Is it possible to add notification about 'next leg hdg' into the main map panel (along with fields GS, ETA, ALTITUDE etc.) so the next bearing will be visible all the time while flying without need of going to pilot's log?
At the moment You can only choose in setup>instruments "Show Track" option which is actually doubling with what is being placed on DI.
‌‌Thanks‌‌

I would also appreciate to know the next heading without getting the pilot log. I like to turn to the next planed point on the aircraft HSI when I am above the current planned point. I would like to know what angle to turn to. There is a DST NXT and ETA NXT, but no HDG NXT. Something similar in purple is in the DI, but I think that's the next track, not the next heading, so different in 2 ways: wind correction and magnetic correction. Also missing is NXT ALT, but I understand this may be a bit difficult with climbing/descending before or after the point.
I do not know when these existing display items switch to the next point, but as someone suggested switching to the "next next" point 1 minute before passing the "current next" point would be nice. I wouldn't mind a distinct sound when it switches, too. 

Just a thought, but if you touch on any leg’s track on the chart, it will overlay it with a box showing Mag Heading, leg distance and time for seven or eight seconds. If the leg is really short, it will just display in the Mag Heading. Does that work for you?
