That would have been the Heading to the next waypoint and the Alt restriction. You dont need to enter the heading to the next waypoint yourself, the aircraft calculates that for you, however you may need to edit the Alt restriction to comply with ATC for example, you would achieve this by pushing the Right LSK next to the waypoint and performing a Vertical revision.RegardsRob
