I honestly thought it was a bug or limitation with the hand scanner that you have to constantly close and reopen it for it to highlight a path to your next quest objective. This allows it to highlight the path for as long as the scanner is open (only makes sense), and optionally only when pointing toward the quest marker (this doesn't sound like something I would use).

You don't actually need to close and reopen the scanner to highlight the path again. When you initially open the scanner, it highlights the path for a certain distance and time. When the path vanishes, point the scanner at the target quest marker (blue dot) and it will highlight the path again. It's still a pain, but not as painful as closing and reopening the scanner.
