841. Access violation
... topic: 3424 Access violation posted: 1 May 2019 10:50 from: Stephen Freeman Hi Martin, Think I know how it happened but here is the error message "Access Violation Address 00402CF9 in module templot_2.exe Write of address 38B1305C. Happened when trying to save sketchboard file on closing Templot but had already closed the sketchboard file (I think). You might want to trap this somehow. I have managed to repeat the error.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to reproduce it here. But you say you can reproduce it, so it should be fixable if you can give a detailed recipe of exactly what steps cause it. Thanks. Are you saving files locally, or to a network drive, or a synchronised or cloud-based folder? cheers, Martin. posted: 2 May 2019 16:03 from: Stephen Freeman As I said ...
... topic: 3452 Templot update version 223b now available posted: 10 Jul 2019 03:54 from: Martin Wynne The latest Templot program update is now available. Version 223b. Your copy of Templot should update automatically if you restart it and follow the instructions. If you have the Templot Video Player open, please close it first. If you have any problems with that, see the download and notes at: http://templot.com/companion/installation.php I have put the release notes for this version in a separate topic: topic 3451 There is also a link to them on the trackpad help menu in the program. Discussion about them goes here, because that is an admin topic for my keyboard only. cheers, Martin.

844. Using backgrounds
... example my local County Council has a map online showing the locations of winter road grit bins for residents' use. And when you zoom in to the maximum extent, suddenly you get this: 2_231403_440000000.png Worcester Tunnel Junction. Here's a direct link to the above map: http://gis.worcestershire.gov.uk/WccGISOnline/maps.aspx?xmin=385816&ymin=255770&xmax=385929&ymax=255825&l =40#top These are fine as Templot backgrounds. For example this turnout is found to be a D-10: 2_231419_130000000.png The switch toe marks are very faint, but are there (ringed red above). Align this to the blade tip marks in Templot. These images are infringing OS copyright, so I will leave them up only long enough for you to get the idea. Otherwise it is off to the tower for me. For more info about fitting track to background maps, see: http://templot.com/companion/index.html?swell_function_ctrl_f10.htm regards, Martin. posted: 23 Jan 2016 19:48 from: ...

You must enter the X,Y screen co-ordinates manually: 2_081241_080000000.png With multiple monitors you will probably need to do some trial and error. Enter -1 to return it to the default position.

... : 9 Aug 2019 21:26 from: Rob Manchester Hi Martin, That looks likely to be a very useful addition to Templot. Look forward to it soon. While not the way you would prefer people to use Templot I can see a lot of 'beginners' using it to join up templates scattered over the workpad- in a similar way to joining up the turnout 'paper' templates used to be done by many on the baseboards. That is assuming the beginner can find the menu and recognize the terminology Rob posted: 10 Aug 2019 00:58 from: John Palmer Very useful addition to the toolkit- looking forward to using this when the update comes around. Thank you, Martin. posted: 11 Aug 2019 13:03 from: Martin Wynne Thanks for the comments. I've taken this a bit further, and included automatic trimming of the background template. It can be undone if not wanted using undo changes. Also the start position for a fillet radius can be selected with the peg, CAD-style. Here's a bit more ...
... this 3004_291356_250000000.png posted: 29 Nov 2017 19:03 from: Martin Wynne Hi Dave, The reason for that is that the upper transition curve (from which you created the lower one) was misaligned with the straight. Consequently, so was the lower one. In order to make the video, I had first to correct it. Here's the video clip: http://flashbackconnect.com/Default.aspx?id=ueSTP8X4r6mKuQmxXcZanA2 .box file attached. regards, Martin.

... longer would be to reduce the gap and therefore the likely hood of wheels bumping through crossings. If you feel it is workable are there downsides to this approach? Kind regards Andrew posted: 24 Jul 2017 01:45 from: Martin Wynne Hi Andrew, Knife-edge sharp vees look awful to anyone familiar with prototype track, and there shouldn't be any need to use them in EM or 4-SF (00-SF). The prototype blunt nose width is 3/4 ", which scales to 0.25mm (10 thou) wide at the tip. With 1.0mm flangeways each side, the widest part of the crossing gap just in front of the nose will then be 2.25mm across between the wing rails (and it's the same for all crossing angles). EM profile "kit" wheels are 2.3mm wide minimum, so it is physically impossible for them to fall into such a gap and the wheel remains fully supported on the wing rail before reaching the vee. If you use RTR-type wheels or Markits driving wheels, they are ...
... topic: 3487 Timber shoving on crossovers posted: 18 Aug 2019 10:04 from: Hull Paragon I have read many pages of information on timber shoving but I cannot find a answer to this particular problem. (Apologies if I have missed it somewhere). I have set out a crossover and have attempted to shove timbers to places which I think look reasonably right! The problem is that on some timbers, after moving them, the image of the original timber/sleeper remains. This 'double' image is printed out on the template. The screenshot below should illustrate this. 3501_180459_360000000.png In my ignorance, I have tried a number of tweaks to get rid of the residual image but the problem persists. Could anyone help me with this please? Thanks Ray posted: 18 Aug 2019 11:05 from: Martin Wynne Hi Ray, Welcome to Templot Club. You have created duplicate copies of your templates. Normally they are difficult to see because they are identical on top of one another. But when you make changes to one but not ...

... : 1. It is no longer necessary to have an internet connection in order to run Templot2. It will still check for updates on start-up, but allow you to continue working if you wish, or if there is no internet, or the Templot servers are down. I made this decision after an incident last year which proved that the rationale for a forced update wasn't working. I realise this means that I can't prevent some folks from going on using the same out-of-date version for 5 or 10 years or forever, but if so please don't give any demonstrations or advice to beginners or other users. Or expect any help and support here. 2. There is a new fixing peg position, peg on dummy vehicle bogie pin: 2_092133_290000000.png This can be used in conjunction with F8 rotate on the bogie pin to align the dummy vehicle across template boundaries where there is a discontinuity in radius.

... probably produce that in delrin. The main issue is to hold the rail vertical and square to the bed. I can then program in the different tapers as required Dave, Remember that you need to put a bend in the rail when doing crossing nose rails so that there is full web support under the ends. I dare say you could mill crossing rails with the rail straight and do a bend afterwards, but that might get a bit complicated if you're trying to do a nice splice as well. Jim. posted: 10 Dec 2015 01:56 from: madscientist Yes Jim, I'm aware of the issues at the crossing nose, milling isnt much of a time advantage, there.

... topic: 3517 Match Primary Monitor posted: 4 Oct 2019 12:10 from: Richard Benn Hi Martin, Not sure if this is a bug or something in my settings. On start up when using my saved preferences, if I click "Match Primary Monitor Only" the display almost fills both displays. This doesn't happen if I start without using saved preferences. It's not a big deal because it only takes a second to resize the screen, but the issue persists even though the screen is resized prior to closing. I have even tried saving preferences with the screen reset to one screen but this makes no difference. My prefs.sk1 file is attached. As I say, not a biggie but thought I'd mention it in case you want to look at it.

859. Crossing baseplate
... produces enough of a reduction in the overall height to produce the subtle effect required. If you try to file down the top edge, you will probably overdo it. The reduction in top rail level at the Vee nose is there to cater for the coning of the tread as the flange moves away from the wing rail as it crosses the flangeway gap and drops slightly before being supported by the tip of the Vee.
