    AIS Target Tracking - draw tracks?

    If I am using the AIS target tracking feature to track competitors.., is there anyway I can draw their tracks?
    I understand that i can turn on "trails" for all AIS targets.., but that's too cluttered - i want tracks for just the targets i have mapped to boats 1.., 2.., and so on. 
    is there any way to do that?

    I am interested if this exists also - tried the other day, but could only find trails for all AIS targets, and ability to toggle AIS on/off.   Toggle off kept the AIS targets mapped to boats, but did not draw trails/tracks for those.

    Anyone work this out?

    There is a setting to draw other boat tracks in settings.

    I can see other boats in "Tracks" - is there a way to display for only mapped boats/boats in "Boat tracking" - I can only seem to get all other AIS target tracks or no other tracks.

    Got it now - the default track for other boat I could not see against chart background (seems to use colour of boat) - I changed to a contrasting colour and can now see it.  Thanks.
