Appearance Day Color and Night Color does not change (using 16.50 version)

Might want to post a short video clip of making the change and nothing happening, as this feature works just fine on my Montana 700 v1650 and 750i v1650.

Thank you. 

The Mode at top of menu is set to Auto, so stays in day mode until night fall.  Change mode to night to see night colors. 

1. It IS night when the video is taken.

2.neither Day or Night works.

3. When setting mode manually to day or night and changing the color does not work.
    this is explicitly tested.

1. But does the GPSr know that? No, because you have no GPS signal (see empty bars at top left of screen).

2. Those are the only two options, so one or the other will always be active, there is no third middle ground....

3. Might want to revisit your testing methods....

Yes my GPS know that, because I manually override by selecting an option, and
nothing changes whether I have a gps signal or not. Also you do not need a GPS signal
at all to change a map color. This also always worked before upgrading the software.
And no: downgrading to a previous version is not what i call a solution to broken functionality.

In the video you have Mode set to Auto. This setting requires a GPS lock to determine location and time before Day or Night mode can be automatically enabled. 

Hello, 5616606 I am hoping I have understood the issue well enough but it appears you are wanting to change the mode from day to night but you are only changing the colors of that mode. 

Mode

Sets a light background, a dark background, or automatically switches between the two based on the sunrise and sunset time for your current location.

Day Color

Sets the color for the selections made when in day mode.

Night Color

Sets the color for the selections made when in night mode.

______________________________

You are only changing the color for selection made while in day or night mode which is why you aren't seeing a change. If you want it to switch from day to night you will need to change the MODE selection. 

Hi Garmin-Leslie,

Thanks for the answer. By setting the mode explicitly to day or night and change color had no effect. This is also the way I have tried it before, but maybe not described it enough in my question. The map does not change from color. I have added some example screen shots. Also I have tried: Factory reset my device, (manually) removed all maps, reinstalled maps, re-installed garmin connected app. This all had no effect.
