... makes no positive contribution to the model railway world that I know of, suggests we are lazy. If you had bothered to read the contributions so far you would have seen that most of them were positive and were aimed at two objectives, i.e. to make Templot easier to understand and to create more time in planning trackwork/ less time fighting the programme. There is simply no point in adding enhancements to a programme, when probably 90% of the existing users cannot use fully what is existing anyway. Brian Lewis.

However, there is a bit more needed yet. The V-crossing noses in both the B-7 turnouts are not properly supported on the timbers. It's a good idea when using a partial template containing a V-crossing to include at least the Y- X- A- B- C timbers in the same partial template, and then shove other timbers around them to fit ...
