... /Switch Settings and set an A switch using the control template which had been modified to the desired timbering. However, when I apply this for other turnouts the timbering stays as per the Templot default. I have also tried copying a whole turnout and adding this but usually I get a message saying I cannot do this because it is already in the storage box. I can manually modify every turnout but for a layout 70' x 22' some short cuts are desirable! Any help would be appreciated.

Some impressive pointwork there. We need a bit more information -- the Midland Railway didn't use REA switches (introduced 1925), so if you have MR data you should probably be creating a custom switch: 2_091700_410000000.png To customize the timbering in the rest of the turnout you can use the real> timbering> timbering data... and real> V-crossing options> customize V- ...

I can't tell you why that might have happened, but the solution for Templot is simply to download and install 091b again. regards, Martin. posted: 25 Nov 2007 17:41 from: Phil O Hi Martin The emails you received were sent from the forum to everyone -- I posted "reminder" messages in the original topic announcing the availability of version 091b. Sorry for any confusion, I am probably more confused than anyone. I am attaching a screen shot of my forum page which shows a date of the 21st Nov for the posting of 0.91b and I received an email similarly dated but the contents relate to the 19th July posting.

I cannot understand why after being able to successfully open up and print off files this happening. This is complete Double Dutch to me and I wondered if anyone else has had this problem and if there is any damage to my computer and if there is a cure.

... topic: 2721 Blank after turnout posted: 8 Jul 2015 09:07 from: Godfrey Earnshaw I created a transition from curve and tighter curve.I inserted a turnout in plain track. Immediately track beyond turnout blanks. If I roam the turnout the blanking goes with it.If I make Branch Track, track is timbered.I have looked through all the "do" options.I have looked through the "generator" options. I'm puzzled, I have done this hundreds of times before and never seen this.

You need to change it to exit sleepered. p.s. except in the switch you have the timbering centres much closer than scale -- the ganger may have trouble hitting the keys. Also the vee nose is not properly supported in the A chair. Have you copied ...

... station I have failed to reproduce to my satisfaction for many years. After discovering Templot things became a lot more promising. I had always failed to to make a satisfactory interpretation in the space I had available. I was in a continuous loop trying to model the whole station in a space that was just too small. It is still a work in progress as the goods shed presents problems being on the curve. I also have spacing issues to sort out between running lines and sidings on the curved inside of the plan.

... fit, simply shorten the template at one or both ends as necessary (F4 mouse action). If the transition zone is too long to fit the space, try the adjusting the radius of one or both of the starting curves until the gap between them is smaller: make_t3.gif Zoom in if necessary. There must be a gap, i.e. the curves must not cross, but the smaller you can make the starting gap, so the shorter will be the resulting transition zone. If you can post a screenshot here or attach a .box file, it's much easier to advise. regards, Martin. posted: 1 Apr 2012 20:04 from: Adrian (ffoil) Martin Wynne wrote: Adrian (ffoil) wrote: I can get it to generate curves, but at least one end is always beyond the limits of the curve that I need to create (if that makes sense).

... the straight track as shown. Fine so far, however when I make the second turnout to connect to it there is a joggle in the track (not like in the video!). Looking closer at this track, if it is continued until it meets the straight track (as if it was part of a turnout) the tracks do not co-incide, there is a slight offset. Is that correct? I assume not! So what have I done wrong?

... to try now is to try to copy this to Templot2 and re-work it! posted: 13 Jan 2014 22:37 from: roythebus Ok, still struggling with this, I've got the Templot drawing of the original double slip to import to Templot background, now can't work out how to get that on the page to modify it. I've tried downloading the video link, but the computer says it'll take 1hr 20 minutes to download. Any more suggestions? I've now managed to copy the original Templot drawing as an attachment, I know the plan isn't complete but I used part of it to make the Vee about 4 years ago! Any comments or suggestions as to why or how to modify it to work? both roads are on a very slight curve BTW!

And how do I get rid of it? Richard, Might have got there with inadvertantly adding a bonus timber in timber shoving then shortening the main part of the template. You could try calling up timber shoving and getting rid of the oddball sleeper. Jim.

I could remove the distraction of the cluttered plan from the background, and in doing so help to speed up response, only bringing the plan back into view, as and when required to ensure things were in the right place. 3. It clearly defined and showed me where all the crossing were located, rather than the plan digitized zig zag lines which could be mis-interpreted when trying to overlay, on the plan, a complex template. The first attached box file 'Plain_Track_BASE-AK' shows the initial plain track overlay used as the start basis. The final result box file is 'Bham_New_Street_Sig4-492-BS' and will be posted immediately after this message has been launched. Be aware, that NO Timbering has been done (just the metal rails) in the final file, as this is work in progress, also I would like feedback, if you will be so kind, as to possible pitfalls in my attempt before I complete the timbers (just in case there ...
