On other well-modeled aircraft, I have become accustomed to entering a VOR nearest my destination in the FMC Fix page and set it to 40nm. This helps me identify my descent crossing restriction for Radar Contcact. On the MD however, I enter the VOR and "40" for the distance, but I don't see any range rings. Is the Fix page modeled differently in this bird? Is there suposed to be a green range-ring like other aircraft?

Thanks...
