Default This is embarassing

So...Playing for years, but never figured this feature out...

How on earth do I use my plotting tools over lines I have already plot?

i.e. Plotting my course from my fix, and also plotting the enemies heading from my fix..

Everytime I just hover over the plot lines and the only thing I can do is modify that plot line...

I can't wait to hear how simple the answer is and how dumb I am.

How about to zoom in maximally, anchor the line and then zoom out?
Is that what you mean?

No no.

I am plotting my course going 250 from my last known position. I also want to plot a course from my position to the convoys position (all using the ruler). I've seen people do it in videos, but they put on plot line down for their course, then they put another plot line down over the first one for the bearing to target. I hope that makes sense... If not just watch Tonics latest video when he plots his bearing to knovoy contact and his position.

I have to admit that I don't really understand what the issue is, probably because I never do such detailed map plotting. Maybe Tonci him self will jump in and solve the mystery...
