I know others cannot see my machine but I hope I can be pointed in the right direction.

I have downloaded the video on the creattion of a tandem but am struggling to achieve exactly the same behaviour as the video when it comes to the F5 resizing of the crossing angle.

I have followed the video, set the angle crossing options to any angle

Set the peg on FP

Press F5

Right click and select Lock switch

But, in the video the sizing appears to "swing" and resize just the crossing angle (as expected), but when I try, the switch length still resizes slowly affecting the crossing angle, as if the right-click setting Lock Switch is being ignored.

I know it must be me doing something silly or forgetting to do something, but I have tried several times without success.

Any help would be most appreciated

Cheers

Phil

Hi Phil,

Sorry I missed this message.

If you restart F5 you need to re-lock the switch each time. If the switch is locked the bar in the info panel should change to pink. Does it?

Did you remember to set action > F5 V-crossing angle options > any angle menu option?

Can you describe in a bit more detail how what you see differs from the video?

regards,

Martin.
