I might have to switch. At least on the 800, the warning stayed up until you were back on course. Granted, that could sometimes be annoying if you were off course on purpose.
The warning isn't red. The 1030+ generally tries to give you rerouting options (which makes it clear you are off course). The 1030 does something similar (but not quite as well). I would think the 830 does the same thing as the 1030+. (The firmware of the 1030+ and the 830 are very similar). The problem I have is that the devices don't figure out that you are back on courses as quickly as they should (I think they used to be faster).

No. Garmin doesn't provide the hooks for that.
