I am now on the same version as you after a re-install of Lazarus. Seems odd that a version downloaded a few months back now is so out of date. Program builds and runs just fine.

... shift the position or change the direction of a fixed group of templates you can do that quite easily. With the group in the new position, you would then probably use the make transition function to link it back to the existing tracks. Rotation takes place around the notch, so you may want to position that first to make it easier to see what you are doing. Here is a bit of Jing video showing those functions (the single key alternative shortcuts are BACK-SLASH and FORWARD-SLASH). Wait a few moments for the video to load over the image: Music© Kevin MacLeod But if it means changing a radius or transition curve I'm afraid you can't do anything except work on each template individually to align them over a new centre-line. The video below shows the align function being used to convert an existing string of templates to a new centre-line. If they are standard templates it is usually easier just to align fresh ones as required. But if these templates have been customized for your design, they can ...
404. metafiles!
... TemplotSketch (closed-source). Likewise TemplotPDF perhaps, for the PDF export, which also relies on metafiles. cheers, Martin. posted: 10 Nov 2019 02:11 from: Martin Wynne The metafile export is now working in T3 quite well. Metafiles are vector files. That's great because instead of containing an actual image, they contain the instructions for drawing the image. Which means they don't have a fixed size and can be drawn crisply into a specified rectangle of any size. What has surprised me is how few graphics programs are able to handle metafiles properly. In fact I haven't found any. Gimp and Inkscape won't load them at all. Irfanview and Microsoft Paint convert them to bitmaps on loading, which means loading is very slow, and likewise panning and scrolling. An old version of PaintShopPro which I use a lot has the wit to ask you what size to load a metafile into before doing so, but then makes a mess of the aspect ratio. All of them crash up with a layout-sized metafile. The ...

... . I would also be concerned about arm-ache, and I'm almost obsessive about keeping my screens clean and free from greasy fingerprints! Having said that, I could see touch screens being used in conjunction with the Snap function to drag templates around, or to drag lengths or radii of templates so there is some potential there! I do actually quite like the idea of touch screens generally, but not sure how long-term use would work out. After all, I can't even use a mouse for more than a few minutes now! I'm very happy with NOD32 V4 and I'm not sure I'd want to trust Microsoft with my anti-virus protection. My feelings exactly, except substitute Kaspersky for NOD32 My experiments with Windows 7 have ground to a halt as I just have too much stuff that won't work. I've even reverted my desktop PC back to XP after a brief dalliance with Vista.

Well, I am pleased to have made relatively few changes on this version and have the directory population/file display working OK for both JPEG and PNG options.

Here are the general notes: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --- Setting Trim Margins Templot prints trim margins (normally in magenta-pink) around all four edges of each printed page comprising your template or track plan. Trimming is necessary because very few printers can print to the extreme edge of the sheet of paper, or position it with great accuracy before printing on it. By trimming each page along margin lines which are printed as part of the drawing image you are assured that the pages will fit together accurately. Templot normally sets the trim margins to use nearly all of the printable area on each page. However, because printers and paper sheet sizes vary, this usually means that the trimmed page dimensions are not round figures and do not match the printed grid lines ...
... - changing the hand makes a mirror image of the template. If the curved template is part of a track plan, this will obviously destroy the alignment. template> invert handing, or CTRL+ X, maintains the alignment in the track plan, but swaps the divergence to the opposite side. For a plain track template there is no visible change, but the MS and TS sides swap over. The best way to understand the difference is to try it. Start with a curved turnout. Dab CTRL+ H a few times. Then dab CTRL+ X a few times. It soon becomes clear: handing.png regards, Martin. Parts of Templot Club may not function unless you enable JavaScript (also called Active Scripting) in your browser.

... Camber which also has the layouts in (plus my drawings for the 2 steam locos and the Bagnall coach) I have thought about doing a Rye Town with interchange to the projected KESR extension to Rye, but if I take that approach would re-route the KESR down the Rother valley with a terminus behind the row of houses on Military Road, effectively at right angles to the SECR main line.

... make counting easier: harrogatehaworth_light.jpg© Roderic Cameron I've gimped the image and re-sized it based on the length of the check rails and the most likely length of the top of the FPL plate (which I've assumed to be in the same plane as the rail top). It turns out that a B6.5 CLM (6.46 RAM) with generic crossing fits quite well, and that just happens to have 24 timbers between the rail joint and the check rail (timbers J2- T11): harrogatehaworth_b65.png harrogatehaworth_b65_1.png I will post a few more notes about the gimping later.

... 2010 22:18 from: Martin Wynne Dear all, Some members have been having trouble receiving emails from Templot Club. This mainly applies to free email providers such as Hotmail, etc. They make their own rules about which sites to block, allegedly for sending spam. It seems that the Data 1 servers have recently been blocked by Hotmail -- for no reason that anyone can determine. There is no easy solution to this, because even if we get the block lifted now, it could be imposed again in a few days time, without warning or explanation. As an alternative, I can offer Templot users a free mailbox on templot-users.co.uk This is hosted on the same Data 1 servers as Templot Club, so there is no risk that emails from Templot Club will ever be blocked. As a Templot user you can have an email address and 10MB of mailbox space to use for Templot Club emails. You can fetch your emails via POP3 in your usual email program, or view them as webmail if you prefer. By using this ...
415. Bullhead fishplates
... bolt fishplates for joining bullhead rails? I remember them being mentioned in a topic a while back but a quick search didn't find it. Were there regional variations in their use? I am guessing they would not have been used in faster main line settings or in more recent times. "British Railway Track" does mention the use of these shorter 9 inch fishplates and comments that 4 bolt fishplates were the best option. Here is a poor quality pic( of GWR origin?) 2001_111830_180000000.jpg Should we be putting these on a few lightly used sidings? Rob posted: 12 Oct 2020 00:08 from: Matt M. Hi Rob. These were popular pre WW2. The Idea is they leave a shorter unsupported length of rail at the ends of the panels. This was supposed to counteract dip which is an issue at rail joins which collect excessive wear and damage as the wheels pass over. Yes they were seen on main lines. Which companies and where would require research. They passed out of favour in the 1950's. Regards, Matt M ...

... topic: 3308 tiled maps -- annual subs posted: 18 Jul 2018 17:36 from: Martin Wynne Friends, It is a year since I introduced the tiled background maps in Templot, and the NLS API subscriptions are now coming up for renewal in the next few days. Unfortunately the current Templot donations fund is looking a bit thin, and won't cover it. The API for the superb 60"/mile maps of London in the 1890s is £99+ vat. The API for the 6"/mile maps of the whole of GB in the 1900s is £199+ vat. If you find the tiled maps useful, you might like to consider chipping in towards the costs. There is a Donate button at the top right of every page on Templot Club, or go to: http://templot.com/martweb/templot_donate.htm Thanks. Just to be clear, this is for the NLS tiled maps. The screenshot maps are free. The tiled maps are much easier to use, and can be extended to any ...
