... won't affect me though- I no longer even have a mouse attached to my PC Cheers posted: 19 Jul 2007 17:01 from: Brian W Lewis Hi Martin! Thanks for that! I had stuck with .82 up til now, but I have now upgraded to .91b. It's looking good (though I don't do much sophisticated stuff like the two-monitor thing). An excellent program has just got even better. Thanks for your efforts- they are greatly appreciated. Last edited on 19 Jul 2007 17:02 by Brian W Lewis posted: 19 Jul 2007 17:49 from: Martin Wynne Hi Paul, Thanks for your comments. Multiple monitors are now supported. There is an extra dialog during startup with more information if you have multiple monitors available on your system.... especially that bit!! I hope we don't get complaints about one more tap to get Templot to open, if that is the case. Only users with multiple monitors enabled will see the extra dialog. I want to tidy up the startup ...
... missing the extra sidings and pointwork. Kind regards Dave Edit may have found the answer, I believe that the proto 87 flangeways work out at 1mm. However mentioned in this old rmweb thread of a 3 piece solder up proto87 crossing which might be too tight for P4?

... to load into Templot as a background image but frankly, I do not know where to start. You see, there is not many straight sections in this plan and very few straight turnouts. Would you suggest I try manipulating a turnout to fit and go from there or start with some plain track sections and insert turnouts into that? I am still very green behind the ears when it comes to Templot so please be gentle...

Before you can attempt that plan, you really, really need to have a good basic understanding of Templot.

107. P4 test track
... of a track, it depends on whether I'll have room in the future. You wouldn't see it on the plan, but do you want to include and obstacle course (e.g. steps, twists, gauge narrowing, etc.) on one siding to see how well stock copes with substandard track? Not sure about this for the reason above. And well done on getting the blocked timbers on the crossovers – that's a trick I haven't managed yet. Thanks for that. Regards Len posted: 22 May 2009 09:02 from: newport_rod Andy Blocked timbers – what at I was referring to (perhaps incorrectly) was the extension (e.g.) of the timbers from 39 Up Tebay mainline crossover under the first 100mm of 42 Down Tebay Main. I'm developing a plan for out own test track (I'll try and attach the box file) and hadn't addressed including that feature yet (nor have I done any timber shoving yet). As an aside the (separate) layout that this is being developed for is based on BR(WR ...
... topic: 2645 00-SF Gauges for FB track posted: 9 Mar 2015 02:15 from: Rob Manchester HI, Is there a source of 00-SF track gauges for people using flat bottom rail such as the code 82 from C&L? The normal 00-SF gauges now sold by C&L are fine for code 75 bullhead rail but are rather slack on the finer head of the flatbottom rail. Surely there must be some people building FB trackwork in 00-SF? Regards Rob Last edited on 9 Mar 2015 02:15 by Rob Manchester posted: 9 Mar 2015 03:28 from: Martin Wynne Hi Rob, Prototypically both code 75 bullhead and code 82 flat-bottom rail should have the same head width -- 2.3/4" scale (0.92mm). It's a bit odd if they are not. You may find FB rail from a different supplier is more accurate. DCC Concepts in Australia have what they describe as 00-SF gauges for flat-bottom rail, see: http: ...

Hi Rob, Many thanks for your comments. I agree. The difficulty is that it takes such great swathes of my time to create the docs and videos.

... 2020 21:45 from: Rob Manchester Hi Martin, Just having a watch of the live screen. The video is fine. Your voice is very low through the speakers- if I turn the voulme knob well up then you are partially drowned out. It sounds like you are using a mobile on top of a mountain on a windy day. Where is your microphone located? Time to put my hot and spicy pizza in the oven. Will try and check back later. Rob posted: 26 Sep 2020 22:02 from: Gordon S You're not alone Martin....

Are American units of measure available? Thanks Cameron posted: 14 Nov 2013 02:36 from: Martin Wynne CBryars2 wrote: Is there a HOn3- 36" template? Hi Cameron, Welcome to Templot Club. Templot can produce templates to any gauge or scale that you wish to set up. There isn't a library of existing templates. There are some sample files available for downloading containing USA-style templates for standard gauge and narrow-gauge tracks here: topic 1335 topic 28 You could use those as a starting point in creating your own settings. Are American units of measure available? By default Templot uses mm (millimetres) for model dimensions and inches for prototype dimensions. When you are asked for mm dimensions you can enter inches instead by prefixing the dimension with a letter i. For example to enter a ...

... During these tests I'm also ensuring that I'm only running one copy of Templot at a time, between the two machines, to prevent problems with two copies trying to access the same file. In the great scheme of things this is a minor problem though! I've not yet seen anything else awry running Templot under Vista, and taking my laptop away over Christmas relieved some boredom (Oh yeah- version 0.91c on both machines!)

I noticed your topic on RMweb. One point, I see you have set the turnouts to square-on timbering but left the timber ends centralized. Usually for modern square-on timbering the ends are in line -- real> timbering> timber ends in-line menu option. For older track you need photographic evidence to be sure. I think perhaps I should make this an automatic change when changing to square-on ...
