Hi,

When creating a .png file using the 'Output>export a file' menu I find that any three way turnouts do not appear on the .png image.  Just wondering if I'm not doing something right or if it's a bug.

Cheers .. Alan

I found that a while ago, I just added standard turnout templates over the top whilst printing and then deleted them afterwards. I think it has been mentioned that the software can only handle full templates and not the partial templates required for tandem turnouts.

Hi Alan, Phil,

That's correct, but it applies only to diagram mode output.

In normal detail mode all templates should appear in the output.

In diagram mode, Templot fills colour between the stock rails. If one of the stock rails is omitted in a partial template, it can't be output in diagram mode.

The solution as Phil says is to temporarily place plain track templates over the tandem turnouts.

You can keep them in the storage box and file as unused templates and copy them to the background when needed.

cheers,

Martin.

Hi Martin and Phil,

Many thanks - I've done that and got a decent print now.

Appreciated. :thumb:
