... of course ultimately I have no control over a user's browser settings. Whether the browser actually switches to the tab is another user setting. All I can say is that using Firefox on my systems everything always works as I expect and intend. Other browsers, maybe not. That's the problem with relying solely on a web-based format -- browsers are a minefield to keep track of. I have enough to do with Templot without getting into extreme web design. For example, in the FlashbackConnect videos, why does the Android browser not support the interactive pauses? Whereas Google Chrome on the same device does? They are essentially the same browser. regards, Martin. posted: 2 Sep 2017 19:46 from: Phil O I can see most of it on my tablet and by panning across I can see the rest.

... topic: 3048 Templot on Android tablet computers posted: 20 Jul 2017 14:16 from: Martin Wynne As you know, Templot is a Windows program. Lots of folks are also running it successfully on Mac and Linux systems via CrossOver/Wine, but as yet there is no way to run it on a tablet computer (other than full Windows tablets such as the Microsoft Surface Pro range). But now Codeweavers are working on a version of CrossOver for Android tablets, Chromebooks, etc., see: http://www.codeweavers.com/products/crossover-android and there is a preview version available. Unfortunately this applies only to tablets which have Intel processors, which unfortunately mine (Huawei) doesn't, so I haven't been able to try this. But many (most?) tablets do, so I'm wondering if anyone has tried this? This raises the question of whether anyone really wants to run Templot on a tablet computer, but it seems evident that they are now very popular and the days of a home desk-based ...
... these tutorials Hi Dave, Thanks for that. It is certainly easy to do. Having a copy of FlashBack Pro 5, it seems I have a free Connect account, and it is just a click to upload the FBR file. Blueberry do the rest. I find it difficult to believe that the HTML5 video quality is watchable, but I will take your word for it. What is the least expensive way for me to get one of these iOS thingies to test? What other mobile devices need testing with Connect? Android? Here's the Connect video link again for anyone with an Android device to test: http://flashbackconnect.com/Default.aspx?id=z3LZpZ1HyGx4Mzpft5UXUA2 We don't need to know if it runs, but whether it automatically pauses while running. My Microsoft tablet runs Windows8.1, so I don't know anything about these other mobile operating systems. Are there any more? thanks, Martin. posted: 1 Apr 2015 18:23 from: madscientist Martin Wynne wrote: madscientist wrote: Martin, I can confirm that BB flashback, confirmed ...
... cache and cores to iMacs/MacBooks etc and the MacBook Air if it continues will probably in effect use a faster version of the Axx chip in whatever iPad is current. They could have gone for AMD x86 chips (they already use AMD for graphics chips), but it probably felt the right time to bring the last remaining piece they didn't control in house. Of course there is the possibility that Apple could encounter Intel's problems. Nigel posted: 23 Jun 2020 17:36 from: d827kelly APIs get added to both Android and iOS all the time, their usage however is not often forced upon users by either platform, though exceptions apply. Google has added support for the track and trace functions to Android, but, the functionality requires the user to install an App that makes use of that API. The same as per Dave Summer's link probably applies with iOS, but I've never had one of those, preferring Android personally. posted: 23 Jun 2020 17:43 from: d827kelly Nigel Brown wrote: d827kelly wrote: They could have ...
... style and tone. I don't think I have enough lifetime left for any more false starts. See: http://templot.com/companion/ Does anyone prefer the desktop version? I thought I did, but I'm changing my mind. I don't want the extra work of doing both versions if no-one uses it. On Firefox especially, you may need to right-click and reload each frame to see the latest desktop version. The mobile version should always be up to date and is working well on my Android tablet. regards, Martin. posted: 23 May 2016 15:24 from: Charles Orr Hi Martin, Personally I prefer the mobile one.

... the track planners. I'm not convinced it works very well, but I don't know how else it might be done. cheers, Martin. posted: 30 Jan 2018 10:31 from: Trevor Walling Hello Martin, I think too much worry is expended about people not being able to do this or do that. We keep hearing how Windows users do something this way or that. I don't believe this is true as Windows is changing all the time and its users manage to adapt. The same can be said about Android as well,and Linux is just the same. The key factor is people becoming familiar with a particular piece of software by just using it. I find word processing applications are much the same across all platforms. When one first encounters a word progressing program it all seems overwhelming and confusing but as ones experience increases things become second nature and one sees the generic nature of them all. This is the same for any software as is illustrated by people adopting and using Android devices. People download and start using all sorts ...
... really a problem 3 Sep 2015 14:12 from: gsmorris I run templot on a windows tablet with a big screen when needed. I have also used an iPad as an input device/graphic tablet to a pc in the past. not really a problem posted: 4 Sep 2015 18:11 from: DerekStuart Martin, If I may add to this old-ish thread. Just supposing- and I do not believe this for a moment- that conventional PC work stations become virtually extinct. Let us suppose that android or similar continues to win the tablet wars and there are too few PCs left capable of running Templot. By that time, tablet prices will have come down even further and would it be un-realistic to expect people to buy a cheap windoze [sic] tablet just to run Templot? I think not. In any case, mac based tablets run Templot under emulation and if tablets get faster you can be pretty sure android will eventually (if it cannot already) be able to emulate windoze. So no- ...
... a location where the ballast or other surface was high enough to at least partially hide the brass. As John( Hayfield) has noted the bond strength with chairs to plastic sleepers is excellent and many people just build crossings without any additional support. Chair to timber joint strength isn't quite as robust especially if the timbers have been pre stained. The ip5 sensor is a little smaller than later models but I wouldn't worry about it as the difference is very small. I bet the camera is better than my Huawei/Tesco/Android....but at least I never go out without a camera of some sort.

I have tried looking at the link above but it seems to think I am looking on an Android 'phone and won't let me see anything. The odd template 'trick' was using a 9ft straight switch with a 1:24 vee to give me my line to make a jig for setting the set. Something simple but very helpful and far more accurate (and quicker) than drawing it with a ruler. Likewise a similar simple trick of printing just the closure rail, wing and making the wing rail long (with no taper) as a better guide for bending the knuckle; I bet there's dozens of similar things ...

... not just the risk from the proverbial bus. Or from Microsoft. I'm getting very forgetful nowadays and easily distracted. I do fear that one day I will start tinkering with the Templot code and end up wrecking it, and be unable to repair the damage. What to do about it? The situation I'm minded to work towards is: 1. an OpenTemplot version (or versions) which is being developed and supported by others*, taking it in whichever direction they want to go. Templot for trams? Templot on Android tablets? Templot Lite for beginners? A Templot plug-in for AnyRail? It would start from the current version of Templot2, minus the functions which can't be open-sourced such as the PDF export. and 2. a non-open MartinTemplot version which I would continue to tinker with as the mood takes me. There are several things I might want to try -- make outside-slip say, or full chairing detail. An updated DXF export for 3D printing perhaps. But without any obligation to provide ...
... similar could be included in Templot either limited to a number of days or number of restarts? Thanks and thanks for allowing us access to this wonderful program. Fraser posted: 27 Feb 2018 08:32 from: Martin Wynne Hi Fraser, I'm reluctant to do that because it is easily defeated by changing the clock on the system. Likewise changing settings for the number of restarts. I'm absolutely determined that there should be no way to run a version of Templot which is not the current update version. Do you have an Android phone? Or someone else nearby? If you set it up as a portable wi-fi hotspot you can get internet access on your laptop from it. Templot downloads only a few hundred bytes so will have negligible effect on your data quota. Once Templot is started you can turn the phone off. from Settings, tap Wireless& networks> More tap Tethering& portable hotspot tap Portable Wi-Fi hotspot Follow the instructions to set it up for the first time.

... for Peco not allowing website links being more that they were worried companies would effectively advertise online rather than paying for space in their magazines. On the subject of perception of Templot, it is also commonly said that it's too hard and not "intuitive". But that's the case with any software. I use some specialist software at work and it also needs effort to learn. I would argue that when people say "isn't intuitive" what they really mean is "doesn't work in the way I expect from using Windows/ Android..." PS I have recently started using it after a gap of some 3 or 4 years and I found it very quick to re-learn, save for one or two more unusual functions which were lost in the grey matter somewhere.

... . It is almost as if they are more interested in making "Linux" look like a basket case. I notice the same thing with Windows 10. Any software that wants to run on their system needs to jump through lots of hoops that were not necessary previously. I notice time and again across the internet users of Windows 10 having problems with perfectly good software that hits the buffers when people start using Microsoft's latest operating system. People say Linux is too difficult or some other similar trope but then proceed to use their android device without a second thought. How many people are using obsolete Microsoft operating systems just so they can use a older favourite piece of software? I seem to have got on my high horse so had better dismount. I will post a picture of the view across the fields tomorrow instead. It is so calm an serene. Regards.

... will probably work only for images posted as attachments, or hot-linked from other sites, and where the image was directly uploaded from the mobile device. It probably won't work for images in the image gallery because as far as I can see the EXIF data is not preserved in resampling, or for images which have been edited in some graphics editors which don't update the EXIF orientation data when images are rotated in them (e.g. Microsoft Paint). I haven't tested this yet, but I will do shortly if my Android tablet is agreeable. Bear in mind that it applies only to Firefox. cheers, Martin.

... central machine would still effectively be the same, just smaller and built into the screen. My concern would not be the hardware, people like big screens and they just get bigger. Alsorts of strange contraptions were tried in the 80's/90's to replace the Qwerty keyboard but none succeeded, so that is an almost certainty to survive unless speech recognition suddenly takes off. What I would be concerned about is the operating system (OS). I could well imagine that Windoze as we know it won't exist and the likes of Android will be much more prevalent. Everybody will then be into a porting/re-writing exercise as they were at the change from DOS to Windows and it's whether or not Martin feels the inclination to do that. Having said all of that you've no idea what the guy next door is doing in his garage that might change the way we view the world.

... 40x40km tiles can be bought at 96p each. 10x10km tiles for 1:25000 are the same price with the whole of UK at 208.33+ VAT and all UK 1:50000 and 1:25000 together for £300 incl VAT (yes I chickened out at adding the VAT for the 1:25000 set). 1:250000 is free as are OSM (I think). I have found it quite useful when planning long bike rides as having the whole of the UK available was great. They also have an Android app that can load the same maps to your phone or tablet so I have all the UK on my phone.
