Hi - Ben has it right. I just went to C Hopkins and set it up as you - same thing as you. Since you're already at you won't get a progressive taxi line. Also, you're confused about the terminology - Option 7 is "Taxi for Takeoff - Departure West" That doesn't necessarily mean an EAST/WEST runway - rather it lets ATC know which way you want to turn after takeoff and they deal accordingly.
Try it again and select one of the gates or parking as your starting point at CH. Then go thru the procedure - you will see the progressive taxi line to the active regardless of your departure direction.
HTH,
Vic
