Garmin Apollo GX 50 User Manual page 161

With the May Clear Direct-To Entry Option, the
Direct-To waypoint will be inserted in the Active
flight plan, and all of the other waypoints will be deleted
from the Active flight plan, including approaches.
With the Never Clears Direct-To option, the
Direct-To waypoint is inserted before the current TO
waypoint. This is the normal, default setting. Use this
setting if you are using approaches.
The May Clear option is useful for the pilot who uses
the Direct-To function for the majority of flight
planning, and doesn't want to be bothered with a
steadily increasing number of waypoints in the Active
flight plan. The Never Clears option is useful when
you need to respond to a change ATC clearance (i.e.,
N1234A cleared direct ABXYZ intersection, rest of
route unchanged), resuming the previously entered
flight plan at a later time.
The default setting for the Direct-To Entry is May
Clear. The Apollo GX retains the last Direct-To
Entry Option setting when it is powered up.
