Overfly Waypoints?

[n77737 14]

Is there a way to force the FMC to overfly waypoints added to a flightplan? Normally the FMC will anticipate the turn to a new course and turn before arriving a a waypoint but there are circumstanses where you want to actually pass over the waypoint before starting the turn. It can be done in the definition of a STAR or SID. How do you do it by directly typing into the FMC?Dave
