Hello

Having started using Templot just a week or two ago, I must say I am delighted with the software and encouraged by the support that is obviously available.

I would like to construct templates for use with 5.5mm:ft Narrow Gauge, which has a small but dedicated and friendly following. The most commonly used gauge in this scale is 12mm, so flange clearances, etc., as used by the 3mm Society for their 12mm Intermediate Standard would work well, combined with track spacing and so on as used for the T-55 Templot startup size. How would I go about combining these into a customised set?

Thanks

Noel

Hi Noel,

There is a video available showing how to customize narrow-gauge settings.

See: Customizing narrow-gauge

Hope that helps, write again if it's not clear. :)

regards,

Martin.

Thanks Martin.
As I'm still on Version 0.74c, I think some of the actions shown in the video are out of my reach at the moment. I'll carry on with my learning curve for now (!) and come back to customising for narrow gauge when I am more familiar with Templot.
Cheers
Noel

Hi Noel,

I have decided to withdraw version 074b and the old static tutorials. There is a lot of useful info there but it is just causing too much confusion all round.

Please upgrade to at least version 082d and use the videos instead of the static tutorials. Details at:

pug info pages

regards,

Martin.

Hi Martin
- Done, with pleasure. Even after just half an hour I like this version better.
Thanks
Noel
