... Flash? Hi James, It might, but it relies on everyone having an updated compatible browser, which is not the case. The last thing I want is a flood of support requests from people saying they can't see the videos. The great advantage of the Camtasia Player is that it works without fail on all systems, right back to Windows 95. Flash is now near universal in browsers, although there is a nightmare of different installed versions to allow for. regards, Martin. posted: 25 Aug 2010 16:07 from: BruceNordstrand Martin Have you considered just using something like youtube?

Meanwhile, I'll watch the video again and try what you say above. One other thing I can't get my head round is the number of what appears to be random templates that appear on the main track plan.

... deeper flanges than current standard. My learning from that experience was that "00" is not a standard at all- it is a guage! Full details of all the Exactoscale P&C chairs are available at http://www.exactoscale.co.uk/4mmtrackinst.html and excellent they are as well- though how you would fit them into 16.5mm pointwork I could not say having only used them in P4. Certainly, the check chairs are intended for either P4 or S4 standards. Best Regards, Howard posted: 5 Aug 2010 12:07 from: grog_polymer Thanks Nigel and Howard, Everywhere you look in UK outline model railways there is another thing to be compensated for. I do understand why people put up with the sort of running they get from Peco Code 75/100 pointwork. US outline and NMRA standards would seem a wise place to start to avoid all this! But I'm committed with Several thousands of dolars of UK outline stuff that I want to see as a dynamic display! Thanks for pointing things out. If I don't know then I can ...

I don't know how similar the "before" plan would be to your 1938 period, probably little changed. I could scan it for you?

I had hoped to park to co.uk on top of the com site but this is not proving possible at the moment. However both sites should be the same anyway. Don't forget to reload/refresh your browser view and possibly delete recent history to see the latest version. Apart from all the previous stuff on track and signals etc there is a new insulated tiebar available. No plastic parts or sleeving and very easy to fit.

I moved the peg to the near side of the curve and the transition completed. Is this anywhere in the doco's as the error message is confusing.

... went off to stick them together. While I was away, Windows crashed (surprise, surprise!) and now when I open my box file, the plan has returned to what it was BEFORE my changes. I always thought Templot "saved" everything when you backgrounded the templates? Is there any way I can get the plan back to match the printed version? I ask because I am not done printing and I feel I won't be able to exactly match what I had before Cheers Bruce posted: 13 Apr 2010 07:52 from: Jim Guthrie Bruce, If, when you re-start Templot, you say OK to restoring the previous contents of the storage box, you get back the last state of Templot. I thought that might be the case, but I've just tried it out by modifying a known layout then switching the PC off without saving the changes. When I restarted everything and started Templot and accepted the previous storage box contents, the modified layout appeared with the changes as done. I suspect that if you don't ...

Regards Dave posted: 21 Apr 2010 17:13 from: Nigel Brown There's a good diagram of a 1 in 7 crossover on page 86 of Smith's book; he seems to use quite a lot of long timbers, although that crossover is at GWR standard 6'6" track spacing. In the accompanying text he mentions a 3' spread between the arms of the V as being the point at which sleepers start to be used on the straight roads, which might help. posted: 22 Apr 2010 07:17 from: David Hiya Nigel Thanks for the addition infomation, very informative.

... in F5 and locking the switch.) The new F9 function is needed mainly for half-diamond templates. 2. the move pad origin mouse action is in effect made redundant by the drag panning function and no longer strictly needs a mouse action. It will remain in the menu but loses its shortcut. 3. pad centred on peg loses its shortcut. If you need keyboard access, use examine peg instead (toggle on NUMPAD-0, then zoom out). regards, Martin. posted: 19 May 2010 07:18 from: kenbec Martin, Just a thought:- Unfortunately you can't have one without the other.
