Best to take it on a "field trip" and just play around with the buttons to see what they do & what their effect is on the screen image. Take a note pad & pencil and document what looks best to you. Take the manual, too, so you can know what each button or combination of buttons is going to do ... and make note of which ones you'll likely use on a regular basis.
It's funny that you mention these things, as the ease of doing just that on the Garmin is one of the factors that changed my mind, and a direct contradiction to a statement I made about a Garmin unit I had years back. On my HB unit I dreaded having to tweak it for a different set of conditions as it seemed to be so slow going through the menus. In comparison this unit, is as quick as my phone between menus and you can make small changes very quickly. I am hoping to get it installed in the next couple of days and get it on the water.
