So you want it to trace your location as you swing around at anchor? Like in the picture below?

The CE guys have probably gone over this with you, but as I recall there are three criteria that will trigger a mark on your track. They are

1) Time interval

2) Distance covered

3) Change in heading

I had a similar issue and played around with these setting (I think you right click on the track to access them). I don't remembered exactly what changes I made, but for anchoring I expect heading change and time interval are probably most important. And you will need a good heading sensor (specifically not a GPS) for the heading part to work.

That said, I think there have been times when the boat has been moving around and the track hasn't been dropping points as expected. But I haven't dug into it to figure out what's going on.
