I found this but I'm traveling and can't see if we have a similar hidden functionality:

FYI I can verify that all the steps to get to the menu in this video work. I can also confirm there is a vast HUD menu in there I will be playing with shortly to see if I can get my HUD finally configured to a usable size.
Thanks to the OP for carving out a thread for this. My HUD has been driving me insane for over a month, this should get it fixed up so I can have a size I am used to an full opacity.

The actual HUD workshop menu lets you change tilt, horizontal size, vertical size, skew, rotate, banana, trapezoid, etc etc etc.
I did not find an opacity setting but I was able to remove the box the original post started off this discussion with by tilting it so it was absorbed by the windshield. I also made the entire thing a lot smaller horizontally and vertically so I could reactivate the other two panes without them covering up the entire roadway

I don't think you are in the actual workshop hud menu but rather the regular one that is already present that doesn't really do ****.

You are definitely missing a lot. There were so many adjustments I'm not sure I even got through them all. You are correct I just used the word tilt, it's not called that and I am responding to this away from the car and I won't be back to it for some time. But I didn't use the grid, I used the HUD image and then started adjusting it off of that. The second or third adjustment is vertical, the next is horizontal and then from there you can get into all the skewing and bananaing and trapezoiding. Just keep going down. I think the cruical part you missed though was not using the test image of the display but rather of the grid. If you still can't get it I'll provide a step by step in a few hours when I go back to the car

Were you able to get further into the menu to get it adjusted to your liking? And just an FYI I know I can't see what you see but I am pretty confident that after messing with this extensively your issue is related to the image throw and not a problem with your car. With some patience I think you can get this adjusted to your liking. I was ready to give up on this, I posted several times in another thread about this and now mine is just the way I expected it to be the day I took delivery of the car.

I hear that. Let me ask you something, do you happen to have the acoustic comfort package? Or more directly, do you have the pink windshield? Because I do and I think that is part of the problem. They probably roll these out all the same but don't compensate for the difference in the glass it's projecting onto.
I hope you get it fixed up, keep us posted on how you make out.

UPDATE: I went back to the WORKSHOP menu and this time there were adjustments within the PARAMETER section of the menu with tons of fine tuning of the HUD.

Thanks again for posting this. Finally got around to testing this to see if it could fix my tilted screen but I did not see any options to fix my tilt issue. There was a warp setting, parameter setting, and test picture options. Warp setting had 7 options and they all looked the same to me. The parameter setting didn't seem to do anything at all with no options to choose from while you're in it. Fiddled around with some buttons while in the parameters area but nothing changed.
UPDATE: I went back to the WORKSHOP menu and this time there were adjustments within the PARAMETER section of the menu with tons of fine tuning of the HUD. Here's a video of it. My narration is directed towards my service advisor since I didn't really discover the solution without all of your help here. 🙌🏽
