Default Any way to get to the Map screen with one ckick?

Just bought a new 2016 ES 350 for my wife to replace 2010 ES 350 which was totaled last week.
We both find that navigating menus is pretty cumbersome especially compared to the 2010 one and also BMW with a very intuitive idrive.

The biggest problem in our mind is no map and back hard buttons. The home screen could be configured but only to a split screen.

Anybody figured out a way to get to the navi screen in one ckick but without the joystick?

[QUOTE=mcomer;9500298]In the upper corner of the 1/2 screen section is a small menu tab.
Touch it and see four (4) of five (5) possible screens to display.
At the bottom it allows for changing the layout. Choose the single
panel and then choose Nav. Good to go. When you want the
weather channel just press the "talk" button on the steering wheel
and say "show forecast" or "show weather" and it will pop up. When
you need the Radio hit the Radio hard key on the dash. When you
want the phone book tap the "off hook" button on the left wheel spoke.
If you have an iPhone press the "off hook" longer until Siri trills and

Thank you mcomer! This should also work on my wife's 2015 ES350. I will give it a try next time I am in it.

Thanks for the reply. The problem is that I don't see the singlE layout - only 2 way and 3 way split layouts are available
