... 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 ...
902. SATA drives 150/300
... topic: 154 SATA drives 150/300 posted: 10 Sep 2007 21:04 from: Templot User -- --- from Nigel Brown -- --- Hi all Apologies for this simple but very O/T question. Are SATA 150 and 300 fully compatible? I have a motherboard with a SATA 150 controller which drives a now failing SATA 150 disc. Current SATA discs all seem to be SATA 300. So can I just plug in a SATA 300 disc? I'd be surprised if you can't, but thought I'd consult the pool of experience on this list first. cheers Nigel posted: 11 Sep 2007 04:59 from: Templot User -- --- from Matt Harper -- --- Hi Nigel In theory the answer is yes and most drives have a 150 limit jumper on them in case you have problems, but like all computer parts, you never know till you try it.

The constant scrolling and zooming is annoying! Hi Mick, If Templot is constantly zooming, you may have inadvertently set the zoom free option. Change to the normal zoom locked setting: 2_241048_570000000.png With the zoom locked, it will change only if you change it yourself. Some of the make tools do scroll the trackpad view, to ensure that the newly created control template is visible. I have not noticed that being annoying, or had any other reports to that effect. But I will look at that again in the next program update. You can revert a view change and/or set up to 4 fixed "views" to which you can return at any time ...

907. Baseboards
... topic: 3583 Baseboards posted: 19 Dec 2019 02:10 from: Mick Just one question, can I enter the size of the base board and then fit the track to it? Regards Mick posted: 19 Dec 2019 02:33 from: Martin Wynne Hi Mick, Welcome to Templot Club. Yes, there are several ways to create baseboard outlines on the trackpad. If the baseboard is rectangular, the easiest way is to use the quick baseboard function like this: 2_182126_430000000.png That creates a rectangle in the background shapes functions. They are saved in a BGS3 file separately from your track plan so that you can try different track plans on the same baseboard(s) without entering the board details every time. cheers, Martin.

913. menu box size
... I have rather grown to like it. Thanks for the idea Tom. As I said, it is easy to overdo it, so I added 5 more. These are the 6 items (in larger blue text/orange) which are probably used most often: 2_071254_380000000.png So as a trial, this will be in update 225b shortly. I can't be sure how it will look on other folks' systems, so depending on the feedback, there may rapidly be a 225c without it. cheers, Martin. posted: 10 Dec 2019 15:45 from: Tom Allen Thanks Martin, already better for me.

... of the "Make" commands, the new template appears, but the previous control vanishes from the background. These "disappeared" templates (about 20 of them by now) all appear in the Box, but I can do nothing to make them appear on the Background. I must have done something to make this happen- it was working fine last time I used it- but how reverse it? And how do I get the invisible templates onto the background? 1129_160311_190000000.png Many thanks, Howard posted: 16 Jul 2019 10:25 from: Martin Wynne Hi Howard, I think you have accidentally pressed SHIFT+ END, indicated by the fact that the top buttons have gained a pale green background. Press it again. See: 2_051958_200000000.png Any background templates which are entirely outside the boundary rectangle are not shown on the trackpad. This is intended to speed up screen response when you are working on a small part of a large track plan. More explanation of that here: topic 3207 p.s. your post reads a bit oddly. I know ...

I've also seen the same phenomenon, but just edit the install path when I see that it's not correct. Edit- Templot does of course remember where it was installed!

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.
