You will see a difference only if more than a few dozen, and only while zoomed in to the area of immediate work. cheers, Martin. posted: 9 Feb 2018 20:13 from: Rob Manchester Sorry Martin, Should have stated what it was I was using for testing. I used the Evercreech master plan.... The speed is fine though as not many of us will be using track plans that size and if we are it will be a one off because building it will be a lifetimes work Rob posted: 9 Feb 2018 20:28 ...

You may want to read the discussion here: http://www.scalefour.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p =55937#p55937 I suggest you obtain a few of each and try them on the actual rail you will be using. cheers, Martin. posted: 20 Mar 2018 08:47 from: rodney_hills Rob, Back in the early days of the 00-SF yahoo group... https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/00-sf/conversations/messages/1087 Hello, Modern-ish Lima wheels have flanges thin enough to pass through 1mm flangeways.

563. Evercreech Junction
... Bradley and Milton's S&D Loco. History indicates that this original table was 50' in diameter, so the 56' version must have been a replacement. There is a good picture of a large boilered Seven being turned on it at plate 148 in 'The S&D- An English Cross Country Railway', and, with an overall wheelbase of about 49', it was probably not unduly difficult to achieve an acceptable balance of the engine on the table. I have corrected the turntable diameter acordingly and made a few other tidying up changes on the attached revision of the boxfile.

... topic: 3202 ctrl-Z and the control behaviour posted: 29 Jan 2018 19:07 from: madscientist Martin, maybe this is the designed behaviour Say I "make the control" on a given background template, then elsewhere I select a background template, hit "D",( I'm usually doing this because I have created or suspect I have created two background templates on the same spot) I may hit "D" a few times, typically until I see the template clear from the screen, at that point, I know I have no duplicates on the screen Then I hit Ctrl-Z to restore the last deleted template, thats fine, it reappears BUT, the control template that is elsewhere disappears and is gone ??? dave Last edited on 29 Jan 2018 19:30 by madscientist posted: 29 Jan 2018 19:33 from: madscientist as an aside, A great option in Templot would be to have a double click to turn a selected background template into a control while at the same time returning the ...

Along with a few others I'm 3D printing chairs*, and I'd like to know the range of switches I've used in a plan, and the crossing angles. I thought it might be easier to keep track of this in Excel.

... topic: 3280 Diamond crossing using Pandrol Clips posted: 5 Jun 2018 09:21 from: Hayfield I have been asked to build a diamond crossing in flatbottom rail with Pandrol clips It will use the Peco Pandrol clips (the person knows they are overscale) and that the crossing will be an impression or rather than a copy of. Brian Kirby has made a very good attempt on RMweb for a curved turnout I have a few photos of a modern turnout, but none of a crossing, I have looked on Google and even Pandrol's own site without any luck. The areas most of interest are the common crossing, K crossing and check rails As I said it will be an impression of rather than a copy of using the limited plastic parts available, I know Colin has some wonderful etches, but not going down that route Thanks in advance posted: 5 Jun 2018 11:35 from: Martin Wynne Hi John, The V-crossings in a diamond are exactly the same as in a turnout, so you are only looking for pictures ...

... topic: 3352 Getting Started- from the very start.... posted: 6 Nov 2018 20:09 from: polybear Hi All, I must admit to having experimented with Templot some years ago (back in the days when it was purchased via a CD/DVD and you then had to ask Martin for a lock-release code....). However, I've done nothing with it for more than a few years and now I've decided I'm well overdue. So- are there any recent-ish getting started instructions? I've found some, but terminology seems to have changed and some web pages appear incomplete/unfinished/to do. Or is this still part of Martin's very long "to do" list?

574. scam emails
... topic: 3320 scam emails posted: 21 Aug 2018 14:42 from: Martin Wynne Hmm. Interesting. For the last few weeks I have been fending off dozens of scam/phishing emails every day. But this morning I was pleasantly surprised to find that there had been none overnight. And so far today none. Then I noticed this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-45257081 May be a coincidence, or maybe not? I know I could use spam filtering, but I have always found the filters unreliable, and likely to find too many false positives. I prefer to do my own filtering, but it can get tedious. Martin. posted: 21 Aug 2018 16:16 from: Nigel Brown Don't seem to get scam emails these days. I have AVG, and maybe that's blocking them. Nuisance telephone calls are a different matter.

575. Labels on templates
... topic: 3318 Labels on templates posted: 13 Aug 2018 16:02 from: Chris Hodge Hi Guys,I've recently started using Templot, and after a few aborted attempts, I have managed to construct part of a simple track plan, but (sorry if there is a topic on it) but how do you hide the labels on the templates so you can see just the track diagram, in order to be able to join new templates without having to zoom in and so losing the overall track plan I can see how to move, rename etc but not how to hide them. I am working in N Gauge so everything is going to be small on the overall track plan anyway, and the plan is completely hidden by the template labels, so it hard to judge the positions of new templates.

I'm trying to import an Frank Dyer track plan that's been scanned to a PDF and sits neatly on my desktop. When I go to the bit in Templot that lets me import a photo or whatever, the dialog box on the left doesn't seem to let me access the place where the pdf is.

I just ignore it and it carries on. I did find it a little while back but the window appeared and disappeared so quickly that I couldn't read it and thus couldn't report it. If it's any help it happens when there are quite a few templates on the trackpad. This laptop is fairly iffy since the Windows 10 update a while back so it may well just be down to that.
