182. Templot GUI Control
... there. I have edited the attached script to remove the \Program Files folder from the path. Templot won't work properly if you put it there in Windows Vista or Windows 7. I strongly recommend that you either leave it on the default C:\TEMPLOT\ or else create your own folder for Templot such as: F:\RAIL\MODELS\TEMPLOT\ Don't install Templot in a folder belonging to Windows or a sub-folder within one. regards, Martin.

I just edited it before uploading to be something familiar to most Windows users. I seriously question your comment about using standard Windows folders. As Templot only runs on Windows (any chance of a Mac version?) it really should conform to standard Windows conventions, e.g. with the software under Program Files and ...
183. Unwanted Sleepers
... topic: 2596 Unwanted Sleepers posted: 11 Dec 2014 20:08 from: Paul Scott On my layout plan I have several unwanted sleepers that have appeared. They occur where templates join in the space between the last sleeper on one template and the first on the adjoining template in the gap where there should not be a sleeper. If I try to 'Omit' it on the Shove Sleepers box it does not highlight and will not go away. They have a different number to the other sleepers on the template and if you select it by typing in the number it just says it belongs to another template. I have tried and tried to get rid of them but this problem has got me beat. Can anyone help please. Regards, Paul posted: 11 Dec 2014 20:37 from: Martin Wynne Hi Paul, If the unwanted sleepers won't omit, you may have duplicate templates. Can you post your .box file? For details of how to get the correct sleeper spacing across template boundaries, go to: http://templot.com ...
... Geoff, Only background templates can be exported to DXF. Are you trying to export the control template? If so press the INSERT key to store it as a background template and then try again. If not, can you post the DXF file here as an attachment for me to test? Or if you don't want to do that, try opening the DXF file in Windows Notepad (it's actually a text file) and check some of the dimensions of the LINE elements. regards, Martin. posted: 5 Apr 2014 11:24 from: richard_t Would you like to upload the file here and I'll try it on AutoCAD 2014?

Click on the background template and make the control again. Now you can make some changes to that one. 11. repeat this a few more times and make some more changes each time. Still no ghosts? 12. note that while you are using make the control, you don't need to press INSERT at all. Just keep clicking on the background template which you want to change, and let the previous one be stored automatically each time. 13. it is only when you have created an additional template that you need to press INSERT to add it to the background templates comprising your track plan. 14. now repeat all ...

As for the Yahoogroups thread, thanks for the link. For some reason I deregistered from the yahoogroup, but of course there is a valuable archive on there: the group does not turn up on searches within Yahoogroups, so the link is very useful.

... us Mac users! Hi Dave, I'm not distracted but I would like to get to the bottom of the problem, because Wine plays FBR videos fine on Linux. It should be the same on a Mac. When you say the .mov and .mp4 files lack crispness, do you mean they look like this, or not as bad on a Mac? mov_video_sample.png Whatever, it's not a solution because of the massive file size, and the lack of interactive capability. regards, Martin. posted: 6 Mar 2015 00:11 from: Dave Summers Hi Martin It looks very similar.

... they are a complete rip-off. Instead of scanning the file for actual malicious code (which would be worth paying for), they simply announce it as a threat for no other reason than not recognising it -- simply because none of their other users have downloaded it.

194. Elevation
... -Note that I'm not talking about the extreme gradients that Hornby Dublo, amongst others offered. My basic question is:- If Templot is used to create plans for a multi-level network how much 'fettling' would be required? For example I've observed that many large models use spirals to transition from one level to another. At sensible gradients could native Templot allow for a change in gradient? My suspicion is not, but how far out would one practically be? (Piece of string)? regards Dave posted: 11 Mar 2018 13:12 from: Martin Wynne Hi Dave, Templot is neither 2D nor 3D. It is referenced to the rail top, so that the printed output can be used as a construction template. In other words, the length of a turnout is the same regardless of whether it will be laid horizontal or on a gradient. For a 3D representation it would need to be shortened in the 2D plan view if laid on a gradient, like this (gradient greatly exaggerated for clarity): 2_110741_270000000.png Which would ...
195. Scaling from maps
... database is used by satnavs and similar to create routes and guided walks, etc., so it's important to make sure that footpaths, roads and tracks are all properly connected together. p.s. on the OSM standard map, red dots are footpaths, purple dots are boundaries. It is sometimes confusing, especially where a boundary runs along a footpath. It is considered bad form to edit the position of a boundary, because they are derived from definitive legal sources. cheers, Martin. posted: 22 Nov 2018 22:11 from: Rob Manchester Hi Martin, Thanks for the offer :- OSM Sainsburys It is now this in the same unit :- 2001_221707_560000000.jpg You have been busy, maybe you should put some new walking boots on the xmas list Rob posted: 22 Nov 2018 22:34 from: Martin Wynne Rob Manchester wrote: Hi Martin, Thanks for the offer :- OSM Sainsburys It is now this in the same unit :- Hi Rob, Now changed.

... It's not clear whether giving consent to be contacted by other members applies only to those who are members at the time the consent is given, or also applies to any additional members who may join in future. And whether such consent is only meaningful if you can see a membership list of current members at the time, and whether such a membership list can only show members who have specifically consented to be on it.

... topic: 521 Wild Swan Magazine Storage posted: 11 Aug 2008 03:41 from: Ian White I have finally got round to collating my issues of "Model Railway Journal" and "Great Western Journal" and wish to store them vertically on a bookshelf. I enquired at Wild Swan several years ago about how I might bind them, but they did not produce anything themselves and suggested I had them professionally bound. Since this would cost too much (I have all issues of both magazines) I have spent the last couple of hours searching online but have not been able to find anything suitable. I would prefer to have binders or slipcases of 'almost' correct dimensions, rather than those designed for publications of "Railway Modeller" size. If anyone can recommend a suitable supplier I would be most grateful. posted: 11 Aug 2008 04:01 from: John Lewis I *think* you will find Modern Bookbinders of Blackburn do a suitable size binder.

So, for example, if you set a silly length of 2" ...
... The general design and handling is a bit clunky, it's a big lump on your desk compared with some of the sleek designs I have seen. No-one is going to mistake this for an Apple product. I can't say how it compares with other scanners because I haven't used them, but if you want any more info just ask.

Modern Epson scanners have improved light sources and very little start-up time, amongst other things. I sometimes wish the 3170 would pack-up so that I could justify the V550!
