Reference by screen
Every FINISH screen, reproduced and explained: what each area, each button and each setting is for. This is where the F1 key leads.
Each page starts with a reproduction of the screen, filled with the invented sample data (the Coupe Hollywood long track competition at the Starford oval, SKF and HSK federations), and its numbered callouts; then one section per button, field or command. What exists only in one activity carries a badge: Competition, Training (Demo behaves like a competition). A setting that is saved but not yet used by FINISH says so.
