Hello,
I don't know what I am doing wrong but the above error message has come up on several occasions while I have been moving ("twisting" using the mouse) timbers/sleepers around so that I can extend them across a diverging track in one of my turnouts.
It always happens on the 7th item after I have carried out the same procedure on the 6 previous ones with no problems.
The worst feature of the problem is the fact that Templot then locks up. There are three ways of closing the message provided, a corner cross, one in the body of the message display and an ok button. None of these work :(. The only way out has been via Task Manager and then starting over again.
This has happened 4 times so I must be doing something very wrong but it would be nice if I could get out of the situation without having to reload Templot and start shoving all over again.

As a matter of interest where did the expression shoving originate, it has some interesting connotations. :D

Regards,

ken

Hi Ken,

Many thanks for reporting it.

This is a long-standing bug which has had me foxed for years. :(

See: topic 970 - message 5680

Hopefully your detailed report may help me find it, so thanks again.

If you have ever tried to move a 15ft crossing timber, you would know. :)

If I checked every term against the urban dictionary, there would be nothing left! Finding suitable words to describe everything in Templot has been a constant headache.

What's odd is how many ended up beginning with S -- shove, slide, snake, swing, slew, shift, swell, snap.  

regards,

Martin.
