Way Point Markers not Showing Up

I fly in the chase position behind the aircraft because I can see the instruments and scenery better. Therefore, I like to use the waypoint markers. Lately, I’m getting markers labeled “log”, “lit”, or “lat”. Most times they are not even on the flight path. They are off to one side. And I’m not getting the next waypoint marker as I like when the above markers are displayed. I suspect an update changed the options somehow, but I have no idea what the markers are or where to look for them in Options. I did look at the waypoint setting and it seems okay. Help please.
