing NAV/MAP left button upwards and RADIO right button upwards. What about MIB3 with no buttons only a touch screen?

Also, System Reset on older MIB2 platform by simultaneously pressing NAV/MAP left button upwards, RADIO right button upwards, PushKnob pressed too. What about MIB3 with no buttons only a touch screen?

And Screenshot by simultaneously pressing NAV/MAP left button upwards and PushKnob pressed too. What about MIB3 with no buttons only a touch screen?

I found instructions on how to access Red Engineering Menu on B9.5 MIB3, by using two fingers touching near the top right of the touch screen and holding pressed for few seconds. On older MIB2, this was done by simultaneously pressing both NAV/MAP left button upwards and MEDIA right button downwards.

Hope somebody can help!

Thanks!

For info, it looks like the Green Menu is no longer available on MIB3 touch screen units.

Many parts are locked out by "FEC" (Feature Enablement Code) as VAG move to "pay for use" business model.

Basically, VAG are now building cars with features that are disabled or only available on separate subscription so subsequent owners of a car can choose their options and only pay for the ones they desire.
