Does Templot do 3 rail? Hi Thor, Welcome to Templot Club. I don't know of anyone hand building 3-rail track in 0 gauge, although a few are still using stud-contact. For coarse-scale 0 gauge you may find some of the Gauge 1 track parts from Tenmille Products useful: http://www.tenmille.com You would find it helpful to join the Gauge 0 Guild and ask about 3-rail on their forum: http://www.gauge0guild.com Sorry, there is no direct support for 3-rail in Templot. However, you can represent 3-rail by printing the track centre-line at the same width as the rails (1.6mm for 0 ...
... . All trackwork was constructed from LSWR 45' Track Panels, custom switches for LSWR No 1 and LSWR No 4 switches (1891 geometry), LSWR buffer stop and LSWR 1:7 slips. These were drawn separately in Templot and imported as a track library. Should you view the layout, best to hide the labels!

I did notice in a few places that you don't have a full 6ft way running clearance between adjacent tracks. It would be worth checking over the plan with the spacing-ring tool -- tools spacing-ring menu item. Click the set ring> p-s button on the dialog to pre-set the ring diameter to the correct 6ft way for your scale. SHIFT+ CTRL+ F9 mouse action to move the spacing-ring over your plan. You can leave copies of the ring dotted about on the plan, to help you ...

Is there an easy way of going back one or two steps to get rid of these or do I have to go to the storage box and systematically wipe those I don't want from the background, bearing in mind there are some 300 templates and I probably only need about 40 of these.

Hi Tony, Just thought I would give you a few hints as to how I did my "Irregular Diamond crossing". I should have put these notes into my original reply to you but time did not allow. When I did the Vee's either side o f the diamond K crossing I used turnouts. First select a turnout such as a B6 (it does not matter at this stage what crossing angle you call up, but if you do know, roughly speaking, the angle choose the nearest it will save a little time).

726. Selecting Templates
... works brilliantly (of course) but why did I not know that? Many thanks Martin! Best Regards, Howard. posted: 13 Sep 2010 19:22 from: JFS Hi Martin, I seem to have got myself into a bit of a mess with my name lables. If I select a group, then list the names in, say, a column, it seems that Templot starts the list at the position where the previous list ended. Thus, doing this a couple of time, leaves the list a few scale miles away from the track! But I can't find how to "unlist" a group, nor how to resposition a list of names for one group independently of other name lables/ group lists. It would seem to be a useful feature if you could select a group of templates, list the name lables and then to position that list in some way. Best Regards, Howard posted: 13 Sep 2010 20:18 from: richard_t Hello Have you tried Group -> mouse action: Move labels. I ...
... , Thanks for these suggestions. I have now implemented the following changes for the next Pug: 1. Holding down the brown up-down buttons causes them to repeat. 2. There are new buttons to move a template directly to the top or bottom of the list. 3. There is a new box> sort group templates menu item on the storage box, which moves all the group templates to the top of the list. By group-selecting the required templates first, inverting selections, repeating the process a few times, etc., this should help to get the list in the desired order. Thanks again for suggesting these changes. regards, Martin. posted: 22 Dec 2010 03:50 from: Martin Wynne richard_t wrote: I wish Templot could: 2/ Search for a template given a wildcard search- then given the option of "deleting to control"/"wiping to control"/"copying to control" for a single match, or selecting one from a multiple match, and doing the same, ...

I started looking at it again properly with the tutorials and videos a couple of weeks ago.

730. American templates
... topic: 1277 American templates posted: 24 Oct 2010 20:32 from: Bruce I am considering purchasing Templot and I have a few questions. Are there templates for American railroads? I model 2-rail 0 scale and am interested in #6 through #12 straight and curved switches. Also I thought I read that templates can me modified and the exported as .DXF or .DWG files that can be used in Autocad, is this correct? Thanks Bruce posted: 24 Oct 2010 20:53 from: Martin Wynne Bruce wrote: Are there templates for American railroads? I model 2-rail 0 scale and am interested in #6 through #12 straight and curved switches. Hi Bruce, Welcome to Templot Club. First and foremost, in the UK and Templot a "switch" is only that part of a turnout which comprises the moving switch blades (points), not the whole turnout. Consequently it is meaningless in Templot to refer to a #6 switch -- this is a #6 turnout: startup_pad.png If you refer ...
731. My First Points
... bit Extended floating-point is only used internally in the processor to make 64 floating point more accurate, so should not worry Wine. I think! Whatever the relevance to hogging the machine (which is after all only an inconvenience, unless the user presses re-set!), all the other points are fine, so I'm guessing that somehow I've created particular case that I'm sure could be got round by simply deleting the template and having another go. In fact, when I emerge from the cellar having murdered a few songs, I'll give it a go (and check the other points with the'/' values) and report back.

... your approach, certainly not for everyone. Knocking through the intial tutorial is a good way of getting the overall feel of Templot. However, one of the best way of learning to use a piece of software is to apply it to a specific project you'e actually interested in and have got the incentive to persevere with. I agree that if the project you're really aiming at is at all complex then it may be better to think up a simpler one, e.g. a simple terminus with a run-round loop and a few sidings, similar but different to the Templot one. Alternatively, select bits from your project and have a go at just producing those. I reckon this sort of approach is easier than trying to learn too much at once; there is an awful lot in Templot, and concentrating on what you actually need and adding to that as necessary may be a more pragmatic approach. Just my thoughts... Cheers Nigel posted: 21 Jan 2011 16:58 from: couzenss Hi Howard and Nigel, Thanks for the above ...
... abolish it and rewrite it for the later versions of Templot.____ The "starter track plan" video is here: http://www.templot.com/martweb/videos/flash/starter/em_starter.html and was created using a later version of Templot. To follow it you need to be using version 091c. Likewise for all the other videos.____ While learning Templot you can swap to and fro between the versions, just download and install whichever you want each time. It takes only a few seconds to change. When you start using Templot in earnest I recommend that you use 091c only, as it contains a great many additional features. I'm sorry the situation is confusing. It's next to impossible for me to upgrade the program, and all the documentation and videos at the same time. regards, Martin. posted: 9 Dec 2010 15:28 from: Tim Chapman Hi Martin, Thanks for your reply.

... have some information on early SER plain track amongst my SECSoc newsletters, I'll see if I can pull it out and create a template. Lastly, I take it that the 'water' is to the south of your plan by the orientation of the incoming lines. PM me if you want information about SECSoc- assuming that you are not already a member that is. Phil posted: 15 Dec 2010 19:26 from: David Yates Hi Phil, Nice to hear from another SECSoc member (although only been one for a few months). Your assumption about where the 'water' is, is correct. What I actually had in mind when I originally drew up the plane on my Designcad 3000 system was a goods only branch coming in from the Bricklayers Arms area into the fan of sidings, with the docks branch running from there down into the Surrey Docks area, purely fictitious, but offering the potential of considerable goods traffic. The layout is intended to be around c.1895 just before the working agreement with the LCDR in 1899. I have already ...
... using a Waverley template again, I have an A6 kit, but will just use Templot templates with the kit components in future. posted: 23 Dec 2010 09:46 from: RedgateModels Well, I think I have my Waverley template sorted out 2013_230436_560000000.jpg Above is a scan of the (used) template and I've attached a .box file with my templot version. Main difference is that there are two sleepers less one around the tie bar area (J1) and another in the centre frog area (T1), nudged a few sleepers around to get a good match, I know I didn't need to do this, but it's good practice! Had to change the overall length which sorted the sleepers around the V then increased the approach length. Pretty pleased with this for a first go. As I've said though, bit of a pointless (sorry!) excercise as I'll just use a standard Templot template in future.

Regards Raymond posted: 30 Dec 2010 11:19 from: JFS Hi Raymond, Just to add to Bill's point, the same is also true of the road leading to the wagon TT in the corner. Also, I wonder why, if the Back road needs a continuous check, why would the Main not also need one? posted: 30 Dec 2010 11:29 from: JFS (sorry- clicked the send button by mistake!) Probably there are a few other places where the radius is even tighter- indeed, I worry a bit about the minimum radius which seems to be about 28 inches- are you sure even a 4 wheel wagon will cope with that? Good Luck! Howard. posted: 30 Dec 2010 11:50 from: Raymond Thanks for the comments. The road to the wagon turntable has had the check rail removed. It was originally a sharper curve but when I printed it all out full size it was obviously wrong so I've changed it. The ...

... North British line often called the Gifford and Garvald. The part that interested me was a stretch through the East Lothian Coalfield. I wanted a diorama type layout so that suggested a model in N scale. I made a start in 2mmFS but decided when Bachmann announced a 2MT in their Farish range that this was a better route to go along since then the whole model might get finished! However since the change over in direction and building a trial shunting layout using Peco "finescale" track, a Farish Austerity tank and a few coal trucks I have found some problems. 1)The track is hard to use if you wish it to comply with a photo of a scene. The flangeways are extremely generous and they and other aspects of the turnout do not conform to any published standard. 2) The current coupling system of commercial N is crude to say the least and spoils any scene. At this point I found Templot so I thought my first problem was solved. But no, Farish themselves do not seem to engineer their current chassis to ...
... remain on the initial template datum location, and you can copy them one at a time from the storage box for printing as the control template. This seemed to work but then all of the existing stored templates were changed to the same template. Am I doing this correctly? That doesn't sound right. There is no function which does that. Can you explain again? There are many ways to use Templot according to what you are trying to do. You can quickly snap together a track plan from standard templates in a few minutes, or spend days creating a single template matching a specific prototype. Are you trying to match one or more individual templates exactly to the FastTrack jigs? To some commercial ready-made track? Are you trying to match one or more templates to a specific real prototype? Are you creating a track plan? To your design or a track plan copied from a book or magazine? To a track plan matching a real map? A track plan containing customized templates? A complex formation comprised of multiple partial templates? ...
