How do you set your WG-4?

I like my little WG-4 I got for my boat but..it needs adjustment even in auto mode. I am trying to come up with a plan for setting it for some basic situations instead of taking photo after photo trying to get just one balanced shot.

I am weary of experimenting and thought maybe someone here has found a way to set Auto, P, Tv, and/or User modes giving each one a setting for a basic situation like full bright sun, or indoors. Or..do you just rely on one of the shooting modes?

I am finding I spend more time adjusting this camera than I do a DSLR in manual mode! Before I go bonkers on it..does anyone have advice as to get this camera to cooperate, take a fast photo and not have to be raking through the menu over and over?

This sounds very familar - have you posted it before? Anyway, I would just set the camera to P, ISO 200 and Daylight white balance and that should be fine. My WG-£ gives me no problems.
