Is there a way to navigate to a runway threshold with version 15 other than Direct-To?

E.g. In an existing Skyview flight plan, select a particular runway at the pre-existing flight-plan destination airport?

Do the runway extended lines appear if navigating from a GNS430W with said airport being destination

Right now it's just direct-to.

Here's how it worked for me.

I was on the last leg of my flight plan flying on auto pilot, getting closer to the airfield and approaching it from within 40 degrees of the the runway I needed. I selected the runway I wanted by touching it on the display and click the 'Direct-to' button twice. The auto pilot then changed course to intersect the extended centre line at 90 degrees. As I reached the centre line it changed heading again to fly direct to the runway. It was spot-on! Of course I disengaged the auto pilot at 1000' to be safe and legal :)

It works really well. I'm very impressed.
