Hi!
I know I can press the magneta leg and click leg properties to get this info, but surely there is an easier way? My intensions are to know to which heading to turn before turning. Planning ahead. Is there a way to put this info up in the left hand side, so that it is always displayed?

Many thanks in advance =)

The reason is that we do not know what the wind is doing, so we cannot show a magnetic heading. The best we could do would be true or magnetic track, and then you'd have to work out the heading from that. Track to next waypoint is what is displayed in the DI at the bottom of the screen.
