I'm try to draw a wagon turntable in G0G-F using  version 0.91.c following the video.

After selecting center line only I try to curve it, the turntable needs to be 15 ft dia, so I enter p90 for the radius, and it converts to 52.5mm and then I get a message saying:

"The minimum valid radius for the track centre-line is double the current track gauge.

i.e. current minimum valid radius = 64.0 mm."

While its not essential to draw the circle, it would be nice.

Hi Mike,

Reduce the track gauge for that template:

template > gauge and scale > modify current settings > modify track gauge... menu item.

regards,

Martin.
