Changing the holding pattern line to a straight line

The Straight Holding Pattern tool allows you to change the holding pattern line depiction in an instrument approach profile view from the existing depiction to a straight line. Changing the holding pattern portrayal indicates when or where in the holding pattern it is safe to change altitudes or descend. The straight line depiction is the default holding pattern depiction in the instrument approach profile view.
