I have had a long break from using Templot due to family issues. Now i am back and re-learning the application. I am using version 91c.

I have created a diamond crossing as part of a acissors crossing. No problems with rail alignment but I have noticed extra sleepers being added whilst adjusting the crossing angle.
I have included the box file for the crossing.

When I try to sort the sleepers out, the programme hangs with a -1 error in a dialog box.

Can anyone help me please?

Thank you

Peter

Hi Peter,

It's a known issue which eluded me for years -- see:

 topic 1629

Fortunately it is now fixed in TDV, so I suggest that you join the development group and try TDV. That will also let you try the new irregular diamond-crossings. :)  More info:

 topic 1510

If you prefer to stay with 091c, you can avoid the problem by being very careful with the mouse when using a timber-shoving mouse action on an as yet unshoved timber. After clicking to start the mouse action, make sure that the mouse is not still in, or back in, the starting position when you click it again. Otherwise when you click it a third time you will get the error.

It took me 10 years to find that, and without Len Cattley's help I would still be looking. :)

regards,

Martin.
