... . I personally found two large bugs in the Mavericks OS and spent two weeks talking with the 2IC of programming in America. They still haven't sorted it out properly. With the sandboxing of their OS by Microsoft and Apple I think this 3rd party software acceptability problem may get worse. Matt M. posted: 19 Oct 2017 17:16 from: Jon Timothy Hi Martin, I have at last heard back from Panda, and they have reclassified the Templot software as "goodware". Regards Jon posted: 22 Jul 2019 11:31 from: Kenilworth59 Hi Martin. I have been trying to download 223b_setup onto an XP and a Win7 laptop which both have Panda and it gets "neutralised" so it appears Panda have reclassified Templot again. I thought I'd mention it sooner than later, at the moment I do not have time to work this out although I am fairly pc competent. Cheers Paul posted: 22 Jul 2019 12:19 from: Martin Wynne Thanks Paul.

... topic: 3107 Lining up crossover turnouts, expanding parallel curves posted: 13 Oct 2017 10:04 from: Damien Morris 0eda7dda3d887297a0b1fb0a1ed4cfd0.p ng What is the best way to line up and bridge the 2 turnouts on 2 expanding parallel curves? Last bit needed before I have to go back over the layout and go through sleepers. Attachment: attach_2531_3107_conwy.zip 216 posted: 13 Oct 2017 11:50 from: John Palmer I would do it by making TL533 the control template, then making the crossover by using Tools -> make ordinary crossover. Before doing this, however, you need to adjust the turnout side adjacent track centre for TL533 so that the crossover thus formed aligns with the adjacent down main line (PR477). Because TL533 and PR477 aren't running parallel here, you will need to pick an arbitrary point on PR477 at which to measure its current offset from TL533 then make some adjustments after the crossover is created.2129_130634_140000000.png As the image shows, I picked a point on TL533 lying opposite the expected mid point of the crossover, slid the peg to this ...

I have 3 British and two US narrow gauge settings and maybe another one or two so it would be good to have some more space. I know you back away from including NG in the presets due to there being so many. I bet you can't resist suggesting I make the changes to the source code myself- I think I will leave that to the experts.

... topic: 3493 Dot Matrix printers !! posted: 24 Aug 2019 20:11 from: Rob Manchester Hi Martin, Is it your opinion that a wide carriage dot matrix printer is still fine for use on Templot printouts? It is a long time since I used one at work, does a 24pin head give an advantage in our situation? Met a nice chap this afternoon called Carl who is looking to start using Templot and he has access to a couple of dot matrix printers that take the old tractor fed 14.5 x 11 inch paper. He would be using the output to build track on rather than producing works of art so just basic quality should be fine. Thanks Rob posted: 24 Aug 2019 21:04 from: Martin Wynne Hi Rob, Templot began life driving a dot-matrix printer. It's a long time since I tried one, but all the code is still in there. Just select impact printer in the printer calibration dialog. Templot then makes a few changes to the output, such as removing all solid area ...
... topic: 587 Diamond Crossings- how to go below #2? posted: 11 Oct 2008 09:28 from: BruceN Hi all I am currently in practice mode using a couple of plans I have. On these there are tracks crossing each other at "odd" angles, in both cases "other" RR lines crossing mine. On both of these I have managed to get diamond crossings in place but cannot get the crossings to work as Templot treats them like turnouts and as such does not allow crossing angles less than 2. So my question is, just how do you make crossings into a buildable template for those that cross closer to 90 degrees?

354. Help with printing
... an Epson DX4850 and all other printing from within Templot 0.91c (or other programmes) is fine. During printing the processor load goes to about 50%, memory loading is around 45% and there are regular spikes of hard drive activity but nothing appears to be maxing out. Any ideas would be welcome as I actually want to get on with the sequence of 3 double slips from the carriage sidings to the dock lines rather than be mucking around with printers!

... have finished drawing, I convert everything- including text, to curves- it makes for faster lasering, so I cannot complain. But starting with curves is a pain. In essence the system effectively welds everything into one and CorelDraw likes to weld rectangles- not lines. I am sure there is a way round this, but I will have to experiment. But the outline is there- just as you would see it in Templot, so the possibilities are there.

... you don't want to divert the vehicle to one side or the other. Note in this case that the switch rails converge as part of a turnout, and don't jam the wheels -- they just fall off in the dirt. Less damage to the track. In this case there are three positions- closed left, closed right, or open. It is possible I have got the names the wrong way round. Sources are inconsistent. Anyone care to confirm? cheers, Martin. posted: 12 Jul 2019 19:11 from: Jim Guthrie Brechin Station, Caledonian. http://dev.caledonian.daniel-waghorn.com/uploads/27356326_1763981270332753_13314877 166994260_o.jpg Jim. posted: 13 Jul 2019 03:39 from: Martin Wynne Jim Guthrie wrote: Brechin Station, Caledonian. http://dev.caledonian.daniel-waghorn.com/uploads/27356326_1763981270332753_13314877 166994260_o.jpg Jim.

I am not going to be as vulgar as to propose rates and even the scope here suffice to say that there are 8 points, no slips or other such silliness and it is in SF00 (surprise hey!)
