Track line style setting does not work

Hi All - I am running 4.8.4 and when I change the style on track lines, it does not seem to make any changes. It stays as a solid line no matter what I change it to. Color changes work, but changing the style of the track line does not.

Example: I have this track line shown below set to RED / 3 pixels / Short Dash and as you can see, its showing a solid line. It does not matter what I set the style to, it always stays solid.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Yes, this is confirmed using Windows 10, opencpn 4.8.4

So if this is not a bug, what exactly does that setting do for track lines?

As you observed: changes the color - what can make some difference

But that is a different drop down menu. The drop down menu for "Style" and all its options does not not work.

I have created a task in Tracker for it. Please vote.
