Projecting waypoint on an eTrex 20?

I read several reviews that say it has the ability, but can't find anywhere how to do it. Anyone have a 20 or 30 and done it?

 

I don't have the etrex but the usual Garmin convention is to go to the waypoint page in the waypoint manager. Select the waypoint then under menu there is usually an option to project waypoint from there.

Go to the Waypoint Manager and choose a waypoint. Then push Menu, and choose "Project Waypoint.". Before you do the projection, go to setup and choose magnetic or true, mils or degrees. You enter the bearing first, then the distance. You can then save this as new waypoint, name it, and goto it. So you need to convert your current position to a waypoint before you project from it. Or, save any POI to a waypoint if you want to project from it..
